Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Wireless Access Points vs. HPE Aruba Networks Wireless WAN

One of best use cases for using OmniAccess Wire Access Point is where we have dense no. of users as client associated capacity is very good. Also one of the use case is when administrator wants different PSK for each user for authentication. OmniAccess WAP supports in better way.

Aruba Networks Wireless WAN is an excellent solution for small to medium-sized implementation, especially on-premise. The ability to centrally manage all policy-based access requirements for both registered users as well as guests using the portal is effortless. This is backed up by good documentation which is available and excellent vendor support (HP).

• No of Interfaces
• must have a variety in terms of MIMO
• better throughput

• Licensing is slightly complicated and not bundled, separate costs for cloud controller is a no-no.
• UI needs an uplift.
• Coverage is good but can be better.

The unified network cloud webpage offers many visibilities for the entire network. From routers, SDWAN and SDWAN edges to check and monitor each interface for failover. Aruba usually provide credit for learning, and this will help give the admin more visibility to use and manage the entire network from the single point of cloud based web Gui

Have used Cisco Meraki access point earlier having management on cloud and is on license (subscription basis). But Alcatel OmniAccess Points have management on cloud, on premise as well which means to say flexibility in terms of management. We had one requirement where we number of user is large which is going to connect on access point but Cisco Meraki only supports 200 users per radio whereas OmniAccess point have better client associated capacity with 524 per radio.

We used Xirrus wifi before we moved to Aruba. Xirrus is a great niche brand that has been sold to other companies a few times in the life we used the products. This negatively impacted the product availability in our country, local support, and amount of implementation partners. Due to Aruba their broad product range, availability in the market, and knowledge with implementation partners we feel that we can build upon their products not only for a product cycle but for the decade to come.
