Other Interfaces
• One HPE SmartRate port (RJ-45, maximum negotiated speed 2.5 Gbps)
- Auto-sensing link speed (100/1000/2500BASE-T) and MDI/MDX
- 2.5 Gbps speed complies with NBase-T and 802.3bz specifications
- PoE-PD: 48Vdc (nominal) 802.3at PoE
• One 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet network interface (RJ-45)
- Auto-sensing link speed and MDI/MDX
- PoE-PD: 48Vdc (nominal) 802.3at PoE
• Link aggregation (LACP) support between both network ports for redundancy and increased capacity
• DC power interface, accepts 1.35/3.5-mm center-positive circular plug with 9.5-mm length
• USB 2.0 host interface (Type A connector)
• Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio
- Up to 4 dBm transmit power (class 2) and -91 dBm receive sensitivity
-
Integrated vertically polarized omnidirectional antenna with roughly 30 degrees downtilt and peak gain of 4.9 dBi
(AP-345) or 3.1 dBi (AP-344)
• Visual indicators (tri-color LEDs): for System and Radio status
• Reset button: factory reset, LED mode control (normal/off)
• Serial console interface (proprietary, USB physical jack)
• Kensington security slot
Power Sources and Consumption
• The AP supports direct DC power and Power over Ethernet (PoE)
• When both power sources are available, DC power takes priority over PoE
• Power sources are sold separately
• Direct DC source: 48Vdc nominal, +/- 5%
• Power over Ethernet (PoE): 48Vdc (nominal) 802.3af/802.3at compliant source
• When powered by a direct DC power source, the AP will operate without restrictions
• When powered by PoE and with the IPM feature enabled, the AP will start up in unrestricted mode, but it may apply
restrictions depending on the PoE budget and actual power. What IPM restrictions to apply, and in what order, is
programmable.
• When powered by PoE with the IPM feature disabled, the AP will apply some fixed restrictions:
- The USB interface is disabled when using an 802.3at PoE power source
- The USB interface and second Ethernet port (E1 if E0 is used, otherwise E0) are disabled, and both radios are
restricted to 2x2 operation (AP in dual-radio mode) or 1x1 operation (AP in dual-5 GHz mode) when using an
802.3af PoE power source
• Maximum (worst-case) power consumption:
- DC powered: 20.0W (AP in dual-radio mode), 22.8W (AP in dual-5 GHz mode)
- PoE powered (802.3at): 21.9W (AP in dual-radio mode), 25.1W (AP in dual-5 GHz mode)
- PoE powered (802.3af): 13.5W
- All numbers above are without an external USB device connected. When sourcing the full 5W power budget to
such a device, the incremental (worst-case) power consumption for the AP is up to 6W (DC) or 6.6W (PoE)
• Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in idle mode: 11W (DC or PoE)
Mounting
• The AP ships with two (black) mounting clips to attach to a 9/16-inch or 15/16-inch flat T-bar drop-tile ceiling
• Several optional mount kits are available to attach the AP to a variety of surfaces; see the Ordering Information section
