Aruba Instant On AP25 Wireless Access Point (Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth)

The HPE Aruba Instant On AP25 (R9B27-61001) is a powerful, compact Wi-Fi 6 access point equipped with integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), engineered for small to medium-sized businesses. It delivers blazing-fast wireless performance—up to 5.3 Gbps aggregate—via a 4x4 MU-MIMO 802.11ax radio, combined with a 2.5 GbE PoE+ uplink for superior wired throughput. Whether mounted on a wall or ceiling, it supports dense client environments like offices, retail spaces, hotels, or educational facilities. BLE adds support for proximity-based applications such as asset tracking or location services. With plug-and-play simplicity and cloud/mobile app management, AP25 offers future-ready connectivity with enterprise-grade security out of the box.

Features

Built around Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), the AP25 features a dual-band design—4x4 MIMO on 5 GHz delivering up to 4.8 Gbps, and 2x2 on 2.4 GHz at 574 Mbps, totaling 5.3 Gbps aggregated throughput . Its 2.5 GbE Ethernet uplink via PoE+ ensures the wired link matches wireless speeds . Core Wi-Fi 6 technologies like OFDMA, MU-MIMO, Target Wake Time (TWT), 1024-QAM, and BSS Coloring boost capacity, efficiency, and battery performance for client devices . BLE integration enables modern IoT applications like proximity marketing and asset tracking . Security is robust, with support for WPA2/WPA3, TPM-based credential storage, and Aruba Instant On mobile app or web management. It’s built for easy deployment, offering mesh support, secure guest Wi-Fi, and no licensing fees.

Advanced Options

The Aruba Instant On AP25 combines advanced hardware and software to deliver top-tier wireless performance with reliability. The 4x4 MU-MIMO layout maximizes spatial efficiency, while OFDMA and target wake time improve network responsiveness and reduce power usage on connected devices . A 2.5 GbE uplink preserves full wireless speeds, eliminating bottlenecks typical of 1 GbE connections . BLE support enhances utility by enabling asset tracking, visitor analytics, and other proximity-based services.
