Flotek Announces Strategic Partnership with Aruba to Deliver High-Performance Networking Solutions for Small Businesses

We’re thrilled to announce a powerful new partnership between and Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, bringing cutting-edge networking technology to both our enterprise and small-to-medium business (SMB) customers.

Who is Aruba?

Aruba, a subsidiary of Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), is a global leader in next-generation network solutions. Known for their innovation in AI-powered networking, Aruba has become the go-to choice for organisations looking to modernise their infrastructure.

Their technology is already trusted by major institutions—including NHS Wales, local councils, and schools—many of whom have made the switch from legacy providers like Cisco to Aruba for its superior performance, reliability, and intelligent automation.

Why This Partnership Matters

At Flotek, we’ve already seen the impact Aruba has had on our enterprise clients. Now, after successful testing of Aruba Instant On—Aruba’s SMB-focused product line—we’re excited to roll out these powerful solutions to our SMB customers.

Here’s what’s coming:

  • WiFi 6 Access Points: Faster, more reliable wireless for high-density environments.
  • 10GB Network Switches: Stackable, high-speed switches with 10GB connectivity.
  • Aruba Gateway (Coming Soon!): An advanced firewall with built-in AI threat detection, application visibility, and Zero Trust Security—perfect for growing businesses that need enterprise-grade protection.

Smarter Networks with AI

Aruba’s AI-powered features help identify and resolve network issues before they impact users. From automated traffic optimisation to intelligent security monitoring, your network becomes more resilient and easier to manage—whether you’re running a small office or a multi-site enterprise.

One Portal, Total Control

With Aruba’s cloud-based management portal, our team can now manage access points, switches, and soon the Aruba Gateway—all from one place. This unified approach simplifies deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting, saving time and boosting performance.

Built on a Rock-Solid Foundation

Combined with our 25-year guarantee through our partnership with CommScope, we’re not just delivering fast and intelligent networking—we’re building it on a foundation you can trust. This guarantee specifically covers the underlying network cabling and fibre infrastructure—the backbone of any high-performance network.

Whether it’s copper or fibre, this physical layer is critical to ensuring your switches, access points, and gateways operate at peak performance. With CommScope’s globally trusted technology and our expert installation, you get long-term reliability and peace of mind—especially important for public sector clients and growing businesses that can’t afford downtime.

Enterprise-Grade Tech for Everyone

Aruba’s solutions scale beautifully—from small offices to large campuses. For our enterprise clients, we’re also supporting advanced technologies like:

  • Private 5G: Ultra-reliable, low-latency wireless for mission-critical applications.
  • Zigbee Integration: Ideal for IoT devices like smart lighting, sensors, and building automation.

Now, with Aruba, we can support both SMBs and large enterprises with one trusted vendor—simplifying procurement, support, and scalability.

Backed by Industry-Leading Support

As a registered Aruba partner, Flotek receives direct support on large deployments, ensuring smooth rollouts and expert guidance. Whether it’s a school, council, or business campus, we’ve got the tools and the team to deliver.
