ARUBA RAP-100 SERIES
REMOTE ACCESS POINTS
High-performance wireless and wired
networking for SMBs, branch oces
and teleworkers
The multifunctional Aruba RAP-100 series delivers
secure 802.11n wireless and wired networking to
SMBs and access to corporate resources from
branch and home oces.
With unmatched deployment exibility, the RAP-100 series
can operate in Aruba Instant mode controlled by the
AirWave management platform or in controller-managed
mode where all network ser vices are centralized by Aruba
Mobility Controllers.
In Aruba Instant mode, trac is locally bridged but it
still provides the exibility of secure tunneling to
Mobility Controllers.
To eliminate client stickiness, the RAP-100 series includes
integrated ClientMatch technology, which continuously
gathers session performance metrics and uses this data to
every device to the best AP and radio on the WLAN, even
while users roam and RF conditions change.
The RAP-100 series also oers 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-100 can
join an Aruba Instant WL AN cluster. Simply install additional
RAP-100s 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.
With a wireless data rate up to 300 Mbps in the 2.4-GHz
and 5-GHz radio bands, the RAP-100 series has one
10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet uplink, one 10/100BASE-T
local Ethernet port and one USB port to connect to 3G and
4G networks.
When operating in Aruba Instant mode, the cloud-based
Aruba Activate service dramatically reduces RAP-100 series
deployment time by performing zero-touch provisioning,
rmware upgrades and inventory management. With
Aruba Activate, R AP-100s are factory-shipped to remote
deployment sites and obtain their congurations
automatically when powered up.
ADVANCED FEATURES
• ClientMatch technology eliminates sticky clients by
continuously gathering session performance metrics
and using this information to steer them to the best AP
and radio.
• ARM technology delivers best-in-class RF management,
including automatic transmit power and channel control
with auto coverage-hole correction.
• Zero-touch provisioning as well as automated rmware
upgrades and inventory management with the cloud-
based Aruba Activate service.
• Spectrum analyzer remotely scans the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz
radio bands to identify sources of RF interference.
• Security:
- With an OpenDNS service subscription, Aruba
Instant RAPs delivers integrated web ltering, malware
and botnet protection to every device connected to
the WLAN
- Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure
storage of credentials and keys
- SecureJack-capable for secure tunneling of wired
Ethernet trac

- VPN conguration functionality enables the Instant
AP to create a single VPN tunnel to an Aruba Mobility
Controller in the data center. The Mobility Controller
acts solely as a VPN end-point and does not supply the
Instant AP with any conguration.
