OpenWiFi for Flexible, Interoperable Enterprise Networks
Build enterprise networks around open architecture, interoperable hardware, and cloud-based management.
Traditional wireless networks often tie Access Points, controllers, software, and licensing into one proprietary ecosystem.
OpenWiFi changes the architecture. It separates the wireless hardware from the software and management layers, giving organizations more flexibility to choose, deploy, manage, and evolve their Wi-Fi infrastructure.
Indio combines OpenWiFi-compliant Access Points, Indio Cloud, enterprise networking capabilities, and deployment expertise to make open Wi-Fi practical for real-world networks.
The Problem With Closed Wi-Fi
Your Network Shouldn't Be Tied to One Vendor
Traditional enterprise Wi-Fi can create dependencies between hardware, controller software, licensing, and management platforms.
When the network grows, those dependencies can become expensive and difficult to change.
You may end up replacing hardware because the controller changed.
Adding another vendor may mean adding another management platform.
Expanding to new locations may mean adding another license.
And upgrading one part of the network can require changes across the entire stack.
OpenWiFi separates the pieces, so you have more control over the whole.
One Architecture. More Choice.
Separate Hardware From Software
OpenWiFi follows a disaggregated approach to wireless networking.
The Access Point hardware and the software that manages it are not inherently locked into one proprietary stack.
That creates room for:
Multi-vendor hardware
Choose compatible Access Points based on deployment requirements rather than being tied to one hardware family.
Open software
Use an open software foundation that can evolve independently of the hardware.
Cloud-based management
Centralize configuration, monitoring, and operations across distributed networks.
Open APIs
Connect networking infrastructure with other platforms and services.
From One Site to Thousands of Endpoints
Built to Scale With Your Network
OpenWiFi is designed for environments ranging from distributed enterprise locations to large-scale service-provider and managed Wi-Fi deployments.
Indio Cloud adds centralized management, zero-touch provisioning, monitoring, analytics, and multi-site administration to the OpenWiFi architecture. Indio's existing OpenWiFi materials specifically highlight multi-vendor interoperability, centralized cloud management, zero-touch provisioning, analytics, and multi-tenant architectures.
Choose the Hardware That Fits the Deployment
One OpenWiFi Architecture. Tailored Form Factors for Every Space.
Different environments demand different Wi-Fi hardware.
A hotel room needs something different from a lecture hall. A campus needs something different from an outdoor public space. OpenWiFi gives the software and management architecture room to work across compatible hardware platforms.
Wall-Plate Access Points
Compact in-room Wi-Fi designed for hotel rooms, student residences, and multi-dwelling units with integrated pass-through Ethernet ports.
High-Density Indoor APs
High-throughput ceiling access points tailored for lecture halls, auditoriums, and bustling enterprise offices with high concurrent user density.
Rugged Outdoor APs
Weather-hardened IP67 access points built for open campuses, stadium venues, parks, and smart city deployments under extreme conditions.
Unified Architecture Across All Form Factors
Indio's portfolio includes Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 indoor and outdoor Access Points, wall-plate, high-density indoor, and outdoor form factors running standardized OpenWiFi firmware.
OpenWiFi + OpenLAN
Wireless and Wired, Built on the Same Open Philosophy
No Isolation
Wi-Fi doesn't operate in isolation — every client device links back to the wired backbone.
Ethernet Link
Every Access Point connects to Ethernet, transferring critical enterprise client traffic.
PoE & Switching
Every powered AP depends on an intelligent PoE switch for reliable power and backhaul.
OpenLAN Fabric
OpenLAN extends open networking into switching, creating a unified Wi-Fi + LAN architecture.
