ARUBA 370EX SERIES
HAZARDOUS LOCATION
ACCESS POINTS
High performance Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2)
for hazardous locations and harsh outdoor
environments
In outdoor and environmentally challenging
locations such as oil rigs, mining facilities, and
industrial plants, networks need to be protected
from extreme temperatures, ammable gas,
vapor, and dust concentrations. With Class 1
Division 2 the Aruba 370EX Series Access Points
deliver hardened multi-gigabit Wi-Fi to hazardous
locations.
The 370EX series provides a maximum aggregate data rate
of over 2 Gbps (2.4GHz: 300Mbps; 5GHz: 1,733 Mbps) as well
as multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), 4 spatial streams (4SS), and
optional 160MHz channel bandwidth (VHT160) to quickly
add performance and capacity to existing or new wireless
networks.
KEY FEATURES
• Deliver gigabit Wi-Fi to outdoor and extreme
environments.
• 2 Gbps of maximum throughput
• WPA3 and Enhanced Open security
• Patented ClientMatch technology resolves sticky
client issues and optimizes Wave 2 performance
• AI-powered AirMatch automates RF optimization
• IoT-ready with integrated Bluetooth Low Energy
(BLE)
• Participates in Aruba’s Dynamic Segmentation
solution
CERTIFIED FOR EXTREME WEATHER RESILIENCY
Purpose-built to survive in the harshest environments, the
370EX Series have undergone extensive certication testing
(Class 1 Division 2 and IP66/67) to demonstrate the ability to
withstand exposure to high and low temperature extremes,
windspeeds up to 165 mph, and tolerate persistent moisture,
precipitation, and dust and salt sprays for extended periods
of time. All electrical interfaces include industrial strength
surge protection.
MU-MIMO AWARE CLIENT OPTIMIZATION
The 370EX Series includes Aruba’s patented ClientMatch
technology to eliminate sticky client issues while optimizing
802.11ac Wave 2 performance. These APs continuously
gather session performance metrics to steer mobile devices
to the best-available AP – even while users roam. With MU-
MIMO awareness, ClientMatch can group MU-MIMO capable
devices together to increase network capacity and eciency.
ClientMatch also participates in Aruba’s AI-powered Mobility
solution.
IOT-READY
Like all Aruba Wi-Fi 6 APs, the 370EX Series includes an
integrated Bluetooth Low Energy radio to simplif y the
deployment and management of location services, asset
tracking services, security solutions and IoT sensors.
This allows organizations to leverage the 360 Series as
an IoT platform, which eliminates the need for an overlay
infrastructure and additional IT resources.
ARUBA SECURE INFRASTRUCTURE
The Aruba 370EX Series includes components of Aruba’s
360 Secure Fabric to help protect user authentication and
wireless trac. Select capabilities include:
WPA3 and Enhanced Open
Support for stronger encryption and authentication is
provided via the latest version of WPA for enterprise
protected networks.

ARUBA 370EX SERIES HAZARDOUS LOCATION ACCESS POINTS
Enhanced Open oers seamless new protection for users
connecting to open networks where each session is
automatically encrypted to protect user passwords and data
on guest networks.
WPA 2-MPSK
MPSK enables simpler passkey management for WPA2
devices – should the Wi-Fi password on one device or device
type change, no additional changes are needed for other
devices. Requires ClearPass Policy Manager.
VPN Tunnels
In Remote AP (RAP) and IAP-VPN deployments, the 370EX
Series can be used to establish a secure SSL/IPSec VPN
tunnel to a Mobility Controller that is acting as a VPN
concentrator.
Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
For enhanced device assurance, all Aruba APs have an
installed TPM for secure storage of credentials and keys, and
boot code.
SIMPLE AND SECURE ACCESS
To simplify policy enforcement, the Aruba 370EX Series
uses Aruba’s policy enforcement rewall (PEF) feature
to encapsulate all trac from the AP to the Mobility
Controller (or Gateway) for end-to-end encryption and
inspection. Policies are applied based on user role, device
type, applications, and location. This reduces the manual
conguration of SSIDs, VL ANs and ACLs. PEF also serves as
the underlying technology for Aruba Dynamic Segmentation.
FLEXIBLE OPERATION AND MANAGEMENT
A unique feature of Aruba APs is the ability to operate in
either controllerless (Instant) or controller-based mode.
Controller-less (Instant) mode
In controllerless mode, one AP serves as a virtual controller
for the entire network. Learn more about Instant mode in
this technology brief.
Mobility Controller mode
For optimized network performance, roaming and security,
APs tunnel all trac to a mobility controller for centrally
managed trac forwarding and segmentation, data
encryption, and policy enforcement. Learn more in the
ArubaOS datasheet.
Management options
Available management solutions include Aruba Central
(coming soon) or Aruba AirWave – a multi-vendor on-
premises management solution.
For large installations across multiple sites, APs can be
factory-shipped and can be activated with Zero Touch
Provisioning. This reduces deployment time, centralizes
conguration, and helps manage inventory.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Zero Touch Provisioning
APs can be factory-shipped and zero-touch provisioned
through Aruba Central or AirWave using a cloud-based
service to reduce deployment time, centralize conguration,
and manage inventory.
Advanced Cellular Coexistence (ACC)
Minimizes inter ference from 3G/4G LTE cellular networks,
distributed antenna systems (DAS), and commercial small cell
or femtocell equipment
Hardened, industrial design
Extends the temperature range capabilities of indoor access
points for environments that lack heating and cooling. It also
provides sealed connector interfaces to protect against dust
and moisture
