OpenLAN for Scalable and Vendor-Neutral Switching
OpenLAN brings interoperability, flexibility, and cloud-managed switching to the enterprise LAN.
The enterprise LAN has remained one of the most tightly controlled parts of the network.
Switch hardware, operating systems, management platforms, and licensing often come as one closed stack.
OpenLAN takes a different approach. It extends open networking principles into Ethernet switching, creating a more flexible foundation for enterprise, campus, hospitality, retail, and distributed networks.
Indio brings OpenLAN-certified managed Ethernet switches together with OpenWiFi and Indio Cloud to create an open, end-to-end networking architecture.
The LAN Has Been Locked In for Too Long
Your Switch Shouldn't Dictate Your Network Architecture
For years, enterprise switching has followed a familiar model:
That model can work, but it can also limit choice as networks grow.
Buy the hardware.
Adopt the vendor's operating system.
Use the vendor's management platform.
Accept the licensing model.
Repeat it across every location.
OpenLAN introduces another option.
OpenLAN Switching
The Wired Foundation for an Open Network
OpenLAN Switching extends the OpenWiFi philosophy into Ethernet.
Instead of treating the switch, software, and cloud management platform as one inseparable product, the architecture moves toward greater separation and interoperability.
That opens possibilities for:
Multi-vendor hardware
Open network operating systems
Standardized management interfaces
Cloud-based provisioning
Centralized monitoring
Network automation
Greater hardware and software choice
OpenLAN + OpenWiFi
One Architecture From Wireless to Wired
Your Wi-Fi and Ethernet infrastructure should work together.
OpenWiFi provides an open approach to the wireless layer.
OpenLAN Switching extends that approach to the wired LAN.
Indio brings the two together through its OpenWiFi Access Points, OpenLAN-certified Ethernet switches, and Indio Cloud management platform.
