HPE JW799A

Aruba JW799A AP‑334 802.11ac Wave 2 Dual‑Radio Wireless Access Point (External Antenna , Multi‑Gig Port)

The HPE Aruba JW799A (AP‑334) is a next-generation Wi‑Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2) access point featuring dual radios with 4×4:4 MU‑MIMO, designed for high-density indoor deployments. It delivers up to 1,733 Mbps on 5 GHz and 600 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, totaling up to 2.5 Gbps aggregate throughput. Unique among its series, the AP‑334 offers dual RJ‑45 ports—one 2.5 GbE Smart Rate and one Gigabit, allowing multi-gig wired uplink to avoid bottlenecks in backhaul. External RP‑SMA Antenna connectors provide flexibility in Antenna selection and placement for optimized coverage. Ideal for enterprise offices, campuses, or venues requiring flexible Antenna deployment and high throughput. ([turn0search9]turn0search4turn0search2turn0search15)

Features

Part of Aruba 330 Series, the AP‑334 supports MU‑MIMO to deliver simultaneous data streams to up to three Wave 2 clients on 5 GHz, improving capacity and efficiency in dense environments. It also supports 160 MHz or 80 MHz channel widths, enabling up to 1.733 Gbps to a single client with VHT80 or VHT160. The internal Bluetooth Low‑Energy beacon enables location-aware services and centralized beacon management. Technologies such as ClientMatch, Adaptive Radio Management, and beamforming (TxBF) ensure client steering, interference avoidance, and optimal RF performance.

Advanced Options

Installation supports external Antenna via 4× RP‑SMA connectors, ideal for challenging RF conditions or custom Antenna designs. Management and power are via PoE+ or direct DC, with support for multi-gig uplink using the integrated 2.5 GbE Smart Rate port. The secondary Gigabit RJ‑45 port can be used for backup or link aggregation. The AP also includes a console port and USB Type-A for local diagnostics or setup. Ideal for flexibility in ceiling or wall mounting in modern office and public venue environments. ([turn0search9]turn0search1turn0search0) Designed for high-capacity and high-density environments, the AP‑334 delivers consistent throughput even under load, thanks to MU‑MIMO and support for wide RF channels. Internal CNN-based beamforming and polarization diversity provide robust client connectivity by dynamically adapting RF patterns. ClientMatch ensures smooth roaming and optimal load balance among Wave 2 clients, while ARM dynamically avoids channel congestion. ([turn0search2]turn0search15)
