The benefits of AP-300 include:
• Dual Radio 802.11ac Access Point with Multi-User MIMO
- Supports up to 1,300 Mbps in the 5GHz band (with 3SS/VHT80 clients) and up to 300 Mbps in the 2.4GHz band (with 2SS/HT40 clients).
• Built-in Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) radio
- Enables location-based services with BLE-enabled mobile devices receiving signals from multiple Aruba Beacons at the same time.
- Enables management of your deployment of battery powered Aruba Beacons.
• Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
- Minimizes interference from 3G/4G cellular networks, distributed antenna systems and commercial small cell/femtocell equipment.
• Quality of service for Unified Communication apps
- Supports priority handling and policy enforcement for unified communication apps, including Microsoft Skype for Business with encrypted videoconferencing, voice, chat and desktop sharing.
• RF Management
- Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology automatically assigns channel and power settings, provides airtime fairness, and ensures that APs stay clear of all sources of RF interference to deliver reliable, high-performance WLANs.
- The Aruba 300 Series APs can be configured to provide part-time or dedicated air monitoring for spectrum analysis and wireless intrusion protection, VPN tunnels to extend remote locations to corporate resources, and wireless mesh connections where Ethernet drops are not available.
• Intelligent app visibility and control
- AppRF technology leverages deep packet inspection to classify and block, prioritize, or limit bandwidth for thousands of applications in a range of categories.
• Security
- Integrated wireless intrusion protection offers threat protection and mitigation, and eliminates the need for separate RF sensors and security appliances.
- IP reputation and security services identify, classify, and block malicious files, URLs and IPs, providing comprehensive protection against advanced online threats.
- Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure storage of credentials and keys.
• Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM):
- Enables the AP to continuously monitor and report its actual power consumption and optionally make autonomous decisions to disable certain capabilities.
- For the 300 Series APs, the IPM power-save feature applies when the unit is powered by an 802.3af PoE source. By default, the USB interface will be the first feature to turn off if AP power consumption exceeds the available power budget. In rare cases it may be necessary to take additional power saving measures, but in most cases, the 300 Series APs will operate in unrestricted mode.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the primary radio capabilities and MIMO configurations of the Aruba AP-305 JX936A? +
The Aruba AP-305 (JX936A) is a dual-radio access point featuring a 2x2:2 MU-MIMO configuration on the 2.4 GHz radio and a 3x3:3 MU-MIMO configuration on the 5 GHz radio. This architecture enhances throughput for high-density environments, allowing for simultaneous data streams to multiple clients, which significantly optimizes overall network efficiency and improves the user experience for bandwidth-intensive applications.
Does the JX936A support 802.11ac Wave 2 standards for enterprise environments? +
Yes, the JX936A is fully compliant with 802.11ac Wave 2 standards. By incorporating Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) technology, this access point can communicate with multiple clients concurrently rather than sequentially. This is a critical upgrade for modern enterprise offices where high device density and sustained high-speed connectivity are required to support diverse mobile and IoT infrastructure.
How is the JX936A powered, and does it support Power over Ethernet (PoE)? +
The Aruba AP-305 JX936A is designed to support 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE). This allows the unit to receive both data and power over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying installation in ceiling or wall-mount locations where dedicated power outlets might not be readily available. It is an ideal solution for streamlined deployment in professional office settings.
Are the antennas on the Aruba AP-305 JX936A integrated or external? +
The JX936A model comes equipped with integrated omnidirectional antennas specifically tuned for internal deployment. This design provides a clean aesthetic and reliable signal propagation across common office layouts without the need for additional external antenna kits. It is optimized for standard indoor mounting, delivering consistent coverage patterns for client devices within its operational range.
Can the Aruba JX936A be managed without a physical hardware controller? +
Aruba access points, including the JX936A, offer flexible management options. They can be deployed in a controller-less environment using Aruba Instant mode, where one AP acts as the virtual controller for the cluster. Alternatively, they can be managed via a centralized Aruba Mobility Controller or cloud-based platforms, depending on your organization’s existing network architecture and management requirements.
What is the intended use case for the Aruba AP-305 series in a business network? +
The AP-305 series is engineered for medium-density indoor enterprise environments. Its combination of Wave 2 performance and MU-MIMO support makes it perfectly suited for general office areas, conference rooms, and classrooms. It provides a robust, cost-effective solution for organizations that require reliable wireless access for a mix of mobile devices and legacy hardware.
How does MU-MIMO improve performance on the JX936A compared to older access points? +
Unlike traditional single-user MIMO systems that serve clients one by one, the MU-MIMO technology in the JX936A allows the radio to transmit data to multiple devices at the same time. This capability drastically reduces the airtime contention that often occurs in busy wireless environments, ensuring that every connected client experiences faster data delivery and reduced latency.
What mounting options are compatible with the Aruba JX936A? +
The Aruba JX936A is designed for versatile indoor mounting, typically utilizing integrated ceiling rail mounting clips which are standard for enterprise APs. It is also compatible with optional mount kits designed for wall surfaces or plenum spaces, allowing IT administrators to achieve optimal signal placement while maintaining compliance with building codes and aesthetic standards.
