HPE R4H08A Aruba Ap-518 Indoor wireless access point

The HPE R4H08A is a component of the Aruba 518 Series, specifically a hardened wireless access point designed for high-performance connectivity in harsh, weather-protected indoor or sheltered environments. It is engineered to deliver secure and reliable Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) access for enterprise networks facing extreme temperatures and potential moisture, such as warehouses, industrial freezers, or stadiums. This unit solves the challenge of deploying robust wireless coverage in locations where standard enterprise access points would fail due to environmental constraints. This access point leverages Wi-Fi 6 technologies like OFDMA and MU-MIMO to optimize multi-client performance and reduce contention in high-density deployments. It features a dual-radio design with 4×4 MIMO on the 5GHz band and 2×2 MIMO on the 2.4GHz band, delivering a maximum aggregate data rate of approximately 3 Gbps. These features translate to greater efficiency and higher throughput, ensuring a stable connection for a large number of concurrent users and IoT devices. Designed for operational resilience, the R4H08A is built to withstand temperatures ranging from -40°C to +65°C. Its physical design is sealed to protect against airborne contaminants, and all electrical interfaces include industrial-grade surge protection. Management is flexible, with support for ArubaOS and InstantOS, allowing it to be integrated seamlessly into existing Aruba network infrastructures. This model is TAA compliant, making it suitable for deployment in government and public sector projects.
