Aruba 204 Wireless Access Point

Product Description

200 SERIES SPECIFICATIONS 2.4-GHz (300 Mbps max rate) & 5-GHz (867 Mbps max rate) radios, each with 2x 2 MIMO & two combined, diplexed external RP-SMA antenna connectors. ADVANCED FEATURES RF management Adaptive Radio Management™ (ARM) technology automatically assigns channel & power settings, provides airtime fairness & ensures that APs stay clear of all sources of RF interference to deliver reliable, high-performance WLANs. The 200 Series APs can be configured to provide part-time or dedicated air monitoring for spectrum analysis & wireless intrusion protection, VPN tunnels to extend remote locations to corporate resources, & 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 2.4-GHz & 5-GHz radio bands to identify sources of RF interference. Security With an Open DNS service subscription, Aruba Instant APs deliver integrated web filtering, malware & botnet protection to every device connected to the WLAN. Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure storage of credentials & keys Secure Jack-capable for secure tunneling of wired Ethernet traffic.
