Detailed Specifications
HPE R3V47A Aruba AP-505H Wi-Fi 6 Access Point
Overview
The HPE R3V47A is an Aruba AP-505H series unified hospitality access point, engineered to deliver high-performance Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) connectivity in environments such as hotels, residence halls, and remote offices. It addresses the growing demands of mobile, cloud, and IoT devices by providing secure, reliable access for a large number of concurrent users. This device is specifically designed to optimize the user experience by maximizing Wi-Fi efficiency and reducing airtime contention between clients. This access point leverages key Wi-Fi 6 technologies, including Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and Multi-User, Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MU-MIMO). OFDMA allows the access point to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6 clients on each channel simultaneously, improving channel utilization by serving each client with smaller sub-carriers. This results in significantly reduced latency and higher network efficiency, providing a smoother experience for all connected users, regardless of device or traffic type. With a compact form factor suitable for both desktop and wall-mounted deployment, the AP-505H is built for flexible installation. It features one 1Gbps uplink port and four 1Gbps downlink ports for local wired connectivity, with one port offering Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) to power a downstream device. Management is unified through the Aruba Central platform, which simplifies IT operations and provides AI-powered insights for network optimization.
