Aruba AP-303 - Description

Access Point, Wi-Fi 5

High-Performance Wi-Fi 5 Access Point for Medium-Density Environments:

Aruba AP-303 is a cost-effective, high-performance access point designed for medium-density enterprise environments such as schools, retail stores, warehouses, hotels, and offices. Supporting Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2) with Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) capabilities, the AP-303 delivers up to 867 Mbps on the 5GHz band and 300 Mbps on the 2.4GHz band for a combined maximum data rate of 1.2 Gbps. Its compact 2x2:2SS design makes it ideal for cost-sensitive deployments requiring reliable wireless coverage and speed.

Flexible Deployment Controller-Based or Instant Mode:

This unified access point offers multiple deployment modes to suit diverse network setups. It can operate in controller-based mode with Aruba Mobility Controllers for centralized management and policy enforcement, or in Instant mode for simpler deployments where the AP cluster handles control functions. It also supports Remote AP (RAP) mode, Air Monitor (AM) mode for wireless security, and mesh networking, ensuring complete adaptability for any enterprise requirement.

Built-In BLE for Location and Asset Services:

With its integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio, the Aruba AP-303 enhances location-based services. It enables functions such as indoor wayfinding, asset tracking, and push notifications by interacting with BLE-enabled devices. Businesses can remotely manage Aruba Beacons and deploy scalable location services to improve operations and user experiences.

Advanced RF and Security Features for Reliable Connectivity:

The AP-303 is equipped with Aruba’s Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) and AirMatch technologies for automatic optimization of channel selection, power levels, and performance. Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC) reduces interference from 3G/4G networks. Secure Core features, including TPM, wireless intrusion protection, and AppRF for deep packet inspection, ensure robust security and intelligent bandwidth control for enterprise apps.

Sleek Design with Optimized Internal Antennas:

Internally housed dual-band omnidirectional antennas deliver peak gains of 3.5 dBi (2.4GHz) and 6.9 dBi (5GHz), optimized for ceiling-mounted deployment. The unit’s discreet 150mm x 150mm x 35mm design weighs only 260g, blending seamlessly into most indoor environments. Mounting options are available for different surfaces, enhancing installation flexibility.
