Wi-Fi 6 Performance for Hotels, Dorms, and Remote Offices

  • HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points deliver a maximum combined data rate of 1.5 Gbps with 2 spatial streams to meet the needs of low and medium density environments.
  • The AP provides Wi-Fi CERTIFIED with support for Wi-Fi 6 features such as OFDMA, bidirectional MU-MIMO, and target wait time (TWT) to drive improved efficiency. It handles multiple Wi-Fi 6 capable clients on each channel simultaneously, regardless of device or traffic type.
  • Enhanced wireless experience with HPE Aruba Networking ClientMatch technology removes sticky client issues by steering a client to the AP where it receives the best radio signal.

Flexible Deployment and Unified Management

  • The HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points can be installed on a wall for hotel or residence hall environments or installed with optional desktop stand for tabletop deployment.
  • The AP manages with HPE Aruba Networking Central, an AI-powered solution that simplifies IT operations, improves agility, and reduces costs by unifying management of campus, branch, remote, data center, and IoT networks from one dashboard.
  • The HPE AP-503H model has three 1 Gbps Ethernet ports (1 x 1 Gbps uplink, 2 x 1 Gbps downlink). The HPE AP-505H model has five Ethernet ports (1 x 2.5 Gbps uplink, 4 x 1 Gbps downlink), supports PoE out on two ports, and includes a USB port.
  • Product bundles for remote desktop use include access point, desk mount, power adapter, and power cord (US and EU only).
  • Zero Touch Provisioning provides ease of implementation in branch offices and remote sites, without on-site technical expertise.

Ready for IoT

  • The HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points support1 Bluetooth 5 and Zigbee® wireless protocols through an integrated IoT radio. The HPE AP-505H model also has an integrated USB port to support a range of IoT devices.
  • The AP simplifies deploying and managing IoT location services, asset-tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors.
  • HPE Aruba Networking Central client insights uses deep packet inspection to provide additional context and behavioral information that help verify devices are receiving proper policy enforcement and continuously monitor for rogue devices.

Simple and Secure Access

  • The HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points offer enhanced security with Dynamic Segmentation to remove time-consuming and error-prone task of managing complex and static VLANs, ACLs and subnets by dynamically assigning policies and keeping traffic protected and separated.
  • It offers stronger encryption and authentication with WPA3, protected credentials/keys storage for guest access with Enhanced Open, and user and IoT access policy enforcement firewalls (PEF).
  • WPA3 and Enhanced Open security increases enterprise-level security by providing stronger guest access protections without increasing complexity.
  • Trusted Platform Module (TPM) secures credentials, keys, and boot code.

  • Advantages of OFDMA
    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.
  • Aruba Air Slice for Extended OFDMA Assurance
    APs in controller-less mode (Instant) can provide SLA-grade performance by allocating RUs to specific traffic types. By combining Aruba's Policy Enforcement Firewall (PEF) and Layer 7 deep packet inspection (DPI) to identify user roles and applications, the APs will dynamically allocate the bandwidth needed. Non-Wi-Fi 6 clients can also benefit. Air Slice for APs in controller mode will be supported in a future software release. Learn more in the technical brief.
  • Multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO)
    Similar to downlink MU-MIMO in Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2), the 500H Series can simultaneously connect clients using downlink - and now - uplink spatial streams. The added benefit is the ability to multiply the number of clients that can now send traffic, thus optimizing client-to-AP spatial stream diversity.
  • Wi-Fi 6 and MU-MIMO aware client optimization
    Aruba's patented AI-powered ClientMatch technology eliminates sticky client issues by placing Wi-Fi 6 capable devices on the best available AP. Session metrics are used to steer mobile devices to the best AP based on available bandwidth, types of applications being used and traffic type - even as users roam.
  • Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
    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.
  • Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM)
    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.
  • Green AP energy efficiency
    Aruba Wi-Fi 6 APs can use analytics from Aruba Central to automatically transition in and out of a sleep mode based on client density.
  • IoT Platform Capabilities
    Like all Aruba Wi-Fi 6 APs, the 500H Series includes an integrated Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 radio (for Zigbee support) to simplify deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions and IoT sensors. This allows organizations to leverage the 500H Series as an IoT platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources.
  • Target Wake Time (TWT)
    Ideal for IoTs that communicate infrequently, TWT establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an AP. This helps improve client power savings and reduces airtime contention with other clients.
  • Advanced IoT Coexistence (AIC)
    This features uses built-in filtering to automatically minimize the impact of interference from IoT wireless radios like Bluetooth and Zigbee.
  • Aruba Secure Infrastructure
    The Aruba 500H Series includes components of Aruba's 360 Secure Fabric to help protect user authentication and wireless traffic.
  • WPA3 and Enhanced Open
    Support for stronger encryption and authentication is provided via the latest version of WPA for enterprise protected networks. Enhanced Open offers seamless new protection for users connecting to open networks where each session is automatically encrypted to protect user passwords and data on guest networks.
  • WPA2-MPSK
    MPSK enables simpler passkey management for WPA2 devices - should the Wi-Fi password on one device or device type change, no additional changes are needed for other devices. This requires ClearPass Policy Manager.
  • VPN Tunnels
    In Remote AP (RAP) and IAP-VPN deployments, the Aruba 500H Series can be used to establish a secure SSL/IPSec VPN tunnel to a Mobility Controller that is acting as a VPN concentrator.
  • Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
    For enhanced device assurance, all Aruba APs have an installed TPM for secure storage of credentials, keys, and boot code.
  • Simple and Secure Access
    To simplify policy enforcement, the Aruba 500H Series uses Aruba's Policy Enforcement Rirewall (PEF) to encapsulate all traffic from the AP to the mobility controller (or gateway) for end-to-end encryption and inspection. Policies are applied based on user role, device type, applications, and location. This reduces the manual configuration of SSIDs, VLANs and ACLs. PEF also serves as the underlying technology for Aruba Dynamic Segmentation.
  • High-Density Connectivity
    Each 500H Series AP provides connectivity for a maximum of 256 associated clients per radio (512 in total). In real-world scenarios, the maximum recommended client density is dependent on environmental conditions.
  • Versatile Installation Options
    The APs can be deployed as a wall-mount or, for remote teleworker environments, they can be converted to a desk-mount by using an optional accessory stand.
  • Flexible Operation and Management
    A unique feature of Aruba APs is the ability to operate in either controller-less (Instant) or controller-based mode.

These economical Wi-Fi 6 access points provide high-performance connectivity for any organization experiencing growing mobile, cloud and IoT requirements. With a wireless aggregate data rate of up 1.5 Gbps and gigabit local wired ports, they deliver the range of connectivity options needed for venues such as hotels, residence halls, and remote offices alike.
