Aruba Instant-On for Small Business
Business Wi-Fi that works as hard as you do


Aruba Instant-On


Cross “fix Wi-Fi” off your to-do list for good

Your business depends on technologies, people, and processes coming together. Your Wi-Fi network is what makes it all work. Get Wi-Fi purpose-built for business that just works—reliably, securely, and remarkably simply, right out of the box. Welcome to Aruba Instant On.


Speed. Simplicity. Security. Get all three.


Aruba Instant On App Screen

Set up your network in a few clicks and manage it from your phone—then let Instant On do the work for you. Automatic updates will keep your network running at top speeds. Your data will always travel along the fastest path. And, there’s no need to buy additional equipment, like a router, ever. Want to capture guest information for your marketing efforts? That’s easy too with custom sign-on portals.

Control your network from the palm of your hand with the Aruba Instant On App on your phone. Monitor and manage up to 25 access points. Keep tabs on who is connecting to which sites and apps. Prioritize important systems like your POS. Set limits to stop bandwidth hogs from slowing things down.

What’s more, you can also control costs, save power, and enhance security by limiting Wi-Fi access to business hours with our PoE scheduling feature.

Aruba Instant On Mesh Wi-Fi uses multiple access points that communicate with one another to blanket your indoor and outdoor spaces with a strong signal. Want to extend your network coverage or strengthen the signal in an area? Just add another access point.

If you’re setting up a new network, a Wi-Fi 6 network is your best option. Wi-Fi 6 delivers consistently fast speeds and strong signals when many devices are competing for bandwidth at the same time. It also allows for power conservation, so device batteries last longer.

Easily separate business and employee traffic from customer traffic. Set hours for network availability for employees and customers and block specific sites or app categories. And, do it all knowing your network is automatically protected by the latest security that defends against external threats like malware attacks or unauthorized users.

 

How your Wi-Fi network works


Various criteria impact the best setup for your space. If you want to extend coverage or want a stronger signal in an area, add more Wi-Fi access points anytime.

See three different setup scenarios.



Light Use: Clinic

When data security is priority one, Aruba Instant On delivers. Set up a guest network and decide if there are apps or site categories you want to block. You can also create multiple networks within your business, separating office admin from POS and billing, for instance, to further secure sensitive information. Know you’re protected with all the security you need—no subscription, licensing fees, or additional equipment needed.
