The Aruba AP-305 (JX936A) connects via a single 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet uplink and draws power through 802.3af or 802.3at Power over Ethernet, making wired backhaul planning the primary deployment constraint. This dual-band indoor access point from Aruba delivers simultaneous 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz coverage with a maximum aggregate throughput of 1.6 Gbps, combining 1.3 Gbps on the 5 GHz band and 300 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. The unit supports IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wave 2 standards with 2×2:2 spatial streams on both radios, MU-MIMO capability on the 5 GHz radio, and can associate up to 255 client devices across 16 BSSIDs (8 per radio).
Network engineers and IT procurement teams deploying enterprise indoor wireless coverage will find the AP-305 operates in either Aruba Controller-managed mode using ArubaOS or controller-less Aruba Instant mode, with management through Aruba Central, Aruba Mobility Controllers, or Aruba Instant platforms. Security features include WPA3, WPA2, 802.1X authentication, and Management Frame Protection (MFP). The access point includes one USB 2.0 port and an RJ-45 console port for administration, operates across a 0°C to 40°C temperature range, and suits mid-to-large enterprise environments requiring flexible deployment options.
