Kontakt.io's Kio Cloud platform and Internet of Things (IoT) devices are 100% compatible with Cisco Catalyst Access Points.
In environments where Cisco Access Points are deployed for WiFi connectivity and coverage, Kontakt.io IoT devices do not require any additional Portal Lights. Our platform and devices communicate bilaterally with and through the Access Points already in place. There are no additional required overlay network devices that results in cost savings, less maintenance, and a simple and scalable architecture.
