HPE R3V38A ? Aruba AP-503H Dual-Radio Wi-Fi 6 Access Point
Overview
The HPE R3V38A (Aruba AP-503H) is a dual-radio Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) indoor access point configured for lower-to-mid density deployments (such as hotel guest rooms, branch offices, dorms). It uses a 2?2:2 MIMO configuration (two transmit, two receive) across both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The design includes three RJ-45 ports (one uplink + two downlink or LAN ports) and a USB port for IoT support or custom applications. The model is part of the ?500H? hospitality/branch series, supporting features like OFDMA, MU-MIMO, TWT and WPA3 for modern wireless client requirements.?
This unit is a good choice when you need a WiFi 6-capable AP for a branch or hospitality environment with moderate user density, where high-end 4?4 APs would be over-spec?d.
Key Features
-
Supports Wi-Fi 6 with 2?2:2 spatial streams, enabling up to approximately 1.5 Gbps aggregate (in optimal conditions) for typical branch/hospitality loads.?
-
Three Gigabit Ethernet ports (one uplink + two LAN/daisy-chain) allow flexible wiring in branch-office or hotel room networks.?
-
USB port for IoT, BLE beaconing or custom integration ? useful in hospitality/branch settings for location services or guest devices.?
-
Internal semi-directional antennas reduce installation complexity, and the compact design fits standard ceiling or wall mount with hotel/branch aesthetics.?
