Boost network efficiency

ClientMatch unleashes MU-MIMO

Integrated Bluetooth Beacon

With multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), you can transmit to multiple Wave 2 clients from an AP, at the same time.

Aruba ClientMatch software groups Wave 2 clients together, enabling MU-MIMO. That means a faster, more efficient network.

UNIQUE BENEFITS
Dual Radio 802.11ac access point with Multi-User MIMO Supports up to 1,733Mbps in the 5GHz band (with 4SS/VHT80 or 2SS/VHT160 clients) and up to 300Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band (with 2SS/HT40 clients). Built-in Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) radio Enables location based services with BLE-enabled mobile devices receiving signals from multiple Aruba Beacons at the same time. Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC) Minimizes interference from 3G/4G cellular networks, distributed antenna systems and commercial small cell/femtocell equipment. Quality of service for Unified Communication apps Supports priority handling and policy enforcement for unified communication apps, including Microsoft Skype for Business with encrypted videoconferencing, voice, chat and desktop sharing. RF Management Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology automatically assigns channel and power settings, provides airtime fairness and ensures that APs stay clear of all sources of RF interference to deliver reliable, high-performance WLANs. The Aruba 310 Series APs can be configured to provide part-time or dedicated air monitoring for spectrum analysis and wireless intrusion protection, VPN tunnels to extend remote locations to corporate resources, and wireless mesh connections where Ethernet drops are not available. Support for additional 5GHz bands Supports software upgrade to enable additional 5GHz spectrum when governments expand available frequencies. Intelligent app visibility and control AppRF technology leverages deep packet inspection to classify and block, prioritize or limit bandwidth for over 1,500 enterprise apps or groups of apps. Security Integrated wireless intrusion protection offers threat protection and mitigation, and eliminates the need for separate RF sensors and security appliances. IP reputation and security services identify, classify, and block malicious files, URLs and IPs, providing comprehensive protection against advanced online threats. Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure storage of credentials and keys. Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM): Enables the AP to continuously monitor and report its actual power consumption and optionally make autonomous decisions to disable certain capabilities For the 310 Series access points, the IPM power-save feature applies when the unit is powered by an 802.3af PoE source. By default, the USB interface will be the first feature to turn off if AP power consumption will exceed the available power budget. In rare cases, it may be necessary to take additional power saving measures, but in most cases, the 310 Series APs will operate in unrestricted mode.

CHOOSE YOUR OPERATING MODE
Aruba 310 Series APs offer a choice of operating modes to meet your unique management and deployment requirements. Controller-managed mode – When managed by Aruba Mobility Controllers, Aruba 310 Series APs offer centralized configuration, data encryption, policy enforcement and network services, as well as distributed and centralized traffic forwarding. Aruba Instant mode – In Aruba Instant mode, a single AP automatically distributes the network configuration to other Instant APs in the WLAN. Simply power-up one Instant AP, configure it over the air, and plug in the other APs – the entire process takes about five minutes. If WLAN requirements change, a built-in migration path allows 310 Series instant APs to become part of a WLAN that is managed by a Mobility Controller. Remote AP (RAP) for branch deployments Air monitor (AM) for wireless IDS, rogue detection and containment Spectrum analyzer, dedicated or hybrid, for identifying sources of RF interference Secure enterprise mesh For large installations across multiple sites, the Aruba Activate service significantly reduces deployment time by automating device provisioning, firmware upgrades, and inventory management. With Aruba Activate, Instant APs are factory-shipped to any site and configure themselves when powered up.
