Introduction

The Multi-functional AP211H access point is a highly
versatile, and performance rich access point providing
operational simplicity and a quality user experience. The
AP211H indoor WiFi access point provides
high-performance Gigabit WiFi for in-room applications
such as hotels, classrooms, dormitories, clinics,
remote/home office and more.
The AP211H offers Gigabit ethernet uplink, 3x Gigabit
downlink one of which supports 802.3af PSE to power the
attached device, one pair of RJ-45 pass through ports, and
a USB 2.0 port.
The AP211H ships with a mounting plate to attach the AP
to a single-gang wall-box (most international variations
covered). A desk mount kit can be ordered separately.

LED

The LED displays located on the front of the access point
indicate the following functions:

STATUS: System status (Tri-color LED)

PSE: PoE-PSE status

For the details of the LED status, please refer to the Quick
Start Guide.

Ethernet Ports

The AP211H access point is equipped with four active
Ethernet ports. One is shown in Figure 3 (Eth0) and the
others are shown in Figure 4 (Eth1-Eth3/PSE).

In addition, the AP211H AP has one pair of RJ-45
passive pass through ports, which provide an electrical
connection between the back and the bottom of the
access point.

☆ Note: When the AP211H is powered by an 802.3at or

DC power source, the PoE-out (PoE-PSE) functionality

could be enabled on port Eth3/PSE, supplying (1)

maximum output of 12W while USB is active, or (2)

maximum output of 802.3af PSE while USB is inactive.

USB Interface

The AP211H access point is equipped with a USB 2.0
interface (Type A). When active, the USB port can supply
up to 5V/0.5A power to an attached device.

Reset button

Factory reset. Press reset button for 5s, AP LEDs will
quickly flash for 3s, then AP will restart and restore
factory configurations.

Power

The AP211H access point supports direct DC power adapter
(48V DC nominal, sold separately) and Power over Ethernet
(PoE).
The DC power connector port is located on the side of the
device, as shown in Figure 6.

When both power sources are available, DC power takes
priority over PoE. AP211H supports the power adapter
provided by HAN ONLY.

The PoE-in allows the Eth0 port to draw power from an

802.3at (preferred) source, or an 802.3af (optional)
source.
When powered by an 802.3at or DC power source, the
PoE-out (PoE-PSE) functionality could be enabled on port
Eth3/PSE.

Before You Begin

Refer to the sections below before beginning the
installation process.

Pre-Installation Checklist

Before installing your AP211H access point, be sure that
you have the following items:

• Gigabit Ethernet cable of required length,CAT5 or

CAT6 is preferred.

• One of the following power sources:

 IEEE 802.3af/at compliant Power over Ethernet

(PoE) source.

 HAN AC-DC adapter (sold separately)，Output

voltage DC 48V, output current ≥ 0.6A is

recommended.

• A PC terminal or a notebook

Identifying Specific Installation Locations

The AP211H access point must be secured to an
HAN-approved wall or to a desk mount kit (sold
separately).
The installation position should be as close as possible to
the center of the required coverage area and should be
free from obstructions or obvious sources of interference.

• Minimize the number of obstructions (such as walls)

between the AP and user terminals.

• Electronic equipment or devices (such as microwave

ovens) which may produce radio frequency noise

should be away from the installation position of the AP.

Installing the Access Point

The AP211H can be mounted into a single-gang wall-box
with shipped mounting plate.

_____________________________________________________

_____________________________________________________

Use the steps below to install your AP211H.

1. Begin by removing the existing data wall plate (if
applicable).

2. Make sure that there is an uplink Ethernet cable with
RJ-45 plug in the wall-box. If not, please crimp an RJ-45
plug (not supplied) on the Ethernet cable.

3. Align the mounting holes of the AP211H mounting plate
with mounting holes in your gang box, as shown in Figure 7
and Figure 8. For worldwide single gang outlet box, the
mounting plate has two sets of mounting holes to meet the
individual installation position requirement.

Verifying Post-Installation Connectivity

The integrated LED on the access point can be used to

verify that the AP is receiving power and initializing

successfully.
