- IoT‑ready with Bluetooth 5 and Zigbee support featuring built‑in dual concurrent BLE/Zigbee radios:
- Slim design to fit into existing wall plate mounts for the hospitality environments:
- High Performance Wi-Fi 7: Three 2x2 MIMO radios provide comprehensive triband coverage across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz for up to 9 Gbps maximum aggregate data rate. | HPE Networking 720H Series Hospitality Access Points are fully Wi-Fi CERTIFIED | ® | , meeting all requirements for greater efficiency including OFDMA, MU‑MIMO, and target wake time (TWT), reducing power demands and lowering the energy footprint to align with sustainability initiatives. | ClientMatch technology removes sticky client issues by steering a client to the AP where it receives one of the best radio signal and air slice that provides service level agreement-grade performance for latency-sensitive, high-bandwidth, and IoT services. | Multiple wired ports provide low latency, high performance connectivity for a variety of in-room or on-site, internet-enabled devices.
- Dual Platform and Self-driving Capabilities: The HPE Networking 720H Series Hospitality Access Points include the first-ever dual platform AP, the AP-723H model, which supports both HPE Aruba Networking Central and HPE Mist on the same hardware. | Intelligent automation, AI insights, and unified infrastructure management, provided by HPE Aruba Networking Central and HPE Mist, enhance wireless performance and help drive efficient IT operations everywhere–in the cloud, on-premises, or as a service. | Dual platform capabilities provide flexibility and choice as customers can choose the operating system and management platform that best meet their individual needs.
- Simplified Access with Enhanced Security: The HPE Networking 720H Series Hospitality Access Points offer enhanced security with dynamic segmentation to reduce the time-consuming and error-prone task of managing complex and static VLANs, ACLs, and subnets by dynamically assigning policies and keeping traffic secure and separated. | The 720H series improves network protection with WPA3 and Enhanced Open (OWE) for stronger encryption, authentication, and secure credentials for guest access. | To simplify policy enforcement, the 720H series uses the policy enforcement firewall (PEF) to encapsulate all traffic from the AP to the gateway (or mobility controller) for end-to-end encryption and inspection. | For enhanced device assurance, the 720H series includes an installed TPM for secure storage of credentials, keys, and boot code.
- Enhanced IoT Support: HPE Networking 720H Series Hospitality Access Points include an integrated Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 radio for Zigbee support to simplify deploying and managing IoT-based location services, asset tracking services, security solutions, and IoT sensors. | Target wake time (TWT) establishes a schedule for when clients need to communicate with an access point to help improve client power savings and reduce airtime contention with other clients. | Advanced IoT coexistence (AIC) feature uses built-in filtering to allow Wi-Fi and BLE/Zigbee radios to operate at maximum capacity without the impact of interference. | Intelligent power monitoring (IPM) continuously monitors and reports AP energy usage. This feature can be configured to enable or disable capabilities based on available PoE power. | Dual PoE out support allows the AP to directly power IoT devices, mitigating the need for additional power outlets or extra cabling.
