Aruba AP‑345 Unified Indoor Wireless Access Point
The HPE Aruba JZ031A is the part number for the Aruba AP‑345 (RW) — a high‑performance enterprise indoor wireless access point from Aruba’s 340 Series. This model delivers robust 802.11ac Wave 2 Wi‑Fi, with dual radios and 4×4 MU‑MIMO, designed to support high‑density environments such as large offices, campuses, hotels, and conference spaces where throughput and client scalability are critical.
It features Multi‑Gigabit Ethernet (SmartRate) uplink to eliminate wired bottlenecks, integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for location services and IoT integration, and can be deployed in either controller‑based (ArubaOS) or controller‑less (Instant/Aruba Instant) modes.
