BT11 Access Point
The Juniper BT11 is an enterprise-grade access point exclusively for Bluetooth® Low Energy. It leverages Juniper’s patented virtual BLE (vBLE) antenna array, Juniper Mist cloud subscription services, and the Mist AI engine to enable high value location-based services such as user engagement, asset location, analytics, and various contact tracing/social distancing use cases. By eliminating the need for battery-powered BLE beacons and manual calibration, the Juniper solution makes indoor location services cost effective to deploy and scale.

Features + Benefits
Virtual Beacons
Patented virtual Bluetooth® LE (vBLE) technology lets you deploy and move virtual beacons with the simple click of a mouse (or via APIs), eliminating the need for physical beacons.
The BT11 works with the Juniper Mist Cloud to provide high-accuracy, enterprise-grade Bluetooth® LE location services using virtual beacons.
No Manual Calibration
Using machine learning, Juniper Mist continuously collects data in real time from all mobile devices to ensure accurate location estimates without the need for Bluetooth® LE site surveys.
Location Accuracy and Performance
The dynamic 16-element Virtual Bluetooth® LE (vBLE) antenna array in Juniper APs, combined with machine learning in the Juniper Mist Cloud, ensures location accuracy of 1–3 meters for mobile devices, and Bluetooth® LE assets.
Premium Analytics
Juniper Mist Wi-Fi Assurance, User Engagement and Asset Visibility services include a base analytics capability for analyzing up to 30 days of data, simplifying the process of extracting network insights from data and analytics across your enterprise to properly align your support resources or introduce enhanced premium services.
You can also subscribe to our Premium Analytics service to enable these advanced capabilities: further extend network insights and perform analytics for up to a one-year data set; enable custom reporting; and infuse telemetry from third-party data elements.
Real-Time Visibility
Juniper gives you a real-time view of the RF environment from the mobile user’s perspective.
This visibility lets you detect coverage holes and other issues, even as users move around and their RF coverage patterns change.
Open APIs for Easy Integration
Juniper offers a mobile SDK for iOS and Android, with three types of APIs (including vBLE beacon, indoor location, and zone analytics) for seamless integration with complementary products.
