Aruba Networks AP-134 3x3 MIMO Dual Radio Wireless Access Point 802.11a/b/g/n

Aruba Networks AP-134 3x3 MIMO Dual Radio Wireless Access Point 802.11a/b/g/n

Condition: This item has been removed from a clean office environment. It is sold as the Wireless Access Point main unit with Antennae only (as pictured). It does NOT include any mounting hardware, PSU or cables.

It is in full working order and has been reset to factory settings.

It is in very good used condition, there may be a slight bit of yellowing to the plastics and the odd minor scuff/scratch mark, but this is all purely cosmetic and will not affect the performance of the item.

Part/Model Number: AP-134

Warranty: Supplied with 90 Days Return to Base warranty.

Item details/specification.

This multifunctional AP delivers wire-like performance at data rates up to 450 Mbps per radio. Taking advantage of 802.11n technology, the AP-134 employs three spatial streams to deliver 50% more throughput and support 50% more mobile devices in high-density environments compared to previous-generation APs.

MACSec authentication and encryption on Ethernet ports enable secure AP deployment by interoperating with the MACSec capability on Aruba Mobility Access Switches and other wiring closet devices.

The AP-134 features dual 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet interfaces and operate from standard 802.3af and 802.3at power-over-Ethernet (PoE) sources. The secondary Ethernet interface (active only when supplying 802.3at PoE or DC power to the access point) enables secure authorized backhaul for wired network-attached devices.

Working with Aruba’s line of centralized Mobility Controllers, the AP-134 delivers secure, high-speed network services that move users to a “wireless where possible, wired where necessary” network access model. The network can then be rightsized by eliminating unused Ethernet switch ports and thereby reducing operating costs.

The key to ensuring wire-like performance and reliability is Aruba’s unique Adaptive Radio Management and spectrum analysis capabilities, which manage the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radio bands to deliver maximum client performance while mitigating any RF interference.

The multifunction AP-134 can be configured through the Mobility Controller to provide WLAN access with part-time air monitoring for wireless IPS and spectrum analysis. It can be configured as a dedicated air monitor within the campus WLAN or can be remotely located. It can enable wireless mesh networking for high performance network backhaul where wired cabling is not available.

Specifications.

Application: 802.11n indoor APs designed to support maximum performance for maximum client density, with maximum deployment flexibility and security.
