Aruba AP-224 802.11ac Wireless Access Point
Brand: Aruba (HPE) · SKU: AP-224 · MPN: AP-224 · Category: Networking
The Aruba AP-224 is an Indoor, dual-radio Wireless Access Point from the 220 series, designed to deliver gigabit Wi-Fi performance to 802.11ac mobile devices. It features software-configurable dual radios supporting 5 GHz 802.11ac and 2.4 GHz 802.11n. Each radio supports 3x3 MIMO with three spatial streams, achieving a maximum data rate of up to 1.3 Gbps in the 5 GHz band and 600 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band. The 2.4 GHz radio also supports 802.11ac data rates using 256-QAM modulation (TurboQAM), providing a 33% boost for enabled clients. The AP includes integrated Aruba ClientMatch technology for optimizing client performance and eliminating sticky clients. It has two 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet network interfaces and supports power via 802.3af PoE (max consumption 13.5W restricted, 17W unrestricted). This model specifically has three RP-SMA connectors for external dual-band antennas. It can operate as a Controller-Managed AP or Remote AP (RAP) running ArubaOS, or potentially in controller
