Aruba Indoor Access Point JZ021A

Very high performance 802.11ac Wave 2 (WiFi 5) APs with dual-5 GHz and multi-gig Ethernet support

The Aruba AP-344 access point provides the fastest 802.11ac gigabit data speeds and superb user experience for mobile devices and applications in a digital workplace. Designed with an integrated, 802.3bz Compliant, HPE SmartRate multi-gig Ethernet port to eliminate wired bottlenecks, these APs offer unmatched wireless performance and capacity. The unique and flexible dual-5 GHz architecture of the AP344 offers a way to double 5 GHz capacity where needed, without compromise or restrictions.

Thanks to Aruba’s advanced ClientMatch technology, the AP-344 can automatically detect and classify 802.11ac Wave 2 capable mobile devices. This allows ClientMatch to automatically group Wave 2 capable devices onto a single Wave 2 radio so that performance benefits of multi-user MIMO can be realized — without the adverse effects of slower 802.11ac and traditional 802.11n capable mobile devices. This means increased network capacity and a boost in network efficiency.

With maximum data rates of 2,166 Mbps in the 5 GHz band1 and 800 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band (for an aggregate peak data rate of 3.0 Gbps in dual-band mode and 4.3 Gbps in dual-5 GHz mode), the 340 series APs deliver a best-in-class, next-generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi infrastructure that is ideal for lecture halls, auditoriums, public venues, and high-density office environments.

These high performance and high density 340 Series 802.11ac access points support up to 160 MHz channel bandwidth (VHT160), and 4 spatial streams (4SS) for both SU- and MU-MIMO communications.
