Indoor Wave 2 Access Point

The HPE Networking Instant On AP11 R3J21A is a dual-radio indoor access point built for small businesses, medical offices and home networks that need reliable Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 4 coverage. It ships with a 12 V power adapter and supports PoE 802.3af class 3 for flexible installation.

867 Mbps 5 GHz and 300 Mbps 2.4 GHz

Simultaneous dual-band operation uses 2x2 MIMO on each radio, delivering up to 867 Mbps on 5 GHz with Multi-User MIMO and up to 300 Mbps on 2.4 GHz. The single Gigabit Ethernet uplink caps wired backhaul at 1 Gbps, so aggregate wireless throughput cannot exceed that link.

Plenum-rated, fanless design

The unit carries a UL 2043 plenum rating and meets EN 60601-1-1 and EN 60601-1-2 for medical environments. With no moving parts it runs silently, drawing power either from the included adapter or a PoE switch within the 802.3af class 3 budget.

Questions about this item

Will the AP11's Gigabit Ethernet uplink negotiate correctly with my existing 802.3af PoE switch?

Yes, the single uplink port supports 802.3af PoE-in (class 3) and will auto-negotiate link speed with any standard Ethernet switch.

How can I confirm the AP11 is broadcasting both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios after installation?

Open the Aruba Instant On mobile app; the dashboard shows each radio's status, channel, and connected client count in real time.

Does the R3J21A bundle include the 12 V DC power adapter, or must I order it separately?

The R3J21A is the power-bundle SKU and ships with the 12 V DC adapter in the box; the R2W95A variant is the one sold without it.
