Aruba Wireless Access Point with Integrated Antennas
Aruba Networks IAP-105 Access Point
The Aruba IAP-105 Instant Access Point virtualizes Aruba Mobility Controller capabilities on 802.11n access points (APs), creating a feature-rich enterprise-grade wireless LAN (WLAN) that combines affordability and configuration simplicity.
Offering impressive scalability, the Aruba IAP-105 can be installed at a single site or deployed across multiple geographically-dispersed locations. Multiple Aruba Instant APs can be managed by a single AP designated as a Virtual Controller, and multiple Virtual Controller networks can be centrally managed with the Aruba AirWave™ network management system.
Key Features
- Requires no ongoing service fees, additional license fees, or management appliances.
- Easily deployed in minutes with little or no IT assistance.
- Performs PCI-compliant rogue AP detection.
- Works with ClearPass Access Management System to provide secure, self-service network access for guests and employees who connect using their own mobile devices.
- For investment protection, Aruba Instant can be re-imaged as an 802.11n campus AP and migrated to a centralized Mobility Controller architecture.
The Aruba Networks IAP-105 brings affordability to high-density Wi-Fi areas.
VIRTUAL CONTROLLER TECHNOLOGY
EASE OF DEPLOYMENTAruba Instant is up and running in minutes. From a laptop, simply connect wirelessly to an SSID to perform over-the-air provisioning in minutes. To expand wireless coverage, simply install more Aruba Instant APs – configurations are automatically distributed from the Virtual Controller.
MANAGEMENT AND VISIBILITY
Multiple Aruba Instant networks can be securely and centrally managed by AirWave, allowing Aruba Instant to operate in hundreds of distributed locations. With AirWave, IT has real-time visibility into users, mobile devices, and the wired and wireless infrastructure from a single management console. The multifunction Aruba Instant can be configured to provide WLAN access with part-time air monitoring, dedicated air monitoring for wireless IPS and spectrum analysis, or secure enterprise mesh functionality.
INVESTMENT PROTECTION
As application and WLAN requirements change over time, Aruba Instant can migrate to a centralized Mobility Controller architecture that supports up to 2,048 APs.
Application
Cost-effective indoor 802.11n single- or dual-radio, dual-band APs for low- to extremely high-density deployments
Operating Mode
- 802.11a/b/g/n AP
- Spectrum monitor
- Air monitor (AM)
Radios
Software-configurable single/dual radio capable of supporting 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
- IAP-134/IAP-135: Dual radio 802.11n-capable, implementing 3×3 MIMO with three spatial streams, providing up to 450 Mbps data rate per radio
- IAP-105: Dual radio 802.11n-capable, implementing 2×2 MIMO with two spatial streams, providing up to 300 Mbps data rate per radio• IAP-92/IAP-193: Single radio 802.11n-capable, implementing 2×2 MIMO with two spatial streams, providing up to 300 Mbps data rate per radio
RF Management
- Automatic transmit power and channel management control with auto coverage-hole correction via Adaptive Radio Management (ARM)
- Spectrum analysis remotely scans the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radio bands to identify sources of RF interference. This provides visibility into non-802.11 RF interference sources and their effect on 802.11n channel quality.
