Aquarius has received two patents for developments in the field of telecommunications equipment. The Federal Service for Intellectual Property (FIPS) has confirmed the novelty and exclusive rights of the company to the hardware platform for Wi-Fi access points, providing high reliability and fault tolerance through power redundancy and antenna management.

The first invention is a system board for a wireless Wi-Fi access point with power redundancy (patent No. 2851814). It solves the problem of failures associated with the power source. Unlike standard solutions, the board supports simultaneous power from two independent PoE sources through different network ports. In the event of a failure of one source, the device automatically switches to the second, which eliminates downtime due to power supply failures. This ensures continuous operation of high-performance devices supporting all frequency bands (2.4, 5, and 6 GHz).

The second invention is a device for switching antennas for wireless Wi-Fi access points (patent No. 2853782). It allows you to quickly switch between the standard built-in antenna and the connector for connecting an external specialized antenna through the GPIO port of the SoC system processor (IPQ8072A). This solution provides deployment flexibility and expands the scope of the base board, allowing you to adapt the access point for specialized tasks without replacing the entire device.

Why even a PC case should be branded

In Russian conditions, the popularity of PCs assembled by small local companies or in-house corporate IT departments continues to grow rapidly. Such solutions have historically been more popular in Russia than in other developed markets, but today new nuances have emerged in the segment's evolution, which we discussed with Karim LASKRI, Business Director of FSP Group in the CIS region.

Storage you can trust in the background: Basis SDS 2.3 released with scheduled diagnostics and an observer role

A storage system is the only infrastructure layer where an error cannot be “rolled back”: neither a reboot nor a configuration rollback will restore lost data. That is why users expect predictability from software-defined storage rather than just new features—ensuring background processes finish what they started, and administrators can see the cluster status not only “right now,” but also over time.
