Critical vulnerability in Cisco industrial wireless access points fixed (CVE-2024-20418)

Mobility Field Day 12 Announcement

WiFi and CURWB simultaneously

  • Remove need for parallel infrastructure
  • Is this a headache? (Yes)
  • Implications
  • Local and FlexConnect support

    • Drones in manufacturing

    • site surveys
    • But what else?
    • RFID inventory like at BMW
    • LiDar mapping?

      • Siemens

      • LTE backwards compatible
      • CBRS
      • Private 5G
      • Public carriers (it depends) certifications in process for some.
      • WiFi 7 rumblings, I hear it is on the roadmap

        • Phoenix Contact

        • 2 current Wi-Fi 6 industrial wireless access point models
        • 6e models in the works

          • Waveriders Collective

          • ad hoc 5G deployments
          • will these be usable for bringing plants back online/bridging a permanent infrastructure
          • POCs

            • R3

            • Edge X is 802.11 but has m2 slot and is looking to support echo ring at some point.
            • soft PLC on board
            • Edge X is the platform as well.

              • Products coming out next year will include a host of industrial geared hardware.
              • WiFi 7 and 5G capabilities. 
              • Leaning on track record and security focus.

                • Aunex

                • axe client (data sheet)
                • Data Eagle (Scott will like this) 2.4/BT/900 MHz time sensitive protocol focus
                • CIP etc

                    • Wi-Fi 7 possibilities in Industry, manufacturing and safety

                    • Are massive gains in throughput a selling point for manufacturing
                      • 4096 QAM
                      • Massive channel widths (320 plus non-contiguous)
                      • What about Multi-Link Operation (MLO), a feature that increases capacity by simultaneously sending and receiving data across different frequency bands and channels. (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz)
                      • Wi-Fi 7 claims dramatically lower overall latency
                      • Probably going to be great for camera systems.
