Description
Aruba 203H Access Point
Aruba 203H Access Point Unified flexible radio 802.11ac 2×2:2SS hospitality and branch AP with internal antennas Supports wall-box and desk mount deployments
Flexible radio architecture
Software configurable to operate in either 1×1 dual radio mode, or 2×2 single radio dual-band mode.
Supports up to 867Mbps in the 5GHz band (with 2SS/VHT80 clients) or up to 400Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band (with 2SS/VHT40 clients).
In 1×1 dual radio mode, these max speeds are up to 433Mbps (5GHz) and 200Mbps (2.4GHz).
Minimize RF interference with ARM
Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology automatically assigns channel and power settings, provides airtime fairness, and ensures that access points stay clear of all sources of RF interference to deliver reliable, high-performance WLANs.
Aruba 203H Access Point Policy-based access control
Dynamic Segmentation enforces real-time, device-level access policies on Aruba wired and wireless networks.
Intelligent app visibility with AppRF
AppRF technology leverages deep packet inspection to classify and block, prioritize, or limit bandwidth for thousands of applications in a range of categories.
