ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY-DIVISION MULTIPLE ACCESS (OFDMA)

Allows access points (APs) to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6-capable clients on each channel simultaneously- regardless of device or traffic type. This improves efficiency by boosting overall capacity, while reducing latency.

TARGET WAKE TIME (TWT)

Ideal for IoTs that communicate infrequently, TWT establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an AP. This helps reduce power consumption, extending the battery life of clients.

MULTIUSER, MULTIPLE INPUT, MULTIPLE OUTPUT (MU-MIMO)

Allows you to serve multiple clients (Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6) at the same time.

1024-QUADRATURE AMPLITUDE MODULATION (1024-QAM)

Enables a 25% data increase over 256 QAM, improving throughput in your access points and devices.

TRUSTED PLATFORM MODULE (TPM)

All Aruba Instant On access points have an installed TPM for secure storage of credentials, keys, and boot codes.

BASIC SERVICE SET COLORING (BSS COLORING)

Allows the network to assign a "color" tag to a channel and reduce the threshold for interference. Network performance is improved because APs on the same channel can be closer together and still transmit at the same time-as long as they are different colors.

ARUBA ADVANCED CELLULAR COEXISTENCE (ACC)

Uses built-in filtering to automatically minimize the impact of interference from cellular networks, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and commercial small-cell or femtocell equipment.

LOW DENSITY PARITY CHECK (LDPC)

Delivers high-efficiency error correction for increased throughput.

TRANSMIT BEAMFORMING (TXBF)

Delivers increased signal reliability and range.

In outdoor and environmentally challenging locations such as oil rigs, mining facilities, and industrial plants, networks need to be protected from extreme temperatures, flammable gas, vapor, and dust concentrations. With Class 1 Division 2 and ATEX Zone 2, the Aruba 370EX Series Access Points deliver hardened multi-gigabit Wi-Fi to hazardous locations.

The 370EX series provides a maximum aggregate data rate of over 2 Gbps (2.4GHz: 300Mbps; 5GHz: 1,733 Mbps) as well as multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), 4 spatial streams (4SS), and optional 160MHz channel bandwidth (VHT160) to quickly add performance and capacity to existing or new wireless networks.

CERTIFIED FOR EXTREME WEATHER RESILIENCY

Purpose-built to survive in the harshest environments, the 370EX Series have undergone extensive hazardous locations certification testing (Class 1 Division 2 for 375EX and 377EX, and ATEX Zone 2 for the AP-375ATEX) to demonstrate the ability to withstand exposure to high and low temperature extremes, windspeeds up to 165 mph, and tolerate persistent moisture, precipitation, and dust and salt sprays for extended periods of time. All electrical interfaces include industrial strength surge protection.

MU-MIMO AWARE CLIENT OPTIMIZATION

The 370EX Series includes Aruba's patented ClientMatch technology to eliminate sticky client issues while optimizing 802.11ac Wave 2 performance. These APs continuously gather session performance metrics to steer mobile devices to the best-available AP - even while users roam. With MUMIMO awareness, ClientMatch can group MU-MIMO capable devices together to increase network capacity and efficiency. ClientMatch also participates in Aruba's AI-powered Mobility solution.

IOT-READY

The 370EX Series includes an integrated Bluetooth Low Energy radio to simplify the deployment and management of location services, asset tracking services, security solutions and IoT sensors. This allows organizations to leverage the 360 Series as an IoT platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources.

ARUBA SECURE INFRASTRUCTURE

The Aruba 370EX Series includes components of Aruba's 360 Secure Fabric to help protect user authentication and wireless traffic. Select capabilities include:

WPA3 and Enhanced Open

Support for stronger encryption and authentication is provided via the latest version of WPA for enterprise protected networks.

Enhanced Open offers seamless new protection for users connecting to open networks where each session is automatically encrypted to protect user passwords and data on guest networks.

Fast, resilient, and secure Wi-Fi 6E connectivity

For enterprises who need more wireless capacity and wider channels, Aruba 630 Series Campus APs are designed to take advantage of the 6 GHz band via three dedicated radios. By using the 6 GHz band, capacity is more than doubled - so you can meet growing demand due to bandwidth-hungry video, increasing numbers of client and IoT devices and growth in cloud. Unique to Aruba, the 630 Series includes ultra tri-band filtering and dual 2.5 Gbps ethernet ports to eliminate coverage gaps, provide greater resiliency, and deliver fast, secure connectivity.

MORE CAPACITY AND WIDER CHANNELS

The 630 Series APs are designed to take advantage of the 6 GHz band, which translates into far greater speeds, wider channels for multi-gigabit traffic, and less interference. It delivers 3.9 Gbps maximum aggregate data rates Tri-radio, 2x2:2 MIMO in all three bands (3.9 Gbps aggregate peak).

Advantages of 6GHz

Wi-Fi 6E provides up to 1200 MHz in the 6 GHz band for higher throughput and improved application performance. With up to seven 160 MHz channels, Wi-Fi 6E can better support low-latency, bandwidth hungry applications like high-definition video and artificial reality/virtual reality applications. Only Wi-Fi 6E capable devices can use the 6 GHz band so there is no interference or slowdowns due to legacy devices.

Device class support

The 630 Series APs are part of the low power indoor (LPI) device class. This fixed indoor-only class uses lower power levels and does not require an Automated Frequency Coordination service (AFC) to manage incumbent outdoor services which is required for standard class APs.

LESS INTERFERENCE

630 Series Access Points include Aruba's ultra tri-band filtering, which enables enterprises to take advantage of the high end of 5 GHz with the lower end of 6 GHz without experiencing interference. Since there is only 50 MHz between 5 GHz and the 6 GHz, without advanced filtering, enterprises would likely experience problems between the bands and would therefore be limited in the number of channels available. By applying advanced filtering capabilities, enterprises can take full use of available spectrum without creating coverage gaps or islands.

BUSINESS CONTINUITY

The Series 630 APs provide high availability with two HPE Smart Rate ethernet ports for hitless failover for both data and power. Configurable to 1 or 2.5 Gbps, these dual ports provide business continuity for mission critical applications.

GLOBAL READINESS

While the need for more Wi-Fi capacity is recognized across the globe, countries are approaching 6 GHz differently. The 630 Series APs are set up to automatically update regulatory rules once 6E regulations have been approved and certified.
