Description
AP-515 Aruba 510 series Wireless Access Point
High performance 802.11ax enterprise access points for campus deployments
The Aruba 510 series campus access points with 802.11ax technology are designed to deliver high performance access for mobile and (IoT) devices in environments where density is an issue. The 510 series uses 802.11ax features to efficiently and simultaneously serve multiple clients and traffic types in dense environments, increasing data rates for both individual device and overall system.
The 510 series support all mandatory and several optional 802.11ax features, which includes up- and downlink OFDMA* with up to 16 resource units, multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO)*, 4×4 MIMO with up to four spatial streams in 5GHz and 2×2 with up to two special streams in 2.4GHz, channel bandwidths up to 160MHz (5GHz; 40MHz in 2.4GHz), and 1024-QAM modulation.
The 510 series supports maximum data rates of 4.8Gbps in the 5GHz band and 575Mbps in the 2.4GHz band (for an aggregate peak data rate of 5.4Gbps). Each AP supports up to 256 associated client devices per radio (typical recommended limit for active clients is 150), making the mid-range 802.11ax 510 series APs ideal for high density environments, such as schools, retail branches, hotels and enterprise offices.
In addition to 802.11ax standard capabilities, the 510 Series supports unique features like Aruba ClientMatch radio management and additional radios for location services and IoT applications. This delivers an unsurpassed user experience in today’s all-wireless digital work environment and offers up to 4x higher capacity in a cost-effective manner.

Benefits:
HIGH EFFICIENCY
The Aruba 510 Series will efficiently and simultaneously serve multiple clients, increasing data rates for both individual devices and as an overall system. Two key features of 802.11ax are multi-user connectivity and enhanced efficiency using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)* and multi-user – multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO).
UNSURPASSED PERFORMANCE
In addition to the standard 802.11ax capabilities, Aruba’s ClientMatch technology will automatically detect and classify mobile devices with common characteristics, group these devices, and match them with the best AP’s and radios to the optimize performance of the network. For example, ClientMatch will automatically attempt to group 802.11ax capable devices onto available AP radios with equivalent capabilities, so that the performance benefits of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) are maximized. This means increased network performance and a boost in network capacity. The AP-510 series run on ArubaOS 8, which delivers always-on networking via features like LiveUpgrade, Controller Clustering and seamless fail-over. ArubaOS 8 also includes AirMatch, which provides machine learning technology to automatically optimize the performance of a wireless network by tuning the radio frequencies (RF) of the access points.
IoT Ready
The 802.11ax technology also provides unique benefits for IoT devices ranging from dedicated channels in OFDMA which is simultaneous transmission of IoT connections with low latency, to power saving options with Target Wake Time (TWT)* to save battery life.
In addition, the 510 series support an integrated Bluetooth 5 and Zigbee radio, as well as a USB port for maximum flexibility, providing secure and reliable connectivity for IoT devices and for implementing location services.
