• Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
• Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM)
• Target Wake Time (TWT)
• Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
• Flexible operation and management

Extra Features

• This capability allows Aruba Wi-Fi 6 AP to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6-enabled clients simultaneously on a single radio. Channel utilization is optimized per transaction by matching allocated bandwidth in a channel to the offered user load. These sub divisions of the channel are referred to as Resource Units (RUs).
• Initially, 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.
• The 577EX AP supports 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.
• Aruba’s patented AI-powered ClientMatch technology ensures that all clients are attached to their best serving access point. Session metrics, network metrics, applications and client type are used to identify and maintain the best connection.
• The ACC 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.
• 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.
