Product Overview
The HPE Aruba Networking 610 Series extends all the benefits of Wi-Fi 6 to the 6 GHz band: speed, more 80/160 MHz channels, and less interference to support high-definition video and more clients.
Cost-effective and compact
For enterprises who needed more wireless capacity and/or wider channels, the HPE Aruba Networking 610 Series features two radios that can be tuned to any two of the three available spectrum bands for cost-effective connectivity in a compact form factor. The 610 Series provides tri-band coverage when deployed in a multi-AP environment.
Highly efficient and secure
Wi-Fi 6E extends support to the 6 GHz band based on the 802.11ax standard. 802.11ax provides greater efficiency and higher levels of guest and password security with orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA), Enhanced Open, and WPA3. The 610 Series APs also offer client optimization, automated radio frequency management, and intelligent power monitoring.
Greater IoT support
HPE Aruba Networking 610 Series APs act as an IoT transport platform without the need to deploy or manage overlay gateways. The APs include integrated Bluetooth Low Energy 5 (BLE) and 802.15.4/Zigbee radios plus dynamic segmentation for added security making it easier to deploy and manage.
Features
Ideal for branch and small campus environments, HPE Aruba Networking 610 Series Wi-Fi 6E APs offer fast, secure connectivity.
6 GHz support
Maximum combined 3.6 Gbps data rate for higher throughput and faster speeds indoors (when using 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands).
Configurable dual radios
Support for any two of three Wi-Fi 6E bands (2.4, 5, and 6 GHz) and can provide full Wi-Fi 6E coverage in a multi-AP environment.
Low power, compact form factor
Compact form with 802.3af, class 3 power and the ability to enable/disable capabilities based on available POE.
2.5 Gbps Smart Rate Ethernet port
Increase speed and minimize wired bottlenecks with a Smart Rate Ethernet port.
Indoor location ready
Built in GPS receivers and fine time measurement (FTM) enable APs to automatically locate themselves and serve as reference points for accurate client location.
Application assurance
HPE Aruba Networking Air Slice dynamically allocates and tunes radio resources to ensure application service levels and optimize the user experience.
