Product Description
HPE Aruba AP-577EX Directional Wi-Fi 6 Hazardous Location Access Point
Product Overview
The HPE Aruba AP-577EX is a high-performance, ruggedized Wi-Fi 6 access point specifically engineered for hazardous environments requiring directional antenna coverage. Certified for Class 1 Division 2 and ATEX Zone 2, this AP delivers reliable wireless connectivity in extreme conditions including oil rigs, mining operations, and chemical plants. With a maximum aggregate data rate of 2.69 Gbps, integrated Bluetooth 5, and Zigbee support, this Aruba access point is built to support both traditional Wi-Fi and IoT deployments in challenging outdoor settings.
Key Features
- Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with OFDMA, MU-MIMO, and Target Wake Time (TWT)
- Dual radio: 5 GHz 4x4 MIMO and 2.4 GHz 2x2 MIMO
- Built-in directional antennas: 5 GHz (6.3 dBi), 2.4 GHz (6.4 dBi)
- Built-in Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 (Zigbee) for IoT readiness
- Ruggedized design for extreme temperatures (-40°C to +65°C)
- Dynamic Segmentation and Policy Enforcement Firewall for enhanced security
Technology & Standards
This Aruba AP supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) with advanced features including OFDMA, MU-MIMO, and TWT for efficient multi-user communication and power savings. It includes integrated support for Bluetooth 5 and Zigbee via an 802.15.4 radio, making it an ideal platform for IoT convergence. Security is enhanced with WPA3, TPM for secure boot, and Dynamic Segmentation. The directional antennas provide focused coverage ideal for long-range applications in hazardous environments.
How It Works
The AP-577EX operates by receiving and transmitting wireless signals across two dedicated radios (5 GHz and 2.4 GHz) using directional antennas with 90°H x 90°V coverage. It uses ClientMatch technology to steer clients to the best available AP and radio. Traffic is secured through Aruba's Policy Enforcement Firewall, which encapsulates data from the AP to the gateway for end-to-end inspection. The integrated IoT radio allows concurrent operation of Bluetooth and Zigbee protocols alongside Wi-Fi, making this access point a comprehensive connectivity solution.
Applications
Ideal for hazardous and industrial environments such as:
- Oil and gas refineries and rigs with long-range requirements
- Mining and tunneling operations requiring directional coverage
- Chemical processing plants with specific coverage areas
- Outdoor logistics and transportation hubs
- Smart manufacturing and IIoT deployments
