Which Aruba solution uses Bluetooth Low Energy to precisely track the location of mobile users through their mobile devices?

Question

Options

• AAruba Asset Tags
• BAruba APs in Air Monitor (AM) mode
• CAruba Beacons
• DAruba APs in Spectrum Monitor (SM) mode

• A
  7% (3)
• B
  4% (2)
• C
  71% (32)
• D
  18% (8)

Explanation

Aruba Beacons are small BLE transmitters deployed throughout a facility that interact with BLE-enabled mobile devices, enabling precise indoor location tracking of users via Aruba's Meridian platform - making C correct.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (Asset Tags): Asset Tags use BLE too, but they track physical assets (equipment, inventory) - not mobile users/devices.
• B (APs in Air Monitor mode): AM mode dedicates APs to WLAN security monitoring (rogue detection, IDS) - not BLE-based user location.
• D (APs in Spectrum Monitor mode): SM mode analyzes RF spectrum interference across frequency bands - completely unrelated to location tracking.

Memory tip: Think "Beacons beacon you in" - like a lighthouse guiding ships, Aruba Beacons guide location services to pinpoint where you are inside a building. Asset Tags track things, Beacons track people.
