Marketing Information: Weatherproof and temperature hardened, HPE Aruba Networking 560 Series Hazardous Location Access Points deliver cost-effective Wi-Fi 6 wireless connectivity in outdoor and environmentally challenging hazardous locations.
Purpose-built to survive in the harshest outdoor environments, the 560 series can withstand exposure to extreme high and low temperatures, persistent moisture and precipitation, and are fully sealed to keep out airborne contaminants. All electrical interfaces include industrial strength surge protection.
HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi 6 access points provide high-performance connectivity for any organization experiencing growing numbers of IoT and mobility requirements. With maximum aggregate on air data rate of 1.49 Gbps (HE80/HE20), they deliver the speed and reliability needed for most environments.
HPE Aruba Networking's advanced ClientMatch technology and an integrated Bluetooth beacon can help enable HPE Aruba Networking location services.
Incredible efficiency
The 560 series access points (APs) are designed to optimize user experience by maximizing Wi-Fi efficiency and dramatically reducing airtime contention between clients.
Features include Orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA), bi-directional multi-user MIMO and cellular optimization. With up to 2 spatial streams, the 560 series provides reliable connectivity for most any application.
Advantages of OFDMA
OFDMA capability allows HPE Aruba Networking access points to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6 capable clients on each channel simultaneously, regardless of device or traffic type. Channel utilization is optimized by handling each transaction via smaller sub-carriers or resource units (RUs), which means that clients are sharing a channel yet not competing for airtime and bandwidth.
Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO)
560 series access points support downlink MU-MIMO just like Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2) access points. The added benefit is the ability to multiply the number of clients that can now send traffic, thus optimizing clientto-access point spatial stream diversity.
Wi-Fi 6 and MU-MIMO aware client optimization
HPE Aruba Networking's patented AI-powered ClientMatch technology eliminates sticky client issues by placing Wi-Fi 6 capable devices on the best available access point. Session metrics are used to steer mobile devices to the best AP based on available bandwidth, types of applications being used and traffic type - even as users roam.
HPE Aruba Networking Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
The ACC feature 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.
Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM)
HPE Aruba Networking access points continuously monitor and report hardware energy consumption. They can also be configured to enable or disable capabilities based on available PoE power - ideal when wired switches have exhausted their power budget.
IoT platform capabilities
Like all HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi 6 access points, the 560 Series includes 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 allows organizations to leverage the 560 series as an IoT platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources.
