CAUTION
Installation Guide
The Aruba 360 Series outdoor wireless access points support IEEE 802.11ac standards for highperformance WLAN, and are equipped with two radios, which provide network access and monitor
the network simultaneously. Multiple-in, Multiple-out (MIMO) technology allows these access points
to deliver high-performance 802.11n 2.4 GHz and 802.11ac 5 GHz functionality, while also supporting
802.11a/b/g wireless services.
The AP-365 and AP-367 access points work in conjunction with an Aruba controller, while the IAP-365
and IAP-367 access points can be configured using a built-in virtual controller.
The 360 Series outdoor wireless access points provide the following capabilities:
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless access point
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless air monitor
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac spectrum monitor
Compatible with IEEE 802.3af PoE
Centralized management configuration and upgrade
Integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Radio
This device must be professionally installed and serviced by a trained ACMP or similar Aruba-certified
technician. Aruba access points are classified as radio transmission devices, and are subject to government
regulations of the host country. The network administrator(s) is/are responsible for ensuring that configuration
and operation of this equipment is in compliance with their country’s regulations. For complete list of
approved channels in your country of the AP-365 and AP-367 access points, refer to the Aruba Downloadable

Ethernet Ports
360 Series access point is equipped with one 10/100/1000Base-T auto-sensing MDI/MDX Ethernet
port. This port supports wired-network connectivity, in addition to Power over Ethernet (PoE) from
IEEE 802.3af compliant power sources.This device accepts 57V DC (802.3af) nominal as a standard
powered device (PD) from power sourcing equipment, including PoE midspan injector or a PoEsourcing network infrastructure.
The port has an RJ-45 female connectors with the pin-out shown in Figure 2.

Grounding Point
Always remember to protect the access point by installing grounding lines. The ground connection
must be complete before connecting power to the access point enclosure.
Before You Begin
FCC Statement: Improper termination of access points installed in the United States configured to non-US
model controllers will be in violation of the FCC grant of equipment authorization. Any such willful or
intentional violation may result in a requirement by the FCC for immediate termination of operation and may
be subject to forfeiture (47 CFR 1.80).
