Which frequency bands are listed for this antenna?

The provided product data lists 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. It is described as a dual-band antenna, so both bands are explicitly included in the available specifications.

Does the supplied data confirm MIMO support?

Yes. The product category states 4x4 MIMO. That is the only MIMO detail provided, and it should be used as the confirmed technical reference for planning and catalog matching.

Is this antenna intended for indoor use?

Yes. The category labels it as an indoor antenna. No outdoor rating or environmental specification is provided in the supplied data, so indoor deployment is the only confirmed use environment.

What model name is associated with SKU JW017A?

The model listed in the product data is AP-ANT-40. Together with SKU JW017A and the HPE Aruba brand, this is the core identification information available for procurement and item matching.

Product overview

HPE Aruba AP-ANT-40, SKU JW017A, is an indoor dual-band Wi-Fi antenna in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. It is categorized as a 2.4/5 GHz 4x4 MIMO downtilt omni antenna, indicating support for four-by-four MIMO and an omnidirectional indoor design. The available product data identifies it as part of HPE Aruba’s antenna lineup, but does not provide additional electrical, port, or power details. For procurement teams, the key points are the indoor deployment profile, dual-band coverage, and the 4x4 MIMO antenna configuration. Because the provided specifications are limited, this item should be evaluated primarily against antenna band support and MIMO requirements for compatible Aruba wireless deployments. The SKU JW017A and model AP-ANT-40 are the exact identifiers available for ordering and internal catalog matching.
