Made in Hamburg/Germany The Cisco to Aruba Adapter “Arubadaptor QC” is the practical hardware solution for continuing to use existing Cisco ceiling and wall mounts while installing new Aruba Access Points without drilling, patching or painting. The adapter bridges the mechanical differences between both manufacturers and enables fast upgrades in offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, retail spaces and logistics environments. Instead of dismantling old mounts and installing new ones, the Arubadaptor QC is placed onto the existing Cisco mount, after which the Aruba AP can be mounted directly – cleanly, securely and usually without downtime. This saves project time, costs and unnecessary coordination, as dust, noise and additional trades are largely avoided. Manufactured from durable stainless steel and Made in Hamburg/Germany, the Cisco to Aruba Adapter “Arubadaptor QC” is designed for longevity, serviceability and high repeatability. The hole pattern supports typical Cisco mounts starting from the AP1040 series (approx. 2009), while the Aruba side supports the 500, 600 and 700 series. All ports (PoE/Ethernet/Console) remain freely accessible, serial/MAC labels stay visible, and installation takes only a few minutes with the included screws. The result is a mechanically clean, audit-proof migration path from Cisco to Aruba – without compromising stability or appearance. Details Use Cases and Added Value In many existing buildings, dozens or hundreds of Cisco mounts are already installed, labelled and integrated into cable routes. Installing new mounts means dismantling, patching, painting, dust protection, coordination with users and potentially downtime. The Arubadaptor QC eliminates this effort by reusing the existing base plate so that only the access point itself needs to be replaced. This is particularly advantageous in sensitive environments – such as operating areas, classrooms, hotel corridors, retail spaces during opening hours, or dust-critical production zones. The consistent reuse of existing mounts saves time, reduces risks and protects budgets, making migrations more predictable and cost-effective. Material and Workmanship The adapter is made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel with precisely manufactured hole patterns and deburred edges. The material withstands frequent installation/removal, resists everyday mechanical influences (e.g., vibration from HVAC systems or tension on patch cables) and maintains dimensional stability. Its surface blends discreetly into ceiling and wall environments while remaining robust enough for technical rooms, storage areas or high-traffic corridors. The result is a long-lasting component that can still be installed without play even after years, providing a reliable foundation for service-friendly AP locations. Compatibility and Future-Proofing The Arubadaptor QC is designed for common Cisco mounts (from AP1040, approx. 2009). This covers both legacy and current installations. In everyday project work, this means mixed environments can be migrated step by step, without needing to redesign each mounting point. Thanks to the mechanical focus, you remain independent of software versions or controller generations – the mechanical interface remains stable, protecting your investment long-term and simplifying future phased migrations. Ports, Labels and Service Access A common frustration with universal mounts is obstructed ports or hidden labels. With the Arubadaptor QC, special care was taken to ensure that Ethernet/PoE and console ports are easily accessible and that serial/MAC labels remain visible. Inventory, asset management, warranty handling and device replacement can therefore be done without removing the mount. This saves measurable time, especially in large rollouts and routine inspections, and ensures clean documentation at every installation point. Installation Process – Step by Step The installation follows a clear sequence: Remove the existing Cisco AP Insert the Arubadaptor QC tool-less into the existing Cisco mounting plate Mount the Aruba AP tool-less The Arubadaptor QC can be installed on site without tools. This workflow has proven itself in large rollouts, minimizes error sources and enables teams to upgrade many mounting points reliably within a single day. The result is a repeatable, efficient process that balances cleanliness, quality and speed. Aesthetics and Cable Management Especially in visible areas, a clean appearance matters. The adapter itself visually recedes into the background, resulting in a uniform and professional look. The combination of stainless-steel aesthetics and precise geometry ensures that the upgrade appears professional and integrates seamlessly into ceilings and walls. Cost Efficiency and Sustainability The greatest benefit of this solution lies in reusing existing infrastructure. No painting or patching, no new drill holes, fewer newly routed cables, less disposal work: this reduces direct costs and time, protects building structures and lowers environmental impact. Upgrades can also be carried out in phases without blocking large areas at once. This flexibility, combined with durable stainless steel, makes the Arubadaptor QC a sustainable choice across multiple device generations. Scope of Delivery and Logistics The delivery includes the Arubadaptor QC and the required screws. The Arubadaptor QC can be shipped to you or directly to your deployment site. On request, we can also ship in a white-label variant. Typical Application Areas Office and administrative buildings with Cisco legacy infrastructure and Aruba target environments Education (schools, universities) where low-noise, low-dust work is crucial Healthcare (clinics, practices) where hygiene and minimal downtime are essential Hospitality & retail, where appearance and availability are key Logistics/industry, where downtime is costly and installation time is limited These examples show that the adapter delivers measurable benefits in diverse environments and is therefore highly versatile.
