R4G99A is HPE Aruba Networking 518 Series delivers ruggedized APs for connectivity across the harshest environments. It is weatherproof and temperature hardened, this series can handle temperatures ranging from -40˚C to +65˚C, including full solar loading. All electrical interfaces include industrial strength surge protection. It provides fast wired connections with 2.5 Gbps Ethernet and 1 Gbps Ethernet ports. 518 Series can serve as IoT platforms that bolster network security and provide coverage for a range of IoT devices without the need for network overlays. The target wake time (TWT) improves battery life of IoT devices. Series offer enhanced security with Dynamic Segmentation to remove the time-consuming and error-prone task of managing complex and static VLANs, ACLs, and subnets by dynamically assigning policies and keeping traffic protected and separated. It simplifies policy enforcement by using the PEF to encapsulate all traffic from the Access Point to the gateway (or mobility controller) for end-to-end encryption and inspection.
For enhanced device assurance, the access points include an installed Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for protected storage of credentials, keys, and boot code.
