Keeping your network in shape shouldn’t feel like a struggle, but it often does while managing Wi-Fi access points, switches and NAS devices. Multiple tools, separate interfaces, too many things to track. What if there were a simpler way?
That’s where cloud controllers make network management easier by putting everything in one place. With Quantum Networks, businesses get an intuitive, reliable and secure way to manage their networks with ease, whether it’s a single office or multiple locations.
The Power of Cloud-Managed Networking
Gone are the days of logging into each device separately or requiring to be on-site for every change. Cloud-managed networking makes everything easy by offering you one dashboard to manage your entire setup, Wi-Fi, switches and more.
Here’s what that means in practice:
- Centralized Management: View and manage all your devices. No more switching between tabs or tools. Just one clean interface for your whole network.
- Enhanced Scalability: Adding new sites or expanding your team is easy. Cloud controllers scale up effortlessly, without any struggle.
- Reduced Operational Costs: With fewer manual tasks and less need for on-site IT visits, you reduce costs while improving efficiency.
- Improved Security: With centralized security policies, role-based access and real-time monitoring, your network stays protected all the time.
- Anywhere, Anytime Access: Whether you’re in the office, on the road or working remotely, your network is just a click away.
How Quantum Networks Makes It Even Better
Quantum Networks delivers a complete cloud-managed ecosystem built for speed, simplicity and scale. Let’s break it down by component:
Optimizing Wi-Fi with Quantum Networks
Quantum Networks offers a full lineup of access points such as Wi-Fi 7, Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 5, designed for all environments: indoor, outdoor or in-room. These APs deliver fast, reliable and secure wireless performance.
All of them are managed through Quantum Rudder (our cloud controller) or the Quantum ACE mobile app. These platforms allow admins to configure, monitor and secure wireless networks easily, whether it’s a small office or a large campus.
Easy Switch Control
Switches are at the core of your wired network. Quantum Networks provides options for core, enterprise, data centre and industrial needs, including PoE, full PoE, non-PoE, RPS and 100G uplinks.
From 4-port compact switches to high-performance 48-port models, everything is managed through the same cloud platform. You can configure VLANs, apply QoS and monitor port-level activity, all in real-time and from a single interface.
Empowering NAS and Network Services
Even though Quantum’s cloud controllers don’t manage NAS hardware directly, the supporting infrastructure ensures your NAS works smoothly and securely.
Here’s how:
- QSMP (Quantum Wi-Fi Service Management Platform): Manages large-scale Wi-Fi deployments and hotspots with scalability in mind.
- QPASS (Quantum Zero Trust Network Access): Offers secure, zero-trust access control for enterprise networks.
- QIM (Quantum Identity Management): Handles user and device identity management, key for secure NAS access.
- QNMS (Network Monitoring System): Gives you proactive network health monitoring, so NAS connectivity issues get flagged early.
- Q-LOG (Log Management Service): Centralizes log collection for auditing and troubleshooting network events, including NAS activity.
Together, these services help to create a stable and secure environment for NAS and other critical services.
