Marketing Information:

Aruba 9000 Series Gateways provide high-performance networking, SD-WAN and security functionality in compact and cost-effective form factors. Ideally suited for branch and small campus networks, the 9000 Series Gateways serve a key role within Aruba's SD-Branch solution, which unifies WLAN, LAN, SD-WAN and security for distributed enterprises.

The 9000 Series can be easily configured and managed using Aruba Central, a cloud-based network operations, assurance and security platform. Onsite deployment is accomplished with a simple mobile installer application.

HIGH PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY

For distributed enterprises with increasing performance and bandwidth needs, the 9000 Series is designed with scale and flexibility, and equipped with plenty of horsepower at a competitive price-point.

The 9000 Series provides connectivity for up to 2,048 users or client devices at up to 6 Gbps of firewall throughput.

For enhanced resiliency and high availability, the multiple 9000 Series can be clustered together at each branch.

IOT AND INTEGRATION READY

The 9000 Series includes flexible connectivity options:

• 4xGbE - 9004 / 9004-LTE
• 12xGbE (6xPoE+) - 9012
• USB 3.0 ports
• IoT Radio that supports BLE technologies
• Integrated LTE connectivity - 9004-LTE

The gateway also uses integrated device profiling to improve client visibility, and works with Aruba Central, ClearPass Policy Manager or ClearPass Device Insight to provide advanced user, device and IoT policy management and insights.

SD-WAN DEPLOYMENT

For organizations that are now managing multiple WAN connections, 9000 Series Gateways can be connected to Aruba's SD-WAN fabric right out of the box. SD-WAN is a rich WAN management solution that is used to simplify management of traffic entering and exiting branch sites. Role-based intrusion detection and prevention (IDS/IPS), Dynamic Segmentation, and stateful firewall deliver integrated security requirements. Please refer to the SD-WAN datasheet for more information.

BRANCH AND CAMPUS DEPLOYMENT

9000 Series Gateways can also be re-purposed as Mobility Controllers to provide WLAN and LAN services such as Dynamic Segmentation, stateful firewall and Live Upgrades. In this mode, the 9000 Series cannot simultaneously be used for SD-WAN. For more information, refer to the ArubaOS datasheet.

INTEGRATED LTE

The 9004-LTE is a Gateway with an integrated LTE module that can use high speed LTE as a dedicated or redundant WAN uplink. The LTE operations are managed via Aruba Central.

UNIFIED POLICY ENFORCEMENT

To simplify and secure wired and wireless network access, the 9000 Series Gateways are a pivotal component of Aruba Dynamic Segmentation. Wired and wireless traffic can be tunneled to a Gateway, which then consistently provides policy enforcement based on user role (e.g. guest, contractor, employee), device type, application and network location. Learn about Dynamic Segmentation in this guide.
