2.3 AP-104
This section introduces the Aruba AP-104 Wireless Access Point (AP) with FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validation.
It describes the purpose of the AP, its physical attributes, and its interfaces.
The Aruba AP-104 is a high-performance 802.11n (2x2:2) MIMO, dual-radio (concurrent 802.11a/n +
b/g/n) indoor wireless access point capable of delivering combined wireless data rates of up to 900Mbps.
This multi-function access point provides wireless LAN access, air monitoring, and wireless intrusion
detection and prevention over the 2.4-2.5GHz and 5GHz RF spectrum. The access points work in
conjunction with Aruba Mobility Controllers to deliver high-speed, secure user-centric network services in
education, enterprise, finance, government, healthcare, and retail applications.
2.3.1 Physical Description
The Aruba AP-104 Access Point is a multi-chip standalone cryptographic module consisting of hardware
and software, all contained in a hard plastic case. The module contains an 802.11 a/b/g/n transceiver and
supports external antennas through 4 x dual-band (RP-SMA) antenna interfaces for supporting external
antennas.
The plastic case physically encloses the complete set of hardware and software components and represents
the cryptographic boundary of the module.
The Access Point configuration validated during the cryptographic module testing included:
