JZ173A New HPE Aruba AP-375 Wireless access point Wi-Fi Dual Band

JZ173A is a wireless access point manufactured by Aruba Networks. It is part of the Aruba 370 Series Access Points, which are designed to deliver high-performance Wi-Fi to outdoor and environmentally challenging locations. The Aruba 370 Series Access Points are weatherproof and temperature-hardened, making them capable of withstanding exposure to high and low temperature extremes, windspeeds up to 165 mph, and persistent moisture, precipitation, dust, and salt sprays for extended periods of time.

The JZ173A model is equipped with dual 2×2:2/4×4:4 radio integrated omni antennas, which deliver multi-gigabit Wi-Fi to outdoor environments. It supports 802.11ac Wave 2 protocols and has a maximum aggregate data rate of over 2 Gbps (2.4GHz: 300Mbps; 5GHz: 1,733 Mbps). The JZ173A model also includes multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), 4 spatial streams (4SS), and optional 160MHz channel bandwidth (VHT160) to quickly add performance and capacity to existing or new wireless networks.

The JZ173A model is designed to be IoT-ready, with an integrated Bluetooth Low Energy radio that simplifies the deployment and management of location services, asset tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors 1. This allows organizations to leverage the 370 Series as an IoT platform, eliminating the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources.

The JZ173A model includes Aruba’s patented ClientMatch technology, which eliminates sticky client issues while optimizing 802.11ac Wave 2 performance. These APs continuously gather session performance metrics to steer mobile devices to the best-available AP – even while users roam. With MU- MIMO awareness, ClientMatch can group MU-MIMO capable devices together to increase network capacity and efficiency.

The JZ173A model is part of Aruba’s 360 Secure Fabric, which helps protect user authentication and wireless traffic 1. It supports WPA3 and Enhanced Open, providing stronger encryption and authentication via the latest version of WPA for enterprise protected networks 1. Enhanced Open offers seamless new protection for users connecting to open networks where each session is automatically encrypted to protect user passwords and data on guest networks.

In summary, the JZ173A model is a high-performance wireless access point designed for outdoor and environmentally challenging locations. It is equipped with dual 2×2:2/4×4:4 radio integrated omni antennas, multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), 4 spatial streams (4SS), and optional 160MHz channel bandwidth (VHT160) to quickly add performance and capacity to existing or new wireless networks.
