HPE Aruba AP-345 Access Point 802.11ac Wave 2 APs with dual-5 GHz and multi-gig Ethernet support

Product Description

The Aruba AP-345 features a unique flexible radio architecture, allowing one of its radios to operate either in the 2.4 GHz band or be converted to a second 5 GHz radio. This dual-5 GHz capability enables greater client capacity, reduced interference, and improved performance for bandwidth-intensive applications such as HD video conferencing, cloud computing, online collaboration, and large file transfers. The access point supports 4×4:4 MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology, allowing simultaneous communication with multiple wireless devices for enhanced efficiency and user experience.

To eliminate network bottlenecks, the AP-345 includes a 2.5 Gigabit Smart Rate Ethernet port, supporting data speeds beyond standard Gigabit Ethernet while using existing network cabling. This multi-gig Ethernet capability ensures maximum wireless throughput and simplifies infrastructure upgrades without requiring expensive cable replacements.

Enterprise-grade security is built into the Aruba AP-345, offering support for WPA2/WPA3 encryption, secure authentication, integrated firewall features, and role-based access control to protect sensitive business data.
