Aruba JZ029A High-Performance 802.11ac Wave 2 Enterprise Access Point

The Aruba JZ029A is a high-performance enterprise access point engineered to deliver fast, reliable, and secure Wi-Fi in demanding business environments. Featuring 802.11ac Wave 2 technology with 4×4 MU-MIMO, it provides exceptional throughput and efficiency, making it ideal for high-density scenarios such as offices, schools, hospitals, and large public venues.

Designed with a multi-gigabit SmartRate Ethernet uplink, the JZ029A ensures your network can scale as wireless performance requirements grow. Aruba’s advanced RF optimization technologies automatically adjust channel and power parameters, guaranteeing stable, consistent performance even in challenging radio environments.

An integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio supports IoT devices, asset tracking, and location-based services. With flexible deployment modes—including controller-based and Instant—the JZ029A is suitable for networks of all sizes. Enterprise-grade security and PoE+ support make installation straightforward while maintaining strong protection for sensitive environments.
