How to install HPE AP-575EX

Plan your deployment with a focus on coverage and reliability in outdoor and hazardous zones. Identify high-traffic areas and locations with the best line of sight to minimize interference and maximize client throughput. Map a path for cabling and ensure that power and network connections will be stable in exposed conditions.

Mount the AP-575EX on a sturdy surface—such as a wall or pole—using the supplied mounting hardware. Ensure that the mounting point provides adequate clearance for airflow and heat dissipation and that the enclosure remains accessible for future maintenance while still protecting against environmental elements.

Connect the device to a PoE-enabled network switch or injector. Verify power delivery and confirm that the AP boots correctly. If you are deploying in a hazardous location, follow all site-specific safety protocols and local regulatory requirements for equipment installation in such environments.

Configure the AP through your centralized management system (e.g., Aruba Central) or the on‑prem controller. Create SSIDs, define security policies (including WPA3 where supported), assign VLANs as needed, and establish guest access or IoT segmentation aligned with your network architecture. Leverage auto-configuration features where available to simplify mass deployments.

Perform post‑deployment validation by testing coverage across the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, verifying client roaming, and measuring latency and throughput in real-world conditions. Schedule firmware updates and health checks to maintain performance and security over time, especially in remote outdoor sites where access may be limited.
