Overview:
The multi-functional Wave 2 303H access point delivers best-in class Wi-Fi connectivity for hospitality and branch offices, enabling an always-on user experience with low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
With a maximum concurrent data rate of 867Mbps in the 5GHz band and 300Mbps in the 2.4GHz band, the 303H AP delivers high-performance Gigabit Wi-Fi for hospitality and branch environments at an attractive price point. It supports multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) and 2 spatial streams (2SS) to provide simultaneous data transmission for up to 2 devices, maximizing data throughput and improving network efficiency.
The 303H AP can be easily mounted to a standard data wall-box using the existing structured cabling system or converted to a desk mounted AP using an optional mounting kit. It is ideal for schools (dormitories, classrooms), hotels, medical clinics, branch offices and remote workstations which often require flexible and easy deployment options.
The 802.11ac Wave 2 303H AP combines wireless and wired access in a single compact device. Three local Gigabit Ethernet ports are available to securely attach wired devices to your network. One of these ports is also capable of supplying PoE power to the attached device.
Like all other Aruba Wave 2 APs, the 303H AP includes the enhanced ClientMatch™ technology that extends the client steering technology with MU-MIMO client awareness. It automatically identifies MU-MIMO capable mobile devices and steers those devices to the closest MU-MIMO capable Aruba access point to achieve the best WLAN performance in a mixed device environment during the technology transition period.
The integrated Bluetooth Aruba Beacon in the 303H AP simplifies the remote management of a large scale network of battery-powered BLE Aruba Beacons while also providing advanced location and indoor wayfinding, and proximity-based push notification capabilities.

CHOOSE YOUR DEPLOYMENT AND OPERATING MODES
Aruba Unified APs offer a choice of deployment and operating modes to meet your unique management and deployment requirements:
- The 303H AP is a unified AP that supports both controller-based and controllerless deployment modes, providing maximum flexibility
- Controller-based mode: When deployed in conjunction with an Aruba Mobility Controller, Aruba APs offer centralized configuration, data encryption, policy enforcement and network services, as well as distributed and centralized traffic forwarding.
- Controllerless (Instant) mode: The controller function is virtualized in a cluster of APs in Instant mode. As the network grows and/or requirements change, Instant deployments can easily migrate to controller-based mode.
- Remote AP (RAP) mode for branch deployments
- Air monitor (AM) for wireless IDS, rogue detection and containment
- Spectrum analyzer, dedicated or hybrid, for identifying sources of RF interference
- Secure enterprise mesh
For large installations across multiple sites, the Aruba Activate service significantly reduces deployment time by automating device provisioning, firmware upgrades, and inventory management. With Aruba Activate, APs in Instant mode can configure themselves when powered up.
Benefits:
Two devices in one
The 303H ships with everything you need to deploy as a wall-mounted (hospitality) AP, attaching directly to a standard single-gang data wall-box. The 303H can also be easily converted to a desk mounted (remote) AP, using an optional accessory stand.
Unified AP - deploy with or without controller
The 303H can be deployed in either controller-based (ArubaOS) or controllerless (InstantOS) deployment mode.
Dual Radio 802.11ac access point with Multi-User MIMO (Wave 2)
Supports up to 867Mbps in the 5GHz band (with 2SS/VHT80 clients) and up to 300Mbps in the 2.4GHz band (with 2SS/HT40 clients).
Built-in Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) radio
Enables location-based services with BLE-enabled mobile devices receiving signals from multiple Aruba Beacons at the same time.
Enables management of your deployment of battery- powered Aruba Beacons.
Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
Minimizes the impact from out-of-band interference from sources such as 3G/4G cellular networks.
Intelligent Power Monitoring (IPM)
Enables the AP to continuously monitor and report its actual power consumption and optionally make autonomous decisions to prioritize capabilities when power budget is limited.
For the 303H, the IPM power-save feature applies when the unit is powered by an 802.3af or 802.3at POE source. By default, the USB interface will be the first feature to be turned off by IPM if the AP power consumption would otherwise exceed the available power budget. Specific power-saving options are programmable with IPM.
RF Management
Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology automatically assigns channel and power settings, provides airtime fairness and ensures that APs stay clear of all sources of RF interference to deliver reliable, high- performance WLANs
The 303H can be configured to provide part-time or dedicated air monitoring for spectrum analysis and wireless intrusion protection, VPN tunnels to extend remote locations to corporate resources, and wireless mesh connections where Ethernet drops are not available.
Security
Integrated wireless intrusion protection ofers threat protection and mitigation, and eliminates the need for separate RF sensors and security appliances.
IP reputation and security services identify, classify, and block malicious files, URLs and IPs, providing comprehensive protection against advanced online threats.
Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure storage of credentials, certificates and keys.
Intelligent app visibility and control
AppRF technology leverages deep packet inspection to classify and block, prioritize or limit bandwidth for over 2,500 enterprise apps or groups of apps.
Quality of service for unified communication apps
Supports priority handling and policy enforcement for unified communication apps, including Microsoft Skype for Business with encrypted videoconferencing, voice, chat and desktop sharing.
