        Next-Generation 802.11AX WI-FI Features
        Overview
        AP22 is a Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6™ (Wi-Fi 6) access
          point that brings higher capacity, efficiency, and
          performance to small businesses with dense
          deployments. With a maximum aggregate data rate
          of 1.7 Gbps, AP22 access points deliver the speed
          and reliability small businesses need.
        Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)
        Allows access points (APs) to handle multiple Wi-Fi
          6-capable clients on each channel simultaneously—
          regardless of device or traffic type. This improves
          efficiency by boosting overall capacity, while reducing
          latency.
        Target Wake Time (TWT)
        Ideal for IoTs that communicate infrequently, TWT
          establishes a schedule for when clients need to
          communicate with an AP. This helps reduce power
          consumption, extending the battery life of clients.
        Multiuser, Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MU-MIMO)
        Allows you to serve multiple clients (Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6) at the same time.
        1024-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (1024-QAM)
        Enables a 25% data increase over 256 QAM, improving throughput in your access points and devices. 
        Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
        All Aruba Instant On access points have an installed TPM for secure storage of credentials, keys, and boot codes.
        Basic Service Set Coloring (BSS COLORING)
        Allows the network to assign a “color” tag to a
          channel and reduce the threshold for interference.
          Network performance is improved because APs
          on the same channel can be closer together and
          still transmit at the same time—as long as they are
          different colors.
        Aruba Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
        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.
        Low Density Parity Check (LDPC)
        Delivers high-efficiency error correction for
          increased throughput.
        Transmit Beamforming (TXBF)
        Delivers increased signal reliability and range. 
       
      
        The Instant On Differentiator
        The Aruba Instant On App
        Manage everything through our official app on the
          device of your choice. Manage your network from
          anywhere, anytime- all from the palm of your hand.
        built-in security gateway/firewall
        Stop unwanted people and bots from accessing
          your network. Leverage advanced features that do
          not require external gateways—or the complexity
          that comes with them. Quickly and easily swap it out
          with another AP in a single click, in case of gateway
          failure. With the new Cloudflare integration you get
          private and fast web browsing. The 802.11k standard
          improves roaming performance helping clients
          connect to nearby APs quickly.
        Complete App Visibility And Control
        Get full visibility into the apps running on your
          network. Block certain applications from being used.
          Manage this feature straight from the Aruba Instant
          On app.
        Tailored User Experiences
        Customize the experience with logos,
          authentications, and rules of use. Set data usage per
          app. Limit duration of use. Use an external portal
          or service like Facebook Wi-Fi. Create open guest
          networks for quick and easy access. With Instant
          On mobile app, you can apply bandwidth limits for
          your clients or your network for prioritizing certain
          primary networks.
        Enterprise Grade Wi-Fi And Features
        Control network widths, channels, and channel
          widths to suit your specific environment. Keep users
          happy as they move between spaces or meetings
          with a seamless handoff between APs. Just provide
          secure WPA2 or WPA3 authentication on your
          networks and we’ll do the rest. Instant On supports
          OWE for secure, open Wi-Fi network access at cafes,
          retail stores and restaurants.
        Site Inventory And Topology View
        The site inventory view lists all the Instant On
          switches and access points on a single interface,
          and the topology view provides an intuitive structure
          of all Instant On devices deployed in a network —
          allowing you to quickly identify non-functioning
          devices and troubleshoot accordingly. Network
          issues can be easily diagnosed with connectivity
          tests like Ping and Traceroute.
        Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
        As the number of security breaches continue to rise,
          2FA has become an essential tool to mitigate risk
          against compromised login credentials. Two-Factor
          Authentication (2FA), provides an additional layer of
          authentication, prevents attackers from remotely
          accessing your network, and secures your customer
          information. 
        Multi-Site Management
        Manage multiple sites, multiple networks, distributed
          deployments, and multi-tenancy deployments with
          ease through our cloud-hosted web interface and
          mobile app. Create unique configurations, statistics,
          guest portals, and admin read/write and readonly privileges for every site. Instant On allows you
          to create three admin accounts per site, offering
          an option to lock accounts to prevent them from
          accidental deletion.
        PPPoE And Static IP
        Every customer has different environment. They
          might want to authenticate with the ISP’s PPPoE
          server and provide static IP to the APs.
        Smart Mesh
        Extend coverage to hard-to-reach spaces where
          Ethernet cabling may not exist. Set up a Mesh
          network up in minutes through the app—indoors
          or out.
        5-Star Voice And Video Quality
        Keep users connected via softphones and mobile
          apps. Automatically detect and prioritize voice
          and video applications such as Skype, FaceTime,
          and WeChat that use SIP, SCCP and other
          popular protocols.
