High performance, cost-effective Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) APs for hospitality, branch offices, and teleworker deployments.
High-performance, wired and wireless connectivity for any organization experiencing growing mobile, cloud, and IoT requirements in medium-density environments.
Built on Wi-Fi 6 standards, 500H Series APs include features such as OFDMA, MU-MIMO, and Target Wake Time for better multi-user performance and improved efficiency.
Product features support wired and wireless connectivity (in a single device) from hotels, branch offices, or teleworker initiatives for up to 1.5 Gbps of maximum wireless throughput and 256 associated clients per Wi-Fi radio. USB port for cellular backhaul or IoT expansion (505H).
Up to four ports for local wired connectivity, PoE out support on up to two ports (505H), and crypto performance of up to 500 Mbps.
Increases enterprise-level security without increasing complexity, and ensures stronger guest access protections.
The 500H Series APs are designed to optimize user experience by maximizing Wi-Fi efficiency and dramatically reducing airtime contention between clients.
Features include Orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA), and cellular optimization. With up to 2 spatial streams (2SS) and 80MHz channel bandwidth, the 500H Series provides groundbreaking wireless capabilities for budget-conscious deployments.
This capability allows Aruba’s APs to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6 capable clients on each channel simultaneously, regardless of device or traffic type. Channel utilization is optimized
by handling each transaction via smaller sub-carriers or resource units (RUs), which means that clients are sharing a channel and not competing for airtime and bandwidth.
This feature uses built-in filtering to automatically minimize the impact of interference from cellular networks, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and commercial small cell or femtocell equipment.
Aruba APs continuously monitor and report hardware energy consumption. They can also be configured to enable or disable capabilities based on available PoE power – ideal when wired switches have exhausted their power budget (AP-505H).
