The leader in secure, reliable, manageable and scalable distributed enterprise networks.

Mobility Controllers

Aruba's family of mobility controllers are purpose-built network infrastructure devices, designed from the ground up to provide secure, scalable solutions for campus wireless LAN, wired security, branch office deployments, and remote networking.

Running the ArubaOS operating system, the controllers support a number of different software applications - including per-user stateful firewalls, VPN client termination, voice aware services, and wireless intrusion prevention in a single appliance.

Mobility controllers can secure wired networks using the same identity-based, high security scheme used for the wireless LAN, delivering a seamless user experience regardless of the connection medium. All controllers feature multi-processor architectures with separate control, network, and encryption processors. Platforms are available that can scale from the large campus to the small branch or store, providing the performance needed at every level.
