Aruba access points models and part numbers

Press Add next to a part number to put it in your basket. Where a subscription or support option goes with the hardware, you choose it in the same step and it goes into your basket with the hardware. Part numbers come from the vendor; we confirm each line, quantity and term when we quote.

HPE Aruba Networking Central: Foundation or Advanced

HPE: "HPE Aruba Networking Central provides two primary subscription tiers: Foundation and Advanced."

• Foundation: HPE says "AI Search is available with the Foundation subscription" and "For UXI and Central integration, a Foundation subscription is required."
• Advanced: HPE: "HPE Aruba Networking Central Advanced subscription is required to enable AI features such as Copilot. To activate Copilot, at least 90% of all devices in the account must be on an Advanced subscription."

Existing Classic Central subscriptions carry over: HPE says "the existing Foundation or Advanced subscription in Classic Central is applicable to HPE Aruba Networking Central". When you add an access point, the configurator offers both tiers; we confirm the tier, term and part numbers at quote.

UK part numbers

HPE builds its access points for each country's radio rules, and the regulatory domain is part of the part number: HPE's price list, for example, lists the dual-platform AP-723H as AP723H-RW alongside US, EG and ID versions. Add the model you want and we give the right UK part number for each access point, and the mounting brackets it needs, in your quote.

Hospitality, remote and outdoor access points

• Hospitality (H models) mount over a wall box and add wired ports for in-room TVs, phones or desks: the AP-725H (Wi-Fi 7, 1+4 Ethernet), AP-605H (Wi-Fi 6E) and AP-505H and AP-503H (Wi-Fi 6).
• Remote (R models) are desktop access points that extend the corporate network to a home office or small branch: the AP-605R and AP-503R.
• Outdoor and hazardous locations: the AP-765 (Wi-Fi 7), 670 series (Wi-Fi 6E) and 580, 570 and 560 series (Wi-Fi 6), each with EX versions for hazardous areas, and the hardened AP-518 for "warehouses, industrial freezers, or stadiums" (HPE).

The AP-723H is "a dual-platform access point that supports both HPE Aruba Networking Central and HPE Mist" (HPE Mist Supported Hardware); its HPE Mist part numbers are on HPE Mist access points.

Switches, small sites and older models

• Switching: pair the access points with HPE Aruba Networking CX switches, managed in the same Central account, or any multigigabit PoE switch on managed PoE switches.
• Small sites: for a single office managed from a phone app, HPE Networking Instant On (formerly Aruba Instant On) is simpler; see Instant On.
• Older models: HPE's end-of-life list shows the 300-series and 200-series access points (for example AP-303, ended 31 Jan 2025) as end of sale. Send us your current models and we will map them to current ones.

HPE's support portal says an updated warranty policy for legacy HPE Aruba Networking products takes effect on 15 Jan 2027; warranty terms for each model are confirmed at quote.
