Wi-Fi 6 Performance for Hotels, Dorms, and Remote Offices

HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points deliver a maximum combined data rate of 1.49 Gbps with 2 spatial streams to meet the needs of low and medium density environments.
The AP provides Wi-Fi CERTIFIED with support for Wi-Fi 6 features such as OFDMA, MU-MIMO, and target wait time (TWT) to drive improved efficiency. It handles multiple Wi-Fi 6 capable clients on each channel simultaneously, regardless of device or traffic type.
Enhanced wireless experience with HPE Aruba Networking ClientMatch technology removes sticky client issues by steering a client to the AP where it receives a strong radio signal.

Flexible Deployment and Unified Management

The HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points can be installed on a wall for hotel or residence hall environments or installed with optional desktop stand for tabletop deployment.
The AP manages with HPE Aruba Networking Central, an AI-powered solution that simplifies IT operations, improves agility, and reduces costs by unifying management of campus, branch, remote, data center, and IoT networks from one dashboard.
The AP-503H model has three 1 Gbps Ethernet ports (1x 1 Gbps uplink, 2x 1 Gbps downlink). The AP-505H model has five Ethernet ports (1x 2.5 Gbps uplink, 4x 1 Gbps downlink), supports PoE out on two ports, and includes a USB port.
Product bundles for remote desktop use include access point, desk mount, power adapter, and power cord (US and EU only).
Zero touch provisioning (ZTP) provides ease of implementation in branch offices and remote sites, without on-site technical expertise.

Ready for IoT

The HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points support Bluetooth 5 and Zigbee wireless protocols through an integrated IoT radio. The AP-505H model also has an integrated USB port to support a range of IoT devices.
The AP simplifies deploying and managing IoT location services, asset-tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors.
HPE Aruba Networking Central client insights uses deep packet inspection to provide additional context and behavioral information that help verify devices are receiving proper policy enforcement and continuously monitor for rogue devices.

Simple and Secure Access

The HPE Aruba Networking 500H Series Unified Hospitality Access Points offer enhanced security with dynamic segmentation to remove time-consuming and error-prone task of managing complex and static VLANs, ACLs and subnets by dynamically assigning policies and keeping traffic protected and separated.
It offers stronger encryption and authentication with WPA3, protected credentials/keys storage for guest access with Enhanced Open, and user and IoT access policy enforcement firewalls (PEFs).
WPA3 and Enhanced Open (OWE) security increases enterprise-level security by providing stronger guest access protections without increasing complexity.
Trusted platform module (TPM) secures credentials, keys, and boot code.
