HPE Aruba Networking AP-503-RW - Wi-Fi 6 Campus Access Point

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax)Dual-Band 2x2Bluetooth 5 IoTPoE 802.3af

The HPE Aruba Networking AP-503-RW (R8M98A) is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) campus access point that delivers up to 1.49GBps of combined 2x2 throughput for offices, schools, clinics and retail spaces that want reliable, cloud-managed wireless without overspending. Identified by part number R8M98A, it adds Bluetooth 5 for IoT and location services, OFDMA and MU-MIMO efficiency, and management through HPE Aruba Networking Central. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.

Compatibility & Power

The AP-503-RW is powered by PoE Class 3 (802.3af) from a compatible PoE switch or injector (not included), and its low power draw keeps it easy to deploy on existing switching. It is a dual-band 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi 6 unit - it does not use the 6 GHz band, and all clients connect on 2.4 or 5 GHz. Ongoing management uses HPE Aruba Networking Central (cloud) or an Aruba gateway/controller; a Central subscription is required for cloud operation. Built-in Bluetooth 5 supports IoT and location, with an optional expansion radio for 802.15.4/Zigbee.

Best For

✓Cost-conscious offices, schools and clinics

✓Reliable Wi-Fi 6 coverage in mid-density areas

✓Estates standardising on HPE Aruba Central

✓Sites needing Bluetooth/IoT and location services

✓Upgrades from Wi-Fi 5 on existing 802.3af PoE

✓Ceiling or wall mounting in campus environments

Key Features

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) Efficiency

Dual-band 2x2 radios deliver up to 1.49GBps combined with OFDMA and bidirectional MU-MIMO, so more clients share the air smoothly than on Wi-Fi 5.

Cloud-Managed with Aruba Central

AI-powered HPE Aruba Networking Central handles configuration, monitoring and optimisation from one dashboard across all of your sites.

Built-in Bluetooth 5 & IoT

An integrated Bluetooth 5 radio supports asset tracking, location services and IoT, with an optional expansion radio for 802.15.4/Zigbee.

Efficient 802.3af PoE

Runs on standard PoE Class 3, so it drops onto existing switching without a power upgrade - simple, low-cost campus deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the AP-503 need an Aruba Central subscription?

For cloud management, yes - it is designed around HPE Aruba Networking Central, which needs a subscription. Alternatively it can run behind an Aruba gateway/controller, so factor the licensing into your deployment plan.

What power does the AP-503-RW require?

Standard PoE Class 3 (802.3af) from a PoE switch or injector, which is not included. Because it uses ordinary 802.3af, it usually drops straight onto existing switching without a PoE upgrade.

Does the AP-503 support the 6 GHz band or Wi-Fi 7?

No. It is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) access point using 2.4 and 5 GHz. For 6 GHz or Wi-Fi 7 look at a newer tri-band model, but for mainstream coverage the AP-503 is an efficient, affordable choice.

Is the AP-503 suitable for IoT and location services?

Yes. It has an integrated Bluetooth 5 radio for location and IoT use cases, and supports an optional expansion radio for 802.15.4/Zigbee where broader IoT connectivity is needed.

Singular Expert Insight

The AP-503 is Aruba's value campus access point: it brings dependable Wi-Fi 6, OFDMA and built-in Bluetooth to sites that do not need 6 GHz, and its 802.3af power keeps installation simple on existing switching. The trade-off is the ongoing Aruba Central subscription, so it suits organisations already committed to the Aruba ecosystem. Pair it with a standard PoE switch from our network switches, and browse the wider Access Points range if you need Wi-Fi 7 or 6 GHz capacity.

Buyer's Guide
