Overview

Ultra-high-speed performance for high-density small businesses

Perfect for gaming, boutique hotels, tech start-ups and professional offices

The rise of the remote and hybrid workplace has placed increased pressure on business networks. Existing Wi-Fi infrastructure is struggling to support the explosion of devices and bandwidth hungry applications — all contributing to spotty video calls and sluggish download speeds.

The HPE Networking Instant On AP25, a 4x4 Wi-Fi 6 access point, is designed to meet the increasing volume of connected devices. Delivering superior performance, coverage, and speed at a competitive price, the AP25 is the perfect access point for small and growing businesses.

The Wi-Fi Certified 6TM AP25 delivers faster Wi-Fi speeds, greater capacity, and reduced latency between access points and devices for a superior Wi-Fi experience. AP25 improves efficiency and reduces congestion for networks with many connected devices, making it ideal for high-density environments. And with 4x the capacity of 802.11ac access points, the AP25 provides exceptional user experience, allowing businesses to serve more customers with higher speed and less congestion.

Features of the AP25 include orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA), multi-user MIMO and target wake time (TWT). With up to 4 spatial streams (4SS) and 160MHz channel bandwidth (HE160), the AP25 provides groundbreaking wireless capabilities for businesses looking to boost performance and future-proof their networks.

Features

Next-Generation 802.11ax Wi-Fi Features

AP25 is a Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6TM (Wi-Fi 6) access point that brings higher capacity, efficiency, and performance to small and growing businesses with dense deployments. With a maximum aggregate data rate of 5.3 Gbps, AP25 access points deliver the speed and reliability small businesses need.

2.5g Ethernet Uplink Port And 160mhz Client Bandwidth Support

Availability of 2.5G uplink port and wider channel bandwidth delivers faster Wi-Fi speeds for activities like high-def video streaming and gaming.

160mhz Client Bandwidth Support

With 160MHz bandwidth support in 11ax, HE160 mode delivers higher performance with 160MHz supported clients. The mesh performance can be doubled with the 160MHz bandwidth support on 5GHz backhaul.

Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)

Allows access points (APs) to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6-capable clients on each channel simultaneously — regardless of device or traffic type. This improves efficiency by boosting overall capacity while reducing latency.

Target Wake Time (TWT)

Ideal for devices that communicate infrequently, TWT establishes a schedule for clients to communicate with an AP. This helps reduce power consumption, extending battery life.

Multiuser, Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MU-MIMO)

AP25 supports MIMO, allowing service to multiple clients (Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6) at the same time.

1024-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (1024-QAM)

Enables a 25% data increase over 256 QAM, improving throughput to access points and devices.

Trusted Platform Module (TPM)

All HPE Networking Instant On access points have an installed TPM for secure storage of credentials, keys, and boot codes.
