The HPE Aruba Networking AP-577EX (US) is a purpose-built Wi-Fi 6 hazardous-location outdoor access point, engineered to deliver robust and secure wireless coverage in environments where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dust may be present. Certified for hazardous locations (such as Class I, Division 2 / Zone 2), this AP provides vital connectivity for industrial operations, remote workforce access, and critical monitoring systems.
Equipped with dual radios supporting 2×2 and 4×4 MIMO, the AP-577EX (US) enhances spectral efficiency, improves throughput, and supports a high density of connected devices. The integrated directional antennas focus RF energy to deliver precise coverage, making this access point ideal for outdoor corridors, perimeter security zones, processing areas, and long-range point-to-region coverage requirements.
The rugged, weather-rated enclosure is designed to withstand extreme temperatures, dust, moisture, wind, and UV exposure, ensuring long-term reliability even in the harshest conditions. Aruba?s advanced RF management technologies ? including Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) and ClientMatch? ? dynamically optimize radio performance, channel selection, and client steering for consistently strong wireless experiences.
Security is engineered into every layer with WPA3 encryption, secure boot, hardware TPM, and role-based policies, protecting both device access and sensitive network traffic. The AP integrates seamlessly with Aruba Central or controller-based operations, enabling centralized monitoring, orchestration, analytics, and lifecycle management across distributed outdoor infrastructure.
Ideal for power utilities, petrochemical sites, mining operations, manufacturing plants, and critical infrastructure suppliers, the AP-577EX (US) delivers industrial-grade wireless performance with safety-compliant assurance.
