Features

802.11ax Wi-Fi Certified 6
The HPE Networking Instant On Access Point AP21 features Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) which allows them to handle multiple Wi-Fi 6 capable clients on each channel simultaneously; this improves efficiency by boosting overall capacity and reducing latency. Target Wake Time (TWT) – Ideal for IoT devices that communicate infrequently, TWT establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an AP. This reduces power consumption and can extend the battery life of clients. Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) – Allows the access point to serve multiple clients (Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6) simultaneously.
