Frequently asked questions

Does the Aruba Networks 550 Series Wireless Access Point include a controller licence?

Some vendors bundle cloud controller licensing (Meraki, Aruba Central), others ship with on-prem controller licensing (Cisco WLC, Aruba MM). We clarify licensing during quoting and bundle controller seats matched to AP count.

Can it be ceiling-mounted or wall-mounted?

All enterprise APs ship with mounting hardware for ceiling, wall, or T-bar mount. Outdoor variants include rugged enclosures rated IP65/IP67. Pole-mount brackets are available as optional accessories.

What roaming and seamless handover does it support?

802.11r Fast BSS Transition, 802.11k/v assisted roaming, and band steering are supported on modern Wi-Fi 6 / 6E / 7 APs. Voice-grade roaming with sub-50ms handover for Microsoft Teams Phone / Cisco Webex Calling.

Do you supply matching PoE switches?

Yes — we quote PoE+ / PoE++ switches alongside APs to ensure sufficient per-port power budget (especially for Wi-Fi 7 APs which can draw up to 60W).
