1, 2, 3—new AP! Upgrade your Wi-Fi hardware

HPE202302220155_layer_4_3_800_0_72_RGB.jpgNetworked overloaded? Upcycle aging network hardware and get credit toward the purchase of select new HPE Aruba Networking AP-6xx Series Wi-Fi 6E hardware. 

Food. Water. Shelter. Wi-Fi.

The hierarchy of needs has evolved, and reliable Wi-Fi connectivity is a no longer a nice-to-have, but rather a vital necessity.  We now equate WiFi to air—if there isn’t any nearby, people aren't going to stay very long.

But with the explosive growth in IoT devices, latency-sensitive applications, and a complex range of work-from-home, in-office, and hybrid work options, can your legacy network keep up?  Since the early days of wireless LAN communications we’ve seen device communication speeds go from 54Mbps to well over 5Gbps and some of those aging access points just can’t provide the throughput requirements needed today.

Enter Wi-Fi 6E…the answer to your bandwidth concerns! 

Wi-Fi 6E expands on the existing Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard and allows access to a new 6 GHz band. With Wi-Fi 6E, enterprises can support new use cases that demand multi-gigabit speeds like high-definition video. With Wi-Fi 6E, you can future-proof your investment and better support existing and emerging use cases like:

  • Multi-gigabit Wi-Fi capacity for large venues
  • Mission-critical applications with dedicated Wi-Fi 6E devices
  • Low-latency Wi-Fi calling
  • Next-gen experiences with AR/VR

And now, for a limited time, you can receive trade-up credit for your existing legacy HPE Aruba Networking AP-1xx, AP-2xx, and AP-3xx Series APs when you purchase select new HPE Aruba Networking AP-6xx Series Wi-Fi 6E hardware!

Simplify network operations while keeping everything secure with next-generation APs from HPE Aruba Networking – and earn a rebate while you’re at it.
