SAN JOSE, CA,June 27, 2012 - Cisco today announced the
availability of Cisco Connect™ Cloud, a software platform
for Linksys® Smart Wi-Fi Routers that redefines and
dramatically simplifies how consumers connect, control
and interact with their connected devices, including
personal entertainment and home appliances. Cisco Connect
Cloud is designed to handle all the tiresome and
complicated technical aspects of home network set-up and
connecting devices to the network. This enables the
average person to get on with using and enjoying their
Internet service, as well as a wide range of new uses
enabled by the home network.
Cisco also announced the availability of its Cisco
Connect Cloud mobile app which provides easy access to
Cisco Connect Cloud on a smartphone or tablet, while at
home or on the go. One breakthrough feature with Cisco
Connect Cloud is SimpleTapä. SimpleTap lets consumers
connect devices to their Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Router with
as little as one tap of a button or with a quick swipe or
scan of a device or tag, making it easier than ever to
add devices to the network.
Additionally, Cisco unveiled the first set of mobile apps
from third party developers that provide extended
experiences to Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Routers. There are six
new developer apps including an app that lets people
search and "beam" online videos to a Smart TV
or AirPlay® compatible device; an app that helps install
home monitoring cameras and enables monitoring at home
and on the go; and apps that give parents easy ways to
keep their children safe online, even when mom and dad
are not at home.
"We are changing the game when it comes to the
connected home by ushering in a whole new level of
experiences, simplicity and convenience," said Brett
Wingo, vice president and general manager, Cisco Home
Networking. "The next-generation connected home is
being brought to life for our customers with Linksys
Smart Wi-Fi Routers, Cisco Connect Cloud, apps and our
partnerships across the industry."
