Reasons To Buy

Flagship Wi-Fi 6E Performance

The HPE Aruba Networking 650 Series Campus Access Points, based on the 802.11ax standard, take advantage of the 6 GHz band through three 4x4 MIMO radios (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz), delivering up to 7.8 Gbps maximum tri-band aggregate data rate.
The 650 series provides high availability with two 5 GbE ports for hitless failover for both data and power, allowing these dual ports to provide business continuity for mission-critical applications with flexibility to support speeds of 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, or 5 Gbps (or 100 Mbps).
Enhanced wireless experience with HPE Aruba Networking ClientMatch technology removes sticky client issues by steering a client to the AP where it receives one of the best radio signals.
Patented UTB filtering enables enterprises to take advantage of the high end of 5 GHz with the lower end of 6 GHz without creating coverage gaps or islands.
The 650 series offers precision locationing with the support of FTM 802.11mc for precision distance ranging and built-in GPS receivers for high-accuracy indoor location measurements.

Boost Security

The HPE Aruba Networking 650 Series Campus Access Points offer enhanced security with dynamic segmentation to remove the 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.
The 650 series offers stronger encryption and authentication with WPA3, protected credential/key storage for guest access with Enhanced Open, and user and IoT access policy enforcement firewalls (PEFs).
It simplifies policy enforcement by using the PEF to encapsulate all traffic from the AP to the gateway (or mobility controller) for end-to-end encryption and inspection.
For enhanced device assurance, our APs include an installed trusted platform module (TPM) for protected storage of credentials and keys, and boot code.

AI-powered Cloud Management and Flexible Deployment

The HPE Aruba Networking 650 Series Campus Access Points can operate as stand-alone access points or with a gateway for greater scalability, security, and manageability.
HPE Aruba Networking Central is an AI-powered solution that simplifies IT operations, improves agility, and reduces costs by unifying the management of campus, branch, remote, data center, and IoT networks from one dashboard.
Zero touch provisioning (ZTP) provides ease of implementation in branch offices and remote sites, without on-site technical expertise.
You can deploy models with internal antennas or connectorized models that support external antennas to meet a range of environments.
HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi 6E APs allow countries to take advantage of Wi-Fi 6E once it is approved in the country through automated notification and easy deployment of 6 GHz regulatory rules.

Energy Saving and IoT Ready

The HPE Aruba Networking 650 Series Campus Access Points can serve as flexible IoT platforms that bolster network security and provide coverage for a broad range of IoT devices without the need for network overlays. Integrated BLE and Zigbee support make it easier to deploy and manage IoT.
Advanced IoT Coexistence (AIC) feature uses built-in filtering to allow Wi-Fi and BLE/Zigbee radios to operate at greater capacity without the impact of interference.
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.
AI-powered dynamic power save mode enables the HPE Aruba Networking 650 Series Campus Access Points to automatically wake up at a schedule when connectivity demand arises, reducing power demands and lowering the energy footprint to align with the organization’s sustainability initiatives.
The target wake time (TWT) establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an AP to help improve client power savings and reduce airtime contention.
