What Is Aruba Instant On?
Aruba is a subsidiary of the revered Hewlett Packard Enterprise software company.
Aruba Instant On’s tagline is ‘Wi-Fi designed with small businesses in mind’.
Intended for businesses without the resources to hire or train network administrators to manage a secure business network full time, Aruba Instant On is designed to be easy and fast to manage.
With a focus on out-of-the-box functionality and ease of use, Aruba nevertheless manages to maintain a high standard of device security. A range of managed network switches covers firewall and traffic filtering responsibilities, while all products can be managed via the smartphone app or cloud-hosted management platform.
The Aruba Instant On Line of Products
The Instant On range is focused; each product has its own firm place in the lineup.
This is another reason the range is so good for SMBs. Being so focussed makes it easy for even time-starved small businesses without much technical expertise to understand which products they need and what value they bring to the network.
The range includes indoor and outdoor wireless access points and managed gigabit network switches.
Though there are no routers in the range, security features are built-in to restrict and filter network traffic at a level appropriate for businesses. Businesses can therefore use their ISP-provided router as a simple gateway and leave the advanced security measures to Aruba’s managed switches.
All APs offer mesh capabilities and, depending on the model, various types of MIMO. The AP11, for example, is 2x2 MIMO while the AP15 is 4x4.
Who Are Aruba Products For?
Anyone who loves the ease of adoption, setup and management of products from the likes of Ubiquiti will love Aruba Instant On.
Aruba products are perfect for medium-density, small business environments where the maximum is demanded of each network device to maximise the cost-to-benefit ratio of the deployment.
Even Aruba’s entry-level APs like the AP11 and AP11D offer 1.2Gbps wireless throughput and scale up to 25 APs in deployment without adding unexpected cost or complexity.
Manage multiple sites and multiple networks through the mobile app or cloud-hosted web interface.
