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.

Highlights

  • Dual-band Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 4 for broad device support
  • 867 Mbps on 5 GHz with MU-MIMO for multi-user throughput
  • PoE or 12 V DC power with adapter included
  • Medical-grade safety certifications for sensitive environments
  • Compact plenum-rated design for flexible ceiling or wall mounting

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.
