Description
- Intelligent power monitoring. Aruba APs continuously monitor and report hardware energy consumption. APs can be configured to enable or disable capabilities based on the available PoE power - ideal when wired switches have exhausted their power budget.
- Aruba advanced cellular coexistence. This feature uses built in filtering to automatically minimize the impact of interference of high power cellular base stations, in building distributed antenna systems as well as small cell and femtocell equipment.
- Target wake time (TWT). Ideal for IoT solutions that communicate infrequently, this Wi-Fi 6 capability allows IoT devices to use 802.11ax protocol. TWT coordinates with client devices to allow them to sleep for extended periods use shorter wake times to communicate before returning to sleep. This substantially extends the useful operating life of Wi-Fi 6 based battery powered sensors.
- Advantages of OFDMA. This capability allows Aruba Wi-Fi 6 APs to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6 enabled client simultaneously on a single radio. Channel utilization is optimized by handling each transaction by matching allocated bandwidth in a channel to the offered user load.
- IoT Platform capabilities. Aruba Wi-Fi 6 APs include an integrated Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 radio (for Zigbee support) to simplify deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions and IoT sensors. This allow organizations to leverage the 518 as an IoT platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources.
- Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO). The 518 Series APs support downlink MU-MIMO similar to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2) APs. With the introduction OFDMA in Wi-Fi 6 the overhead for this capability is reduced and MU-MIMO effectiveness is substantially improved for large client counts.
- Incredible efficiency. The 518 Series APs are also designed to optimize user experience by maximizing Wi-Fi efficiency and dramatically reducing airtime contention between clients. Features include Uplink and Downlink Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), Downlink Multi-User MIMO (MU MIMO) and cellular co-location. With up to 4 spatial stream and 160 MHz channel capability the 518 provides groundbreaking wireless capabilities for any application.
- Wi-Fi 6 and MU-MIMO aware client optimization. Aruba's patented AI-powered ClientMatch technology ensures that all clients are attached to their best serving access point. Session metrics, network metrics, applications, client type, are used to identify and maintain best connection.
- Green AP energy efficiency. Aruba Wi-Fi 6 APs utilize analytics from Aruba Central to automatically transition in and out of a sleep mode.
- Aruba air slice for extended OFDMA assurance. APs in controller-less mode (Instant) can provide SLA-grade performance by allocating RUs to specific traffic types. By combining Aruba's Policy Enforcement Firewall (PEF) and Layer 7 deep packet inspection (DPI) to identify user roles and applications, the APs will dynamically allocate the bandwidth needed. Non-Wi-Fi 6 clients can also benefit.
