The Cisco partner program helps the company maintain performance levels as innovation in the IoT market accelerates.
By joining the Cisco partner ecosystem, partners and clients have further access to expertise to design, architect, deploy, manage, and support IoT solutions.
Cisco has many types of IoT parters that can support a variety of client uses cases.
One of Cisco’s prominent clients is the Swedish mining company Boliden.
Boliden aims to meet regional demand for raw materials while maintaining worker safety. For that, they needed a reliable industrial network architecture that can function over a kilometer underground.
The solution consisted of a collaboration between Sandvik’s OptiMine and AutoMine software and Cisco’s industrial, low-latency IoT switches and access points.
“Autonomous vehicles make it possible for our operators to be in a cleaner and healthier environment. The Cisco network also enables us to automate operational management,” says Jacob Wallen, mine automation engineer at Boliden.
“Using OptiMine, we can track assets in real-time, people, and vehicles.”
Boliden was able to optimize the efficiency of controlling mining machines, automate mining equipment and operations, and drastically improve worker safety.
