Product Overview
The HP Aruba AP-203RP (IL) is a powerful and TAA-compliant wireless access point engineered for secure, high-performance remote networking. Built to support the latest IEEE 802.11ac standard, it delivers dual-radio performance with maximum data rates of 867 Mbps on 5 GHz and 400 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. Designed for indoor deployment, this compact remote access point features two internal omni-directional antennas and supports advanced features like 2T2R MIMO, Transmit Beamforming (TxBF), and Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) to enhance reliability and throughput across dense network environments.
The AP-203RP is equipped for seamless integration with ArubaOS and InstantOS and supports up to 255 concurrent wireless clients per radio, with 16 BSSIDs per radio. It also features extensive security support, including a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and wireless intrusion protection. Its flexible power options include PoE+, allowing deployment without local power sources. A total of three Gigabit Ethernet ports—including one PoE-enabled port—offer high-speed uplink and local network connectivity.
