HPE JW797A Aruba AP-315 Wireless Access Point

HPE JW797A Aruba AP-315 802.11ac Dual-Radio Access Point

Overview

The HPE JW797A is an indoor wireless access point designed for network engineers deploying Wi-Fi in enterprise offices, campus spaces or high-density zones. It supports dual-band operation (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz) and features Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) with 4×4 spatial streams on 5 GHz and 2×2 on 2.4 GHz, enabling efficient simultaneous service of multiple clients. With an integrated antenna design and a single Gigabit Ethernet uplink port, it fits standard ceiling or wall mounting and is suitable for distributed access, branch office or hotspot deployments. It can operate in controller-based or controller-less (Instant) mode and integrates Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) beaconing for location and IoT services.
The JW797A suits environments where mobility, device density and performance matter—such as offices, labs or shared work-spaces—and integrates into existing structured cabling and PoE infrastructures for streamlined deployment.
