HPE JW182A - Aruba AP-228 802.11n/ac Dual 3x3:3 Radio 6xRPSMA Connectors Indoor Hardened AP

Rugged Aruba 228 wireless APs deliver gigabit Wi-Fi performance to 802.11ac mobile devices in harsh weather-protected environments such as warehouses industrial freezers or enclosures in extreme environments such as stadiums.

With a maximum data rate of 1.3 Gbps in the 5-GHz band and 600 Mbps in the 2.4-GHz band Aruba 228 APs are three-times faster than 802.11n APs and provide performance similar to a wired connection.

The 228 APs include ClientMatch™ technology which eliminates sticky clients by continuously gathering session performance metrics from mobile devices. This information is then used to steer each mobile device to the best AP and radio on the WLAN.

Proactive and deterministic ClientMatch dynamically optimizes Wi-Fi client performance as users roam and RF conditions change. If a mobile device moves out of range of an AP or RF interference impedes performance ClientMatch automatically steers it to a better AP.

With ClientMatch 228 APs load web pages faster deliver video streams with improved quality and support high densities of mobile devices. An 802.11ac network without ClientMatch performs no different than an 802.11n WLAN.

The rugged 228 APs additionally support priority handling and policy enforcement for individual Microsoft Lync media on the same device including encrypted videoconferencing voice chat and desktop sharing.
