Apple and Cisco are working together to help make the most effective use of WiFi networks and prioritising business applications, using Cisco's network on Apple's mobile devices.
Much of the work centres on in tegrating Cisco Spark, the company's collaboration service with Apple's devices and software. The features, which are currently in the beta or testing stage, will be launched with Apple's next software upgrade, iOS10, expected to be released in the fall of this year.
The work around optimising WiFi connectivity involves making sure that the user connects to the best network while on the move.For example, in a large area with more than one WiFi networks, a mobile device usually connects to the network with the strongest signal even if there are a thousand people accessing the same network.
Higher load affects the quality of the network, and it may be possible that a relatively weaker signal with less number of people using it will have better performance in the same area.
