AP-LAR-1 Use Case
AP-LAR-1 Protects Rural 5G Macro Cell Sites from Lightning Damage
In remote telecom deployments, the AP-LAR-1 Aruba Outdoor 2.0 GHz–6.0 GHz Lightning Arrester safeguards 5G macro cell antennas mounted on exposed towers. By instantly diverting high-voltage surges away from sensitive RF equipment, it cuts lightning-induced failures by up to 80%, delivers 99.9% service availability and slashes maintenance costs for carriers.
AP-LAR-1 Ensures Uninterrupted Enterprise Rooftop Wi-Fi Connectivity
For large campuses and hospitality properties, rooftop Aruba outdoor APs face frequent storm hits. Integrating the AP-LAR-1 Lightning Arrester on every 2.0 GHz–6.0 GHz antenna feed line blocks transient surges, preventing AP damage and network outages. The result is continuous high-density Wi-Fi, reduced unplanned downtime and a lower total cost of ownership.
AP-LAR-1 Secures Smart-City Public Safety and Surveillance Links
Municipal smart-city deployments rely on reliable outdoor wireless backhaul for surveillance cameras and emergency radios. The AP-LAR-1 Lightning Arrester installed inline on 2.0 GHz–6.0 GHz radio links protects against direct strikes and induced surges. This robust surge protection maintains critical communications 24/7, enhances public-safety resilience and extends hardware lifespan.
