Features and Benefits:
MORE CAPACITY AND WIDER CHANNELS
The Aruba 610 Series APs are designed to take advantage of Wi-Fi 6E and the 6 GHz band, which translates into far greater speeds, wider channels for multi-gigabit traffic, and less interference. Its two 2x2 MIMO radios deliver a combined peak data rate of up to 3.6 Gbps when configured for concurrent 5 GHz and 6 GHz operation.
| Band | Channel bandwidth | Peak datarate |
|---|---|---|
| 6 GHz | 160 MHz | 2.4 Gbps |
| 5 GHz | 80 MHz | 1.2 Gbps |
| 2.4 GHz | 20 MHz | 287 Mbps |
| Total | Up to 3.6 Gbps |
Advantages of 6GHz
Wi-Fi 6E provides up to 1200 MHz of additional unlicensed spectrum in the 6 GHz band for higher throughput and improved application performance. With up to seven 160 MHz channels, Wi-Fi 6E can better support low-latency, bandwidth hungry applications like high-definition video and augmented reality/virtual reality applications. Only Wi-Fi 6E capable devices can use the 6 GHz band so there is no interference or slowdowns due to legacy devices.
Device class support
The Aruba 610 Series APs are part of the low power indoor (LPI) device class. This fixed indoor-only class uses lower power levels and does not require an Automated Frequency Coordination service (AFC) to manage incumbent outdoor services, which is required for standard class APs.
Global readiness
While the need for more Wi-Fi capacity is recognized across the globe, countries are approaching the 6 GHz band differently. The 610 Series APs are set up to automatically update regulatory rules once Wi-Fi 6E regulations have been approved and certified.
Extend the benefits of Wi-Fi 6
The Aruba 610 Series APs are based on the 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) standard, which means that all its efficiency and security enhancements are also available on the 6 GHz band. Wi-Fi 6 features such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), BSS coloring etc. are fully supported on the Aruba Wi-Fi 6E access points as well.
Advantages of OFDMA
The Aruba 610 Series is equipped with OFDMA to handle multiple 802.11ax capable clients on each channel simultaneously, regardless of device or traffic type. Channel utilization is optimized by handling each transaction via smaller sub-carriers or resource units (RUs), which means that clients are sharing a channel and not competing for airtime and bandwidth.
WI-FI OPTIMIZATION
Client optimization
Aruba’s patented AI-powered technology eliminates sticky client issues by steering a client to the AP where it receives the best radio signal. ClientMatch steers traffic from the noisy 2.4 GHz band to the preferred 5 GHz or 6 GHz band depending on client capabilities and AP setttings. ClientMatch also dynamically steers traffic to load balance APs to improve the user experience.
Automated Wi-Fi radio frequency management
To optimize the user experience and provide greater stability, Aruba AirMatch allows organizations to automate network optimization using machine learning. AirMatch provides dynamic bandwidth adjustments to support changing device density, enhanced roaming using an even distribution of Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) to radios, and real-time channel assignments to mitigate co-channel interference.
AirMatch also ensures that the two radios of Aruba 610 Series Access Points are automatically configured in the most effective and efficient way to deliver full tri-band coverage.
Application Assurance
With Aruba Air Slice, organizations can provide application assurance to their users that goes beyond the traditional capabilities of airtime fairness. After the SLAs are configured, Air Slice monitors network usage, automatically allocates radio resources, and dynamically adjusts radio resources as new users connect and applications sessions begin or end.
Aruba Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
Unique to Aruba, Advanced Cellular Coexistence uses built-in filtering to automatically minimize the impact of interference from cellular networks, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and commercial small cell or femtocell equipment.
Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM)
For better insights into energy consumption, Aruba APs continuously monitor and report hardware energy usage. Unlike other vendor’s access points, Aruba APs can also be configured to enable or disable capabilities based on available PoE power – ideal when wired switches have exhausted their power budget. Enterprises can deploy Wi-Fi 6E APs and update switching and power at a later if needed based on their actual usage.
Self-Locating APs
Indoor location shouldn’t require guesswork or costly overlay technologies. Aruba’s Wi-Fi 6 and 6E APs help organizations leverage their wireless investment to deliver indoor location – everywhere.
Aruba 610 Series Campus APs include built-in GPS receivers and intelligent software to allow them to automatically locate themselves accurately within the universal framework of latitude and longitude. As part of Aruba’s indoor location services solution, they serve as reference points for client devices using fine time measurements (802.11mc) and other location technologies.
In addition, Aruba’s Wi-Fi 6 and 6E APs support Open Locate, an emerging standard that allows APs to share their location over the air and through cloud-based APIs, enabling mobile devices to locate themselves and applications to support network analytics.
APs as an IoT transport platform
The Aruba 610 Series includes an integrated Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 radio for Zigbee support to simplify deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors. There is also a USB-port extension to provide IoT connectivity to a wider range of devices. These IoT capabilities allows organizations to leverage Aruba APs as an IoT transport platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources and can accelerate IoT initiatives.
In addition, Target Wake Time (TWT), part of the 802.11ax standard, establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an AP. This helps improve client power savings and reduces airtime contention with other clients, which is ideal for IoT.
Aruba secure infrastructure
The Aruba 610 Series includes build-security capabilities such as:
- WPA3 and Enhanced Open
Support for stronger encryption and authentication is provided via the latest version of WPA for enterpriseprotected networks. 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. - WPA2-MPSK
MPSK enables simpler passkey management for WPA2 devices – should the Wi-Fi password on one device or device type change, no additional changes are needed for other devices. This capability requires Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager - Simple and secure access
To improve security and ease of management, IT can centrally configure and automatically enforce rolebased policies that define proper access privileges for employees, guests, contractors, and other user groups – no matter where users connect on wired and WLANs. Dynamic Segmentation eliminates the time consuming and error-prone task of managing complex and static VLANs, ACLs, and subnets by dynamically assigning policies and keeping traffic secure and separated. - Seamless handoffs to cellular
Built on the technical foundations of Passpoint® and Wi-Fi Calling, Aruba Air Pass creates a roaming network across the Aruba enterprise customer footprint, extending cellular coverage and enhancing the visitor and subscriber experience to deliver a great experience for your guests while reducing costs and management overhead for DAS. - Flexible operation and management
Our APs can operate as standalone access points or with a gateway for greater scalability, security, and manageability. APs can be deployed using zero touch provisioning – without on-site technical expertise – for ease of implementation in branch offices and for remote work. Aruba APs can be managed using cloud-based or on-premises solutions for any campus, branch, or remote work environment. As the management and orchestration console for Aruba ESP (Edge Services Platform), Aruba Central provides a single pane of glass for overseeing every aspect of wired and wireless LANs, WANs, and VPNs. AI-powered analytics, end-to-end orchestration and automation, and advanced security features are built natively into the solution.
