First enterprise-grade Wi-Fi 6E solution
For enterprises who will need more wireless capacity and wider channels to grow, Aruba 630 Series APs take advantage of the 6 GHz band via three dedicated radios.
High performance, more capacity
The 630 Series APs are designed to take advantage of the 6 GHz band, which translates into far greater speeds, wider channels for multi-gigabit traffic, and less interference. It delivers 3.9 Gbps maximum aggregate data rates Tri-radio, 2x2:2 MIMO in all three bands (3.9Gbps aggregate peak).
Less interference
630 Series APs include Aruba’s unique ultra tri-band filtering, which enables enterprises to take advantage of the high end of 5 GHz band with the lower end of 6 GHz without experiencing signal interference or performance degradation.
Ultimate efficiency
The 630 Series APs are based on the 802.11ax standard (PDF), which means that all its efficiency and security enhancements are also available on the 6 GHz band. Features include Orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA), Multi-User MIMO as well as other capabilities built into Aruba’s Wi-Fi 6 access points.
IoT and location ready
The 630 Series includes an integrated Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 radio for Zigbee support to simplify deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors.

Power sources and power consumption
- The AP supports direct DC power and Power over Ethernet (POE) on port E0 and/or E1
- When both DC and POE power sources are available, DC power takes priority over POE
- When POE power is supplied to both Ethernet ports, either port can be configured as the active power source
- Inactive/standby POE power sources can be used to deliver hitless failover
- Power sources are sold separately; see the 630 Series Ordering Guide for details
- When powered by DC or 802.3bt (class 5) POE, the AP will operate without restrictions
- When powered by 802.3at (class 4) POE with the IPM feature disabled, the AP will disable the USB port
- Operating the AP with an 802.3af (class 3 or lower) POE source is not supported
- With IPM enabled, the AP will start up in unrestricted mode but may dynamically apply restrictions depending on the available power budget and actual consumption. The feature restrictions and order in which these get applied are configurable
- Maximum (worst-case) power consumption (without / with a USB device attached):
- DC powered: 20.7W / 26.4W
- POE powered: 23.8W / 29.4W
- This assumes that up to 5W is supplied to the attached USB device
- Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in idle mode: 8.7W / 14.2W (DC) or 11.7W / 17.2W (POE)
- Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in deep-sleep mode: 1.1W (DC) or 1.9W (POE)
