Aruba 530 Series Campus Access Points
Installation Guide
Aruba 530 Series access points (AP-534 and AP-535) are high-performance, multi-radio wireless devices that can
be deployed in either controller-based (ArubaOS) or controllerless (InstantOS) network environments. These
access points deliver high-performance concurrent 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz 802.11ax Wi-Fi functionality with 4x4
MIMO radios, while also supporting legacy 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless services.
Ethernet ports located on the back of this access point are used to connect the device to the wired networking
infrastructure and to provide power over Ethernet (PoE) to the device (802.3at class 4 or 802.3bt class 5).
In addition to both Wi-Fi radios, these APs also incorporate a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Zigbee radio,
supporting a variety of use-cases and services, such as locationing and IoT.
A variety of mounting scenarios is supported by a range of mount kits (sold separately). Make sure to purchase
the correct mount kit for the intended deployment of the AP.
Hardware Overview
The following sections outline the hardware components of the 530 Series access point.

PoE source(s). In the event that the DC source fails, the access point switches to the PoE source(s). If the 530 Series access point is powered by both PoE ports simultaneously, it can combine power from both sources in either shared or prioritized mode. When Eth0 is prioritized, the access point simultaneously draws a minimal current from the Eth1 source. -
