HPE Aruba Distributor in India

Yes, we are an authorized HPE Aruba channel partner. All products are sourced through authorized HPE India distribution with full warranty registration.

Aruba Instant On is the SMB line — simple, cloud-managed via mobile app, no controller needed, no licenses. Ideal for 5–100 user offices. Aruba CX is enterprise — full CLI access, advanced L3 routing, BGP, VRF, EVPN-VXLAN, designed for large campuses, data centers, and high-availability environments managed via Aruba Central or AirWave.

For Aruba 500/600 series APs in cloud-managed mode, yes — they require Aruba Central Foundation license (per-AP, annual). Standalone/controller-managed deployments use AOS firmware without Central licensing. Aruba Instant On APs do NOT require Central — they use a free mobile app/web console.

Both are top-tier cloud-managed enterprise. Aruba has stronger roots in high-density Wi-Fi (university stadiums, conference centers) and deeper switching feature set with CX. Meraki has a more polished dashboard and integrated security. For pure Wi-Fi performance under stress, Aruba often edges out. For unified branch management with security, Meraki is easier.

Aruba access points: typically lifetime warranty (with limited free advance replacement). CX switches: 1-year base, extendable. Instant On: 2-year warranty. ClearPass and software products carry support subscription rather than warranty.

Yes — ClearPass for guest provisioning, BYOD onboarding, certificate-based EAP-TLS, and role-based access control. Available as professional services. Common in BFSI, healthcare, and government deployments.

Yes, most Aruba CX switches, 500/600 series APs, and Instant On products are GeM-listed. We provide quotations to government buyers within 24 hours.
