Ports

• Three Ethernet ports: Auto-sensing 100Base-T Ethernet ports with RJ-45 connectors. One port provides IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) to supply power to one device.
  One Gigabit Ethernet uplink port: Auto-sensing 1000Base-T Ethernet port with RJ-45 connector.
  • One pair of pass-through ports: Work with Cat5 cabling as well as an analog telephone cable.

Radio and antennas

The HP 417 supports IEEE 802.11b/g/n. It has two internal antennas (4.2 dBi) supporting 2x2 MIMO with two spatial streams at a rate of up to 300 Mbps.

Reset button

The reset button is accessible through a hole on the side panel of the HP 417. To reset the HP 417, insert a paper clip into the reset button hole, and press and quickly release the button. To reset the HP 417 to factory defaults, press and hold the button more than 5 seconds until the status LEDs (Power, Radio, and Uplink) flash, then release.

Powering the HP 417

The HP 417 can be powered by a PoE-enabled switch that provides 10/100 Mbps or 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports.

The HP 417 supports an 802.3af PoE PSE connection to one device on LAN port 3. This feature is dependent on the power source of the HP 417, as follows:

• Supports 802.3af class 1/2/3 PoE Out when the 803.3at (PoE+) power supply mode is used.
  • Supports 802.3af class 1/2 PoE Out when the standard 803.3af power supply mode is used.

Important information to read before installing

Professional installation is required. For indoor installation only. Before 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, and license requirements for the intended country. The end user is responsible for ensuring that installation and use comply with local safety and radio regulations.

To avoid possible bodily injury or equipment damage, read the following safety recommendations before you install an HP 417. The recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.

• Install with six inches or more of clearance around the walljack.
- Keep the chassis clean and dust-free.
• Make sure the ground is dry and flat and anti-slip measures are in place.
- Do not place the AP in a moist area and avoid liquid surrounding the AP.
- Keep the chassis and installation tools away from walkways.

Installation

1. Place the mounting bracket, with the UP arrow pointing up, on the electrical outlet box, and then use two of the supplied mounting screws to secure the bracket to the box.

The two long mounting screws are for a US electrical box. The two short mounting screws are for an EU electrical outlet box.
