Ethernet Ports
AP330 and AP350 devices have two RJ45 10/100/1000Base-T/TX Ethernet ports.
The AP can receive power through an Ethernet connection to the ETH0 port from PSE (power sourcing
equipment) that is compatible with the 802.3af and 802.3at standards. Aerohive provides several PoE
(power over Ethernet) injectors as accessories that you can order:
•
AH-ACC-INJ-30W-EU
• AH-ACC-INJ-30W-UK
• AH-ACC-INJ-30W-US
• AH-ACC-INJ-30W-AU
• AH-ACC-INJ-30W-IL
If an Aerohive AP is connected to both an AC power source and PSE, the AC power source takes priority. If
the device loses power from that source, it automatically switches to PoE. If the AC power comes back
online, the AP automatically switches back to AC. Each time the AP switches from one power source to
another, it must reboot.
You can configure ETH0 and ETH1 as two individual Ethernet interfaces, combine them into an aggregate
interface to increase throughput, or combine them into a redundant interface to increase reliability. Using
bridging, you can connect the AP330 or AP350 to a wired network or a wired device (such as a security
camera) through these ports. They are compatible with 10/100/1000Base-T/TX and automatically negotiate
half- and full-duplex connections with the connecting device. They are autosensing and adjust to
straight-through and crossover Ethernet cables automatically. For more information, see
"Aggregate and
Redundant Interfaces" on page 112 .
The pin assignments in the Ethernet ports follow the TIA/EIA-568-B standard (see Figure 3 on page 111 ) and
accept standard cat3, cat5, cat5e, or cat6 Ethernet cable. Because the ports have autosensing
capabilities, the wiring termination in the cable can be either straight-through or crossover.
Console Port
Through the RJ45 console port, you can make a serial connection between your management system and
the AP. The management station from which you connect to the device must have a VT100 emulation
program, such as Tera Term Pro
©
(a free terminal emulator) or Hilgraeve Hyperterminal
®
(provided with
Windows
®
operating systems from Windows 95 to Windows XP). The serial connection settings are:
• Bits per second: 9600
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: none
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: none
The pin-to-signal mapping of the RJ45 console port is described in "RJ45 Console Port Pin Assignments" on
page 113 .
USB port The Type-A USB 2.0 port (backward compatible with USB1.1) allows you to connect
a wireless 3G/4G USB modem to serve as a backup WAN connection. For locations
where an Ethernet connection to the WAN is not possible, you can use the USB
modem as the primary (and only) interface to the WAN.
For specific information about the modems supported for AP330 and AP350
devices, and configuration settings, refer to HiveManager Help.
Device lock slot,
security cavity, and
security hole
You can physically secure the AP by attaching a lock and cable (such as a
Kensington
®
notebook lock) to the device lock slot. For details, see "Locking the
AP330 and AP350" on page 70
