HPE R7J49-61001

Aruba AP‑615 Dual‑Radio Tri‑Band Wi‑Fi 6E Wireless Access Point

The HPE Aruba R7J49‑61001 (AP‑615) is a Wi‑Fi 6E indoor campus access point featuring dual programmable 2×2:2 radios that can operate across two of three bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz). It delivers a combined peak data rate of up to 3.6 Gbps—enabling high-bandwidth applications in enterprise office or branch environments. Equipped with a Smart Rate 2.5 GbE RJ‑45 port and PoE (802.3af Class 3) support, it connects easily to modern LAN infrastructure. With integrated Bluetooth 5 and Zigbee IoT support, plus GPS/FTM-based indoor location features, it's ideal for scalable, secure, and intelligent deployments.

Features

Part of Aruba 610 Series, the AP‑615 exploits Wi‑Fi 6E’s new 6 GHz spectrum (up to 1200 MHz extra bandwidth) to deliver up to seven 160 MHz channels—perfect for latency-sensitive video, AR/VR, and dense device environments. Each unit houses two 2×2:2 radios that are software-configurable to cover any two of the three available bands, enabling effective tri-band coverage when multiple APs are deployed. The inclusion of OFDMA, MU‑MIMO, Target Wake Time, and BSS Coloring enhances performance, power efficiency, and client capacity. Aruba-specific features such as ClientMatch, Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC), and Intelligent Power Monitoring further optimize client roaming and energy use. Integrated GPS and FTM support location services and indoor positioning without additional hardware. All of this is managed via Aruba AOS‑CX, supporting controller-based, cloud-based, or Instant On deployments with ease and automation.

Advanced Options

Engineered for high-efficiency indoor deployments, the AP‑615 consumes low power (Class 3 PoE), and its thermal design suits ceiling or wall mounting without fans. Performance testing shows Wi‑Fi 6E coverage can exceed 3 Gbps in real-world use, utilizing the expanded 6 GHz band for ultra-low latency and minimal interference. Its smart RF algorithms—ClientMatch and ACC—ensure seamless roaming and interference avoidance in dense client environments.
