HPE R9B27A-61001 Aruba Instant On AP25 Indoor Access Point
Overview
The HPE R9B27A-61001 is a high-capacity indoor access point designed for device-dense enterprise spaces such as conference rooms, retail environments or collaborative workspaces. It supports the Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard with a 4×4:4 MIMO antenna configuration, enabling maximum wireless data rates of around 4.8 Gb/s in the 5 GHz band and approximately 574 Mb/s in the 2.4 GHz band, for an aggregate throughput near 5.3 Gb/s. The unit includes a 2.5 GbE network uplink with PoE support and wall or ceiling mount capabilities, allowing flexible placement and high performance without requiring fibre links. With built-in cloud or mobile-app management and full backward compatibility with earlier Wi-Fi standards, it is well suited for enterprises looking to future-proof their wireless infrastructure, deliver high client density, and simplify network administration.
