Product R3V46A provides these features:

Incredible Efficiency with Wi-Fi 6

The Aruba 500H Series Hospitality Access Points support the Wi-Fi 6 standard, including features such as orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA), bi-directional Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO), and Target Wait Time (TWT).

Patented RF optimization technologies like ClientMatch have also been enhanced with Wi-Fi 6 awareness to group Wi-Fi 6-capable client devices together for optimized network utilization.

The Aruba 500H Series also supports Air Slice, a unique capability that enhances OFDMA with SLA-grade application assurance from the access point to the client device.

Infrastructure Designed with Flexibility in Mind

The Aruba 500H Series Hospitality Access Points are purpose-built to deliver unified wired and wireless connectivity for the Aruba Edge Services Platform (Aruba ESP) and support flexible deployment options.

The 500H Series can be installed on a wall for hotel or residence hall environments, or installed with a desk stand for remote connectivity. Up to 4 Ethernet ports provide local wired access.

This product can be managed by Aruba Central, as well as with existing on-premises and local management options.

IoT Platform Capabilities

The Aruba 500H Series Hospitality Access Points have the ability to support up to 256 associated clients per Wi-Fi radio – ideal for organizations deploying Wi-Fi connected IoT devices.

Supports Bluetooth 5 and Zigbee wireless protocols through an integrated IoT radio, and third-party expansion with an integrated USB port.

Features improved client visibility with integrated device profiling, and the option for advanced insights when integrated with ClearPass Policy Manager or ClearPass Device Insight.
