HPE Networking Instant On AP-577Product 802.11ax 4.80 Gbit/s access point

SKU CH-4MEZ-39PVC MPN AP-577Product

802.11ax wireless access point delivering 4.80 Gbit/s with dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports and PoE support

  • 11ax standard provides 4.80 Gbit/s wireless speed
  • Dual 2.40 GHz and 5 GHz bands reduce interference
  • 5 Gigabit Ethernet plus Gigabit port enable fast wired links
  • PoE powered device simplifies installation without extra cabling
  • Compact 5.1 x 9.1 x 8.7 inch design fits tight spaces

802.11ax Access Point

The Aruba AP-577 is a wireless access point built for small to mid-size business environments. It delivers a maximum transmission speed of 4.80 Gbit/s using the 802.11ax standard across 2.40 GHz and 5 GHz bands. MIMO and beamforming technologies are included to improve signal quality and coverage.

Connectivity and PoE

This model suits offices needing reliable dual-band connectivity with simplified management via the Instant On platform. Two RJ-45 ports provide Gigabit and 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet links plus a PoE PD port for flexible power options. A USB port and dedicated management port are also available. Buyers requiring higher port density or multi-gigabit uplinks beyond 2.5 Gbit/s should look at other hardware.

4.80 Gbit/s Throughput

The headline wireless transmission speed of 4.80 Gbit/s determines whether this unit meets your bandwidth requirements. Combined with 802.11ax efficiency, it supports dense client environments and high-throughput applications. Verify that your wired backhaul and client devices can utilise this capacity before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the single 2.5 GbE port model or the dual-port version?

The AP-577 ships with two RJ-45 ports, both supporting 2.5 GbE, so there is no single-port variant to choose between.

What does the 4.80 Gbit/s wireless rate mean for real-world throughput?

The 4.80 Gbit/s figure is the maximum PHY rate across both 2.40 GHz and 5 GHz bands using 802.11ax; actual user throughput will be lower due to overhead, interference and client capabilities.

How does the 2.5 GbE uplink affect the 4.80 Gbit/s wireless capacity?

Each of the two RJ-45 ports runs at up to 2.5 GbE, giving a combined wired backhaul of 5 Gbps that exceeds the 4.80 Gbit/s peak wireless rate, so the Ethernet link will not throttle the radio.
