Check the documentation for 'mesh'. With mesh, your AP (mesh point) can use the 5GHz radio to connect to other APs (mesh portal). Note that the capacity on the 5GHz radio will be reduced, so cabling an AP always is preferred. In cases where you really can't cable, mesh may be a good alternative.

Subject: Aruba AP-207 acting like WiFi repeater
Hello all,
We have Virtual Aruba controller with 108 Aruba APs ( AP-325, AP-207, AP-365). In some rooms in the building there is low WiFi coverage. It is not possible to wiring new Ethernet cable. I'd like to ask is it possible to increase WiFi coverage with additional Aruba AP-207 acting like WiFi repeater?
