•
Air monitor (AM)2 for wireless IDS, rogue detection and containment
• Spectrum analyzer (SA)2, dedicated or hybrid, for identifying sources of RF interference
• Secure enterprise mesh portal or point
For large installations across multiple sites, the Aruba Activate service significantly reduces deployment time by automating device
provisioning, firmware upgrades, and inventory management. With Aruba Activate, the Instant APs are factory
-shipped to any site
and configure themselves when powered up.
