    I need to add 10 APS to a Meeting Facility Each Room will handle about 200 guests MAX.  SO i would need at least 1000 IP's available.

    We are currently using 10 AP 335 units.   I would like to know should i be using a 500 series or a 600 series unit to replace these.

    Any help would be great I need to upgrade this system ASAP

    This is something that you should best discuss with your Aruba Partner. They can advise the best products for your situation.

    If the 10x AP335 now provide the performance that you would expect, you may find an equivalent AP5xx or AP6xx for that. But you did not mention if you are looking for additional scale, speed, coverage, features, spectrum, etc. It's just easier to speak with your Aruba partner and get their advice for an optimal solution within your requirements and budget.

    To add something to Hermans post, in general it is very good to speak to an Aruba Partner.

    I would lead with the 6xx Series (655 for instance) to get the benefit of an additional Spectrum (6GHz).
    But there are more things to consider than just the Model. 655 needs more PoE Power, at least Class 4 with IPM enabled.
    as you can see it is not a "take this" decision, it is something which should be planned based on frameconditions.
