SPECIFICATION:

UNIQUE ABILITY:

WIFI 6:

As a Wi-Fi 6/802.11ax-based AP, this series supports features like Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) both up and downlink, BSS coloring, Downlink Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO), and cell co-location.

• OFDMA:-

With this capability, APs can handle multiple 802.11ax cap clients on each channel at the same time, regardless of device type or traffic type. By handling each transaction via smaller sub-carriers or resource units (RUs), clients can share a channel and not compete for airtime or bandwidth.

• Bi-directional Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) 

These Series access points provide simultaneous access to clients using downlink MU-MIMO and now uplink spatial streams, similar to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2). This optimizes client-to-AP spatial stream diversity by multiplying the number of clients that can send traffic.

WI-FI OPTIMIZATION 

Client optimization 

       Using patented AI-powered ClientMatch technology, clients can be guided to an AP that receives the best radio signal. Additionally, ClientMatch dynamically steers traffic to load balance APs in order to improve user experience.

Automated Wi-Fi radio frequency management 

• Aruba AirMatch automates network optimization using machine learning to improve the user experience and provide greater stability. 
• Dynamic bandwidth adjustments and real-time channel assignment are used to mitigate co-channel interference through an even distribution of Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) to radios through AirMatch.

Application assurance 

        Air Slice provides application assurance to its users that goes beyond the traditional capabilities of airtime fairness. As new users connect and application sessions begin or end, Air Slice automatically adjusts radio resources based on the SLAs configured.

 Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM)

• Energy consumption and temperature are continuously monitored and reported by Aruba 580 Series APs.
• PoE power can be used to enable and disable capabilities of APs - ideal when wired switches have exhaustion of their power budgets. Furthermore, IPM prevents overheating by disabling features when APs approach the maximum temperature limit.

Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC) 

          This technology features built-in filtering to minimize the effect of interference from cellular networks, DASs, and commercial small cells or femtocells.

IOT CAPABILITIES 

Bluetooth and Zigbee 

 

Bluetooth and 802.15.4/Zigbee radios ensure maximum range and performance for IoT applications. A built-in Bluetooth and Zigbee capability simplifies deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors. IT resources and overlay infrastructure are not required. 

Advanced IoT coexistence (AIC) 

Filters keep Wi-Fi and Bluetooth/Zigbee radios working at full capacity without interference.

Target Wake Time (TWT)

• With Wi-Fi 6, IoT devices can use the 802.11ax protocol, which is ideal for IoT solutions that communicate infrequently. 
• Allows IoT devices to sleep for extended periods and wake briefly to communicate before returning to sleep with TWT.
• Substantially extends the battery life of Wi-Fi 6 sensors powered by batteries.

SECURITY: 

Helps to protect user authentication and wireless traffic with its SASE and zero-trust security approach.

▶ WPA3 and Enhanced Open

• With WPA3 and Enhanced Open, Wi-Fi 6-certified clients will never send unencrypted traffic. Enhanced Open provides strong encryption over the air even with open authentication network. 

• Encryption for every Wi-Fi 6 user session changes from session to session if the user disconnects and reconnects.

 

▶ WPA2-MPSK 

Simplifies WPA2 passkey management - if the Wi-Fi password changes on one device, other devices do not need to change as well. When ClearPass Policy Manager is deployed, this feature is enabled.
