Aruba Tri Radio 4x4 Wi-Fi 7 Internal Antennas Campus Access Point

The Aruba S1G85A is a tri-radio campus access point that delivers Wi-Fi 7 performance across the 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz bands. Each radio operates with a 4x4 MIMO design, so classrooms, lecture halls, or open-plan offices can connect hundreds of devices without a slowdown.

Internal antennas are tuned for ceiling installation, making it easy to place the unit where signal coverage is strongest while keeping the hardware out of sight. Peak antenna gain reaches 6.0 dBi, giving reliable coverage for dense client areas such as libraries, conference centers, or residence halls.

Two Ethernet ports accept up to 10 Gbps links, which helps backhaul busy wireless traffic to the wired network without becoming a bottleneck. You can power the access point through standard DC or by using Class 6 Power over Ethernet, with a maximum draw of 51 W, so cabling stays straightforward when you are adding units to existing switch infrastructure.

Built-in Bluetooth Low Energy and Zigbee radios allow the same device to anchor location services, environmental sensors, or other IoT endpoints, reducing the need for separate gateways. This simplifies deployments in smart classrooms, healthcare facilities, and modern office spaces.

Security meets enterprise requirements thanks to WPA3 support and an onboard TPM that protects stored credentials and keys. The hardware operates safely up to 122 °F, and Aruba backs the unit with a limited lifetime warranty for long-term peace of mind.
