The Aruba AP-65 is a dual radio (dual-band concurrent 802.11a plus b/g) high performance indoor wireless access point capable of supporting multiple functions including WLAN access, air monitoring/wireless intrusion detection and prevention, and secure enterprise mesh across the 2.4-2.5 GHz and 5 GHz RF spectrums.

The AP-65 access point supports diverse deployment options, delivering secure user-centric network services and applications for high-performance enterprise and campus environments, branch offices and retail spaces, as well as deployments over public and private networks as a Remote/Mobile AP. Centrally managed from an Aruba mobility controller, the AP- 65 empowers the network administrator with unparalleled control over services, security and deployment models. The AP-65 supports dual, integral, high-performance omnidirectional multi-band antennas. Its discretely packaged and lightweight design allows it to blend into the enterprise or retail environment with ease, and makes it appealing to the enterprise user on the move as a Mobile AP.
