Aerohive
Ethernet and Console Ports
There are three ports on the HiveAP 340: two RJ-45 10/100/1000Base-T/TX Ethernet ports and an RJ-45 console port.
The pin assignments in the PoE (Power over Ethernet) Ethernet ports follow the TIA/EIA-568-B standard (see
Figure 2
). The ports accept standard types of Ethernet cable—cat3, cat5, cat5e, or cat6—and can receive power
over this cable from power sourcing equipment (PSE) that is 802.3af-compatible. If you use cat5, cat5e, or cat6
cables, the HiveAP 340 can also support 802.3at-compliant PSE. Such equipment can be embedded in a switch or
router, or it can come from purpose-built devices that inject power into the Ethernet line en route to the HiveAP.
Because the PoE ports have autosensing capabilities, the wiring termination in the Ethernet cable can be either
straight-through or cross-over.

MDI = Medium dependent interface for straight-through connections
MDI-X = Medium dependent interface for cross-over (X) connections
The PoE ports are auto-sensing and can automatically adjust to transmit and receive data over straight-through or cross-over
Ethernet connections. Likewise, they can automatically adjust to 802.3af Alternative A and B power delivery methods. Furthermore,
when the Alternative A method is used, the ports automatically allow for polarity reversals depending on their role as either MDI or
MDI-X. In 802.3at, the 1/2 and 3/6 wire pairs connect to DC source 1 and 4/5 and 7/8 pairs to DC source 2 in PSE. Although the
exact polarity depends on the PSE design, the HiveAP 340 Ethernet ports can support all possible options.
T568B -terminated Ethernet Cable
with an RJ-45 Connector
T568A and T568B are two standard
wiring termination schemes. Note that
the only difference between them is
that the white/green + solid green pair
of wires and the white/ solid
orange pair are reversed.
For straight-through Ethernet
cables—using either the T568A or
T568B standard—the eight wires
terminate at the same pins on each
end.
For cross-over Ethernet cables, the
wires terminate at one end according
to the T568A standard and at the
other according to T568B.
