Incredible Efficiency
The HPE Aruba Networking 510 Series Campus Access Points are also designed to optimize user experience by maximizing Wi-Fi efficiency and dramatically reducing airtime contention between clients.
Features include Orthogonal frequency‑division multiple access (OFDMA), multi‑user MIMO and cellular optimization. With up to 4 spatial streams (4SS) and 160 MHz channel bandwidth (VHT160), the 510 Series provides groundbreaking wireless capabilities for any enterprise.
Advantages of OFDMA
This capability allows HPE Aruba Networking access points to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6 capable clients on each channel simultaneously, regardless of device or traffic type. Channel utilization is optimized by handling each transaction via smaller sub-carriers or resource units (RUs), which means that clients are sharing a channel and not competing for airtime and bandwidth.
Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO)
The 510 Series APs support downlink MU‑MIMO (5 GHz radio) to maximize the use of its MIMO radio capabilities by simultaneously exchanging data with multiple single or dual stream client devices.
Wi-Fi Optimization
Client Optimization
Patented AI‑powered HPE Aruba Networking ClientMatch technology eliminates sticky client issues by steering a client to the AP where it receives the best radio signal. ClientMatch steers traffic from the noisy 2.4 GHz band to the preferred 5 GHz or 6 GHz band depending on client capabilities.
ClientMatch also dynamically steers traffic to load balance access points to improve the user experience.
Automated Wi-Fi radio frequency management
To optimize the user experience and provide greater stability, HPE Aruba Networking AirMatch allows organizations to automate network optimization using machine learning. AirMatch provides dynamic bandwidth adjustments to support changing device density, enhanced roaming using an even distribution of Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) to radios, and real-time channel assignments to mitigate co‑channel interference.
HPE Aruba Networking Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
This feature uses built-in filtering to automatically minimize the impact of interference from cellular networks, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and commercial small cell or femtocell equipment.
Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM)
HPE Aruba Networking access points continuously monitor and report hardware energy consumption. They can also be configured to enable or disable capabilities based on available PoE power — ideal when wired switches have exhausted their power budget.
IoT ready
The 510 series includes an integrated Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 radio (for Zigbee support) to simplify deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors. This allows organizations to leverage the 510 series as an IoT platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources
Target Wake Time (TWT)
Ideal for IoT devices that communicate infrequently, TWT establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an AP. This helps improve client power savings and reduces airtime contention with other clients.
Foundation for Accurate Indoor Location
HPE Aruba Networking APs act as a foundation for accurate indoor location so that location-aware services can be deployed at scale. Using embedded GPS receivers, HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi 6E access points are able to self-locate and work with Wi-Fi 6 Aaccess points Ps to establish reference points that can be used to accurately determine indoor client location.
Because they use universal latitude and longitude coordinates, there is no need for custom map development or to create separate applications for indoor and outdoor environments.
HPE Aruba Networking Secure Infrastructure
The 510 series includes components of HPE Aruba Networking Zero Trust and SASE framework to help protect user authentication and wireless traffic. Select capabilities include:
WPA3 and Enhanced Open
Support for stronger encryption and authentication is provided via the latest version of WPA for enterprise protected networks.
Enhanced Open offers seamless new protection for users connecting to open networks where each session is automatically encrypted to protect user passwords and data on guest networks.
WPA2-MPSK
MPSK enables simpler passkey management for WPA2 devices — should the Wi-Fi password on one device or device type change, no additional changes are needed for other devices. Requires ClearPass Policy Manager.
VPN tunnels
In remote access point (RAP) and IAP-VPN deployments, the 510 Series can be used to establish a secure SSL/IPSec VPN tunnel to a mobility controller that is acting as a VPN concentrator.
Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
For enhanced device assurance, all HPE Aruba Networking access points have an installed TPM for secure storage of credentials and keys, and boot code.
Simple and Secure Access
To simplify policy enforcement, the 510 seriesuses HPE Aruba Networking’s policy enforcement firewall (PEF) feature to encapsulate all traffic from the access point to the mobility controller (or gateway) for end-to-end encryption and inspection. Policies are applied based on user role, device type, applications, and location. This reduces the manual configuration of SSIDs, VLANs, and ACLs. PEF also serves as the underlying technology for HPE Aruba Networking Dynamic Segmentation.
Flexible Operation and Management
Our unified access points can operate as standalone APs or with a gateway for greater scalability, security, and manageability. Access pointscan be deployed using zero touch provisioning — without on-site technical expertise — for ease of implementation in branch offices and for remote work.
HPE Aruba Networking access points can be managed using cloud-based or on-premises solutions for any campus, branch, or remote work environment. HPE Aruba Networking Central provides a single pane of glass for overseeing every aspect of wired and wireless LANs, WANs, and VPNs. AI‑powered analytics, end-to-end orchestration and automation, and advanced security features are built natively into the solution.

- Transmit beamforming (TxBF) increases signal reliability and range
