Ports
•
Ethernet port:
connector. The port supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) 802.3af.
•
Console port:
Console Ports in the MSM3xx / MSM4xx Access Points Management and
Configuration Guide. Note that there is no need to use the Console port for
initial configuration. The CLI Reference Guide is available online.
Warning: Never connect the Console port to an Ethernet switch or
PoE power source. This may damage the AP. Connect it only to other
serial ports using an RJ-45 to Serial Port adapter.
Auto-sensing 10/100/1000 BaseT Ethernet port with RJ-45
Standard console (serial) port with RJ-45 connector. See
Radios and antennas
Each AP features two radios, providing 802.11n/a on Radio 1 and
802.11n/a/b/g on Radio 2. For maximum performance, the E-MSM460 and
E-MSM466 both support 3x3 MIMO three-spatial-stream 802.11n. The
E-MSM430 only supports 2x3 MIMO two-spatial-stream 802.11n.
The E-MSM430 and the E-MSM460 each contain two 3-element, dual-band,
MIMO antennas. The E-MSM466 includes no integrated antennas. It provides
three antenna connectors for each radio, color-coded red, green, and blue.
When connecting the antenna cables, be sure to respect the color-coding. See
E-MSM466 available antennas on page 8.
Reset button
The Reset button is accessible via a hole on the bottom of the AP, labeled as 5
on page 1. Insert a paper clip into the Reset button hole. Press and quickly
release the button to reset the AP. To reset the AP to factory defaults, press the
button until the status lights blink three times, then release.
Important information to read before installing
Warning: PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION REQUIRED. For indoor
installation only. Prior to installing or using the AP, consult with a
professional installer trained in RF installation and knowledgeable in local
regulations including building and wiring codes, safety, channel, power,
indoor/outdoor restrictions, and license requirements for the intended
country. It is the responsibility of the end user to ensure that installation
and use comply with local safety and radio regulations.
Surge protection and grounding: When connecting antennas installed
outdoors to the E-MSM466, make sure that proper lightning surge protection
and grounding precautions are taken according to local electrical code. Failure
to do so may result in personal injury, fire, equipment damage, or a voided
warranty. The HP hardware warranty provides no protection against damage
caused by static discharge or a lightning strike.
Cabling: You must use the appropriate cables, and where applicable, surge
protection, for your given region. Cat 5e (or better) cabling is required.
Plenum installation: The AP can be installed in a plenum. The AP is suitable
for use in environmental air space in accordance with Section 300-22(C) of the
National Electrical Code, and Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1. It should be installed in a similar
orientation as in a ceiling installation. However, it is left to a qualified installer
to determine how to install/secure the AP in a plenum in an appropriate and
safe manner. Plenum-rated cables and attachment hardware must be used.
Country of use: In some regions, you are prompted to select the country of
use during setup. After the country has been set, the AP will automatically limit
the available wireless channels, ensuring compliant operation in the selected
country. Entering the incorrect country may result in illegal operation and may
cause harmful interference to other systems.
Safety: Take note of the following safety information during installation.
•
If your network covers an area served by more than one power distribution
system, make sure all safety grounds are securely interconnected.
•
Network cables may occasionally be subject to hazardous transient
voltages (caused by lightning or disturbances in the electrical power grid).
•
Handle exposed metal components of the network with caution.
•
The AP is powered-on when connected to a PoE power source.
•
The AP and all interconnected equipment must be installed indoors within
the same building (except for outdoor antennas), including all
PoE-powered network connections, as described by Environment A of the
IEEE 802.3af standard.
See also Other regulatory information on page 8.
Powering the AP
The AP can be powered by:
•
A 10/100 or 10/100/1000 PoE-enabled switch. Various PoE-enabled
switches are available from HP.
•
An HP 1-Port Power Injector (J9407A).

Caution:
use only a gigabit-compatible power injector. Although 10/100 PoE-enabled
switches are compatible, PoE injectors designed for 10/100 networks only are
NOT compatible with the AP.
If the AP will be powered by a user-supplied PoE power injector,
Installation
The AP can be mounted on a wall, a wall-mounted electrical box, or a suspended
ceiling. The AP Bracket is mounted first and then the AP is attached to the
bracket. The AP Bracket is two-sided: The AP is installed on the side with the UP
arrow. The other side with the T-bar clip screw holes faces the wall or T-bar.
3. If necessary, drill a hole for the Ethernet cable in the marked cutout area
of the AP Bracket. Alternatively, you can feed the Ethernet cable from
above and through the AP cable channel.
4. Insert the anchors and tap them flush with the wall surface.
5. Pull the Ethernet cable through the hole in the wall and the AP Bracket.
6. Screw the AP Bracket to the wall. Continue with Attach the AP on page 4.
Mounting on an electrical box
1. Disconnect power and take any other needed security precautions.
2. Remove the electrical box cover and any contents.
3. Pull the Ethernet cable down into the box and then through the hole in the
AP Bracket.
4. Hold the AP Bracket against the box respecting the UP arrow, and attach
the AP Bracket to the box using appropriate countersunk screws.
Continue with Attach the AP on page 4.
Mounting on a suspended ceiling
The AP can be mounted on a suspended ceiling using the supplied T-bar clips.
Two sets of T-bar clips are provided, a 12.5 mm set for recessed tiles and a 4.5
mm set for flush-mount tiles.
Mounting directly on a wall
1. Respecting the UP arrow on the AP Bracket, hold it against the wall at the
2. Drill two holes for the wall anchors, typically 4.7 mm (3/16 inch) in
desired position. Mark two holes for the screws (wall anchors) and one
hole in the cutout area of the AP Bracket for the Ethernet cable.
