Product Details

The benefits of AP-303 include:

• Unified AP

– deploy with or without controller

- The 303 Series access points can be deployed in either controller-based (ArubaOS) or controller-less (InstantOS) deployment mode

• Dual Radio 2x2 802.11ac access point with Multi-User MIMO (wave 2)

- Supports up to 867Mbps in the 5GHz band (with 2SS/ VHT80 client devices) and up to 300Mbps 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 asset tracking when used with Aruba Asset Tags

• 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 communications applications

- Supports priority handling and policy enforcement for unified communication apps, including Skype for Business with encrypted videoconferencing, voice, chat and desktop sharing

• Aruba AppRF technology leverages deep packet inspection to classify and block, prioritize or limit bandwidth for over 2,500 enterprise apps or groups of apps

• RF Management - Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology with AirMatch automatically assigns channel, width and power settings based on environment and client density. It also provides airtime fairness and ensures that APs stay clear of all sources of RF interference to deliver reliable, highperformance WLANs - The Aruba 303 Series Access Points 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

• Spectrum analysis

- Capable of part-time or dedicated air monitoring, the spectrum analyzer remotely scans the 2.4GHz and 5GHz radio bands to identify sources of RF interference from HT20 through VHT80 operation

• Aruba Secure Core

- Device assurance: Use of Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure storage of credentials and keys as well as secure boot - 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 les, URLs and IPs, providing comprehensive protection against advanced online threats

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary performance capabilities of the Aruba JZ321A AP-303? +
The Aruba JZ321A AP-303 is a high-performance 802.11ac Wave 2 access point featuring dual 2x2:2 MU-MIMO radios. It is designed to deliver reliable wireless connectivity in medium-density environments, offering efficient multi-user throughput and improved airtime fairness to ensure consistent performance across all connected client devices.
Does the Aruba JZ321A require a separate controller for deployment? +
This unit is a Unified Campus AP, meaning it supports both controller-managed and controllerless deployments. You can deploy it in Aruba Instant mode for a cluster-based approach, or manage it via a centralized Aruba Mobility Controller, providing flexibility for evolving network architectures as your organization grows.
Can I mount the Aruba JZ321A directly to a wall or ceiling? +
Yes, the Aruba JZ321A features an unobtrusive, low-profile design well-suited for both wall and ceiling installations. Its integrated internal antennas maintain a sleek aesthetic while providing optimal coverage patterns, making it ideal for professional office environments, classrooms, or retail spaces where aesthetics and performance must coexist.
What is the benefit of the MU-MIMO technology found in the JZ321A? +
Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) allows the AP-303 to communicate with multiple clients simultaneously rather than sequentially.
