More Capacity

The HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points are designed to take advantage of every bit of available spectrum through three dedicated radios, which translates into high speeds, wider channels for multigigabit traffic, and less interference. Supporting up to 160 MHz wide channels, the series delivers up to 4.7 Gbps maximum triband aggregate data rate, using three 2x2 MIMO radios (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz). 


Wi-Fi 7 for Faster Speeds, More Capacity

The Wi-Fi 7 standard (802.11be) extends the capabilities of Wi-Fi 6E, including the use of the 6 GHz band. New capabilities include multilink operation (MLO) for channel aggregation across different bands and failover, and 4096 QAM (4K QAM) modulation for higher peak data rates, and spectrum puncturing to avoid interference or incumbent users of the 6 GHz band.

 

Advantages of 6 GHz

Wi-Fi 7 takes advantage of up to 1200 MHz in the 6 GHz band for higher throughput and improved application performance. HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points support up to seven 160 MHz channels or fourteen 80 MHz channels, enabling improved support of low-latency, bandwidth-hungry applications such as high-definition video and artificial reality/virtual reality applications. Only Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7 capable devices can use the 6 GHz band so there is no interference or slowdowns due to legacy devices.

 

Device class support

HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points with integrated antennas are part of the Low Power Indoor (LPI) device class. This fixed indoor-only class uses lower power levels and does not require an Automated Frequency Coordination service (AFC) to manage incumbent outdoor services, which is required for standard class access points.

 

Global readiness

While the need for more Wi-Fi capacity is recognized across the globe, countries are approaching 6 GHz differently. The HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points are set up to automatically update regulatory rules once Wi-Fi 7 regulations have been approved and certified.

 

Extend the benefits of Wi-Fi 6

The HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points are based on the 802.11be standard, which means that all its efficiency and security enhancements are also available on the 6 GHz band. Wi-Fi 6 features such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), BSS coloring are fully supported on HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 access points as well. Comprehensive Network Security

 

Advantages of OFDMA

This capability allows HPE Aruba Networking access points to handle multiple 802.11be capable clients on each channel simultaneously, regardless of device or traffic type. Channel utilization is optimized by handling each transaction through smaller subcarriers or resource units (RUs), which means that clients are sharing a channel and not competing for airtime and bandwidth. 


Cost-effective, future-proof Wi-Fi 7

Leveraging AI-powered HPE Aruba Networking Central, the HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points is an integral part of the HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi 7 access point portfolio. Built on the same high-performance Wi-Fi 7 platform as the HPE Aruba Networking 730 Series Campus Access Points, the HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points offers a cost-effective solution by omitting high-end features such as 320 MHz channel bandwidth support, dual IoT radios, dual 10 Gbps ports, and MACsec support. 


Wi-Fi optimization

Client optimization

The patented AI-powered HPE Aruba Networking Central ClientMatch technology reduces sticky client issues by steering a client to the access point where it receives the best radio signal. It steers traffic from the noisy 2.4 GHz band to the preferred 5 GHz or 6 GHz band depending on client capabilities. 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. It 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.

 

Reduces interference

Unique HPE Aruba Networking Advanced Cellular Coexistence uses built-in filtering to automatically help minimize the impact of interference from cellular networks, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and commercial small cell or femtocell equipment.

 

Dynamic power save mode

Access points switch into a dynamic power save mode and automatically wake up at a schedule when connectivity demand arises, reducing power demands and saving money in alignment with the organization's sustainability initiatives.

 

Intelligent power monitoring (IPM)

For better insights into energy consumption, HPE Aruba Networking access points continuously monitor and report hardware energy usage. Unlike other vendors' access points, HPE Aruba Networking access points can also be configured to enable or disable capabilities based on available PoE power-ideal when wired switches have exhausted their power budget. Enterprises can deploy Wi-Fi 7 access points and update switching and power at a later if needed based on their actual usage. 


Location-Aware Services

Indoor location shouldn't require guesswork or costly or complex overlay technologies. HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E, and Wi-Fi 7 access points help organizations leverage their wireless investment to deliver indoor location capabilities everywhere.

 

As part of HPE Aruba Networking indoor location solutions, they serve as reference points for client devices and other technologies using fine time measurement.

 

Open Locate, an emerging standard that allows access points to share their location over the air and through cloud-based APIs, enables mobile devices to locate themselves and applications to support network analytics.

 

The HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points support FTM 802.11az for sub-1 meter accuracy, which allows it to participate in a cluster of access points that also support Open Locate. By using anchor access points in that cluster, the HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points can determine its location. 


Access Points as Flexible and Secure IoT Platform

By combining the IoT radio with a zero-trust network framework, the HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points can serve as flexible IoT platforms that bolster network security, provide coverage for a broad range of IoT devices, and helps reduce the need for network overlays just for IoT devices.

 

The HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points includes an integrated Bluetooth 5.4 or 802.15.4 radio for Zigbee support to simplify deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors. There is also a USB host port to provide IoT connectivity to a wider range of devices.

 

These IoT capabilities allow organizations to leverage the access point as an IoT platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay infrastructure and additional IT resources and can accelerate IoT initiatives.

 

In addition, Target Wake Time (TWT) establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an access point. This helps improve client power savings and reduces airtime contention with other clients, which is ideal for IoT.

 

Streamline IoT operations

HPE Aruba Networking Central IoT Operations dashboard unifies visibility of IT and OT infrastructure within the network health dashboard by extending network monitoring and insights to BLE, Zigbee, and other non-IP IoT devices. It helps streamline non-Wi-Fi device onboarding and data collection.

 

AI Client Insights

ML-based classification of all clients and IoT devices through HPE Aruba Networking Central Client Insights uses deep packet inspection to provide additional context and behavioral information that help ensure devices are receiving proper policy enforcement and continuously monitor for rogue devices.

 

Technology Partnerships

A broad ecosystem of technology partners provide interoperability for easier installations and operations, and certified solutions are available to help digital transformation and extend capabilities of network infrastructure.


Security built-in

The HPE Aruba Networking 720 Series Campus Access Points includes security capabilities such as:

Cloud-native network access control (NAC) provided by HPE Aruba Networking Central further simplifies how IT controls network access while providing a frictionless experience for end users. Global policy automation and orchestration enables IT to define and maintain global policies at scale with ease, using UI-driven, intuitive workflows that automatically translate security intent into policy design and map user roles for employees, contractors, guests, and devices to their proper access privileges.

 

Intrusion detection

HPE Aruba Networking Central utilizes the Rogue AP Intrusion Detection Service (RAPIDS) to identify and resolve issues caused by rogue APs and clients. Wired and wireless data are automatically correlated to identify potential threats, thereby strengthening network security and improving incident response processes by reducing false positives.

 

Web content filtering

Web Content Classification (WebCC) classifies websites by content category and rates them by reputation and risk score, enabling IT to block malicious sites to help prevent phishing, DDoS, botnets, and other common attacks. 


Simple and secure access

To improve security and ease of management, IT can centrally configure and automatically enforce role-based policies that define proper access privileges for employees, guests, contractors, and other user groups-no matter where users connect on wired and WLANs. Dynamic segmentation eliminates the time-consuming and error-prone task of managing complex and static VLANs, ACLs, and subnets by dynamically assigning policies and keeping traffic secure and separated. 



 

Seamless handoffs to cellular

Built on the technical foundations of Passpoint® and Wi-Fi Calling, HPE Aruba Networking Air Pass creates a roaming network across the HPE Aruba Networking enterprise customer footprint, extending cellular coverage and enhancing the visitor and subscriber experience to deliver a great experience for your guests while reducing costs and management overhead for DAS.

General regulatory statements

HPE Aruba Networking WLAN access points comply with all regulatory rules that apply in the country they are configured for. In most countries these products may not be allowed to enable all available radios and channels, and various restrictions may apply (RF transmit power levels, radar detection, etc.). HPE Aruba Networking will continue to upgrade the software and regulatory restrictions that apply to these products to help ensure they remain in compliance with the latest regulatory rules in the country of operation. However, this does not imply a promise or commitment to enable all radios in all countries where we ship these products, and/or enabling all deployment scenarios (indoor/outdoor for example) that they can be configured for.

 

Consult your HPE Aruba Networking representative to confirm the latest regulatory status for each product in the country of operation and any anticipated future enhancements or other changes, as well as check the regulatory rules through the host country's regulatory agencies for more.
