The Aruba RAP-109-US delivers secure 802.11 n wireless and wired networking to SMBs and access to corporate resources from branch and home offices. The RAP-109-US can operate in Aruba Instant mode controlled by the AirWave management platform or in controller-managed mode where all network services are centralized by Aruba mobility controllers. In Aruba instant mode, traffic is locally bridged but it still provides the flexibility of secure tunneling to mobility controllers. The RAP-109-US offers a wide range of enterprise-class features, including role-based network access, policy-based forwarding, and Adaptive Radio Management (ARM), which optimizes Wi-Fi client performance and ensures that Aruba APs stay clear of interference.
At locations that require greater coverage, the RAP-109-US can join an Aruba Instant WLAN cluster. Simply install additional RAP-109-USs or any Aruba Instant AP and the entire cluster is managed as one. If one Aruba Instant AP fails, another AP automatically takes over with no disruption.
