Intended to be used with a PoE Injector or Power Adapter (both sold separately).

Review: IMPORTANT information about this device and Aruba - All, I had a very painful process with Aruba on this WAP. I cannot suggest purchasing any Aruba AP from a company that's not a reseller. If you're ordering this IAP-325 for your business, just know that Aruba 100% will not support this AP since it wasn't bought from a Reseller. This AP wouldn't activate to Aruba Central in my case. Additionally, most of the 32x model APs are EOL/EOS by 2026. End of Sale was 12/2021. The AP-303 or AP-535 is the way to go depending on your budget.
Review: Best WiFi AP I've used. - Super easy to get up and running. The throughput is great and allows you to use a pre-existing DHCP server or an internal one. I live in an apartment complex with 75+ wifi APs and this adapts to the extreme interference very well. Paired with a good router your network will be perfect, but if you only need wifi then you can hook this directly up to a modem and institute your own firewall policies internally. Unless all your equipment is Aruba and you need a ton of AP's, then you really won't get any benefit from the features in the models above this one. It's the best bang for your buck.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much do the following cost: (1) an external power source or Power Adapter and (2) a mounting kit?**
A: The AP comes with grid mounts. If you want other options they range from between $50-$150 and there are a few most of which are available on amazon. As far as power there are 2 options, a POE+ injector/switch or AC power cube. The injectors run from $20-$100+, any standards complaint injector will work. The power cubes are $10-$50 and again you just need to have one that supports 12vdc,2.5amp,pin positive. You don’t have to buy Aruba/HPE branded ones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best WiFi AP I've used.
*by S***R on March 21, 2017*

Super easy to get up and running. The throughput is great and allows you to use a pre-existing DHCP server or an internal one. I live in an apartment complex with 75+ wifi APs and this adapts to the extreme interference very well.

### ⭐⭐ Poor range
*by J***J on May 8, 2017*

For how much I paid for these (we have 5 in our house), I would have expected far better range. Maybe we're morons and set them up wrong but we did get a professional enterprise network consultant come and set everything up for us. But the range is really poor. 15-20 meters at best, and this is with setting them up in optimal locations. With walls in between, each wall cuts down a good 5 meters or so. Wifi access from the street so we could open certain automated gates and doors? Not a chance. The devices enabled switching between access points pretty decently, I'll give it that, though not super fast. I probably wouldn't get this again if I were to do it all over, maybe I should have done what everyone else did and gotten an Eero or Lux system. For the price, I really can't give much more than 1 star for the performance, though the switching did work so I'll bump it up a star. I'll update this if my experience changes.
