AP-303HR hospitality access point
The Aruba AP-303HR is a Wave 2 wireless access point built for hospitality and branch offices. It delivers a maximum concurrent data rate of 867 Mbps on the 5 GHz band and 300 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band. MU-MIMO with two spatial streams allows simultaneous transmission to up to two devices. It suits schools, hotels, clinics and remote workstations needing flexible, low-TCO Wi-Fi.
Wall-box or desk mounting
The unit mounts directly to a standard data wall-box using existing structured cabling. An optional mounting kit converts it for desk-top deployment. No specialised tools are required beyond what a typical structured-cabling installer carries. The main issue arises when the wall-box depth or cable routing leaves insufficient clearance for the AP body, requiring a surface-mount box or relocation.
Dual-band throughput headroom
The 5 GHz radio tops out at 867 Mbps and the 2.4 GHz radio at 300 Mbps, giving comfortable headroom for guest browsing, video streaming and VoIP in typical rooms. Capacity runs out when many clients aggregate high-throughput demand on a single radio, or when legacy 2.4 GHz devices dominate the airtime. Environments needing higher density or greater per-client throughput will exceed what this model provides.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the AP-303HR is delivering the 867 Mbit/s rate on the 5 GHz band after installation?
Check the controller dashboard or the AP's status page for the negotiated PHY rate; it should show 867 Mbps for 5 GHz clients and 300 Mbps for 2.4 GHz clients when connected with 2SS MU-MIMO capable devices.
Does the JZ088A package include the desk-mount kit or only the wall-box bracket?
The unit ships with hardware for standard data wall-box mounting; the desk-mount conversion kit is an optional accessory sold separately.
Which Aruba 303H variant should I choose for a hotel deployment needing 867 Mbit/s 5 GHz throughput?
The AP-303HR (JZ088A) is the hospitality model specified for 867 Mbps at 5 GHz and 300 Mbps at 2.4 GHz with 2 spatial streams and MU-MIMO.
