Enter a new era of edge scaling today: Unleash innovation and agility with Juniper Networks Mist Edge, our new compact and ruggedized ME-X6 appliance.

Legacy wireless LAN solutions often stem from outdated architectures that lack the necessary scalability, reliability and agility to meet the diverse needs of today's organizations. In today's fast-paced, connected world, where users, devices and applications are constantly moving to the edge, organizations are increasingly demanding seamless communication, collaboration and data access.

To meet customer demand for AI-native wireless agility and scalability at the edge of the campus while avoiding the limitations of traditional wireless controllers, Juniper Networks has launched the Juniper Networks Mist Edge (ME-X6) appliance.
Juniper Networks Mist Edge supports data centralization. This is a significant leap forward for organizations limited by traditional network designs and for enterprises looking to deliver a superior wireless mobility experience for guests and remote access.

The new ME-X6 appliance combines a variety of powerful features into a compact,
ruggedized frame: with four 10/25G ports, the
100G capacity;
Supports up to 100,000 clients;
Providing future-proof capability for growing campus bandwidth requirements.

Juniper Networks Mist Edge is ideally suited for hospitals, universities, retail or manufacturing industries with large hybrid infrastructures. When Juniper Networks Mist Edge is used, the Juniper Networks Mist Microservices Cloud and the Mist AI engine provide a powerful advantage with deep data analysis. This seamless combination delivers agility, reliability, and simplicity of operation and maintenance, while also leveraging dynamic segmentation to simplify and optimize large campus roaming and provide security for the IoT.

More than just another networking solution, Juniper Networks Mist Edge is your ticket to modernizing your architecture. It's your ticket to modernizing your architecture, freeing your campus from outdated technologies and exploring the transformative opportunities of decentralized, agile networks.
Powered by Mist AI, Juniper Networks Mist Edge delivers AI-native intelligence and agility directly to access points (APs). Imagine automated adaptability and performance optimization for every hotspot at the edge of an ever-changing campus network.

Now you no longer need to dismantle or replace your existing network infrastructure; Mist Edge seamlessly connects your legacy systems to the modern cloud, taking your campus into the future. With standards-based tunneling, you can migrate to Juniper Mist's microservices architecture incrementally, one WLAN at a time, with as little or no downtime as possible.

Imagine the following challenging scenarios:
Managing guest Wi-Fi and factory IoT devices on the same campus network;
How to secure student connections and research projects on a campus Wi-Fi network;

Sound risky and stressful? With Juniper Networks Mist Edge, there will be no more of this chaotic scramble for resources - it will be a well-planned, seamless transition. You can connect different WLANs to different Juniper Mist Edge devices, ensuring that your students can watch TikTok to their heart's content while safeguarding your professors' videoconferences from interruption. It's like building several invisible data superhighways, each customized to the flow of information and the need for innovation, and avoiding accidental exposure of critical information.

Say goodbye to network downtime. Juniper Networks Mist Edge's flexible clustering can handle networks of any size and instantly switch to other nodes in the cluster when needed. No matter how many devices you have or how much data you're pushing, Juniper Networks Mist Edge provides optimizations to ensure smooth performance. Even in the worst-case scenario, your access points can automatically jump to other data centers, providing you with a smooth connection no matter what happens.

Wired and wireless networks are not only critical to business, they are a central pillar of operations. The importance of wired and wireless networks continues to grow as they are required to support an increasing number of mobile and IoT devices, along with the variety of hardware, operating systems, and applications required for operations. Traditional architectures are highly reliant on manual operations and are network-centric, and therefore lack the scalability, flexibility and end-to-end visibility needed to support modern mobility. This places an added burden on the IT departments involved in managing it.
The value of Mist Edge is in its ability to provide comprehensive visibility into all network packets. The Juniper Networks Mist Cloud excels in providing insight into client-side data. Its ability to leverage data science to analyze the vast amounts of rich metadata collected by Juniper's access points reduces O&M costs and provides unprecedented insight into network performance, behavior, traffic patterns and potential points of failure.
This granular visibility not only helps administrators make informed decisions and proactively resolve issues, but also enhances overall network security and compliance.
