Wi-Fi remains a critically important technology with exciting innovation: Wi-Fi 6E access points - which support Wi-Fi in the 6 GHz band - grew to make up just under a quarter (23%) of enterprise dependent AP sales in 4Q23 indicating the continued rapid adoption of Wi-Fi 6E.

With product overlap across key aspects (e.g., wireless local area networking, Ethernet switching, and SD-WAN), mapping out a combined strategy for HPE Aruba Networking and Juniper's AI-Driven Enterprise Mist platforms will be key to this acquisition being successful

ZScaler has long been one of the premier cloud-enforced security (SSE/NeSaaS) vendors that SD-WAN vendors partner with; with ZScaler more formally enabling SD-WAN capabilities, it will only increase the co-opetition dynamics within the market among vendors.

Big potential news in HPE's rumored acquisition of Juniper. Within campus & branch networking there would be significant portfolio overlap between Aruba & Mist to reconcile, but HPE sees broader opportunities in Juniper's DC and SP networking businesses, plus a big AI push
