HPE R3V48A Aruba AP-505H Dual-Band Access Point

The HPE R3V48A is a unified hospitality access point belonging to the Aruba 500H series, engineered to deliver high-performance Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) connectivity. It is specifically designed for environments such as hotels, university residence halls, branch offices, and teleworker setups where a combination of reliable wireless and wired access is critical in a compact, wall-mounted or desktop form factor. The primary role of this device is to provide secure, high-speed network access for a growing density of mobile, cloud, and IoT devices in a cost-effective package. This access point leverages key Wi-Fi 6 technologies to enhance network efficiency and reduce contention. It features Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), which allows the AP to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6 clients on each channel simultaneously. This translates to optimized channel utilization and less competition for airtime and bandwidth, a tangible benefit in environments with numerous connected devices. The unit delivers a combined wireless data rate of up to 1.5 Gbps, ensuring smooth performance for demanding applications. Designed for flexible deployment, the AP-505H can be mounted on a wall or placed on a desk with an optional stand. It provides both wireless and wired connectivity in a single device, featuring four Gigabit Ethernet ports for local wired connections and a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet uplink port. Management is streamlined through Aruba's Zero Touch Provisioning, enabling rapid deployment at remote sites without needing on-site technical expertise, which simplifies network rollouts and reduces operational overhead.
