LAN Port
The LAN port is used to connect the device to your Local Area Network
(LAN), typically through an Ethernet switch.
Power over
Ethernet
The AT-AP500 Access Point supports Power over Ethernet (PoE+) on the
LAN port. The unit is a PoE+ class 4 powered device with a maximum
power consumption of 16 watts. When the port is connected to a PoE+
Ethernet switch, the unit receives its power over the network cable that
carries the network traffic. If you use the PoE+ feature, you do not need to
use the AC/DC power adapter that has to be purchased separately.
Connector Type The LAN port has an eight-pin RJ45 connector. The port uses four pins at
10 or 100 Mbps and all eight pins at 1000 Mbps. The pin assignments are
listed in “LAN Port” on page 39.
Speed The LAN port can operate at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps. The speed is set
automatically with Auto-Negotiation. You cannot disable Auto-Negotiation
on the port.
Note
The LAN port should be connected to a network device that also
adjusts its speed with Auto-Negotiation. If the network device does
not support Auto-Negotiation, the LAN port operates at 10 Mbps,
which may reduce network performance.
Duplex Mode The LAN port can operate in either half- or full-duplex mode at 10 or 100
Mbps, and full-duplex mode at 1000 Mbps. The port is IEEE 802.3u-
compliant and uses Auto-Negotiation to set the duplex mode. (You cannot
disable Auto-Negotiation on the port.)
Note
The LAN port should be connected to a network device that also
sets its duplex mode with Auto-Negotiation. If the network device
does not support Auto-Negotiation, the LAN port operates at half-
duplex mode. This may result in a duplex mode mismatch if the
network device is operating at full-duplex.
Maximum
Distance
The LAN port has a maximum operating distance of 100 meters (328 feet).
Cable
Requirements
The cable requirements for the LAN port are listed in Table 2 on page 20.
Review Draft 2-1-16
Chapter 1: Overview

Automatic MDIX
Detection
The 10/100/1000 Mbps twisted-pair port is IEEE 802.3ab compliant and
features automatic MDIX detection when operating at 10 or 100 Mbps.
(Automatic MDIX detection does not apply to 1000 Mbps.) This feature
automatically configures the port to MDI or MDI-X, depending on the
wiring configuration of the port on the Ethernet switch.
You may not disable automatic MDIX detection. For automatic MDIX
detection to work properly, it must also be present on the Ethernet switch.
The LAN port defaults to MDIX if it is connected to a network device that
does not support automatic MDIX detection.
Port Pinouts Refer to Table 9 on page 39 for the port pinouts of the LAN port when it is
operating at 10 or 100 Mbps in the MDI configuration and Table 10 on
page 40 for the MDI-X configuration. Refer to Table 11 on page 40 for the
port pinouts when the port is operating at 1000 Mbps.

2. Add one or more access points to the account by entering the access
point name and serial number. Refer to the AlliedView Cloud User’s
Guide.
3. If not done already, power on the access point: the access point
automatically registers with the AlliedView Cloud once a name and
serial number is assigned, and the unit is powered up.
4. Refer to the AlliedView Cloud User’s Guide to add the access point to
the network and configure the access point.

Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Caution
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate this equipment. E80
Caution
Avertissement de la FCC: Les changements ou modifications non
expressément approuvés par la partie responsable de la conformité
pourraient annuler l'autorité de l'utilisateur à utiliser cet équipement.
E80
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
For operation within 5150-5250MHz / 5470-5725MHz frequency range,
it is restricted to indoor environment.The band from 5600-5650MHz will
be disabled by the software during the manufacturing and cannot be
changed by the end user. This device meets all the other requirements
specified in Part 15E, Section 15.407 of the FCC Rules.
Rdiaion Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and
operated with minimum distance 26cm between the radiator & your body.

Industry Canada Statement
This device complies with RSS-247 of the Industry Canada Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-247 d'Industrie Canada
applicable aux appareils radio exempts de licence. Son fonctionnement
est sujet aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) le dispositif ne doit pas
produire de brouillage préjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter tout
brouillage reçu, y compris un brouillage susceptible de provoquer un
fonctionnement indésirable.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la Classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003
du Canada.
Caution:
(i) the device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor
use to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile
satellite systems;
(ii) the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the bands 5250-
5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limit; and
(iii) the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-
5825 MHz shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limits specified for point-to-point
and non point-to-point operation as appropriate.
(iv) Users should also be advised that high-power radars are allocated as
primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-
5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage
to LE-LAN devices.
Avertissement:
Le guide d’utilisation des dispositifs pour réseaux locaux doit inclure des
instructions précises sur les restrictions susmentionnées, notamment:
(i) les dispositifs fonctionnant dans la bande 5 150-5 250 MHz sont
réservés uniquement pour une utilisation à l’intérieur afin de réduire les
risques de brouillage préjudiciable aux systèmes de satellites mobiles
utilisant les mêmes canaux;
Review Draft 3-24-16

(ii) le gain maximal d’antenne permis pour les dispositifs utilisant les
bandes 5 250-5 350 MHz et 5 470-5 725 MHz doit se conformer à la limite
de p.i.r.e.;
(iii) le gain maximal d’antenne permis (pour les dispositifs utilisant la
bande 5 725-5 825 MHz) doit se conformer à la limite de p.i.r.e. spécifiée
pour l’exploitation point à point et non point à point, selon le cas.
(iv) De plus, les utilisateurs devraient aussi être avisés que les utilisateurs
de radars de haute puissance sont désignés utilisateurs principaux (c.-à-
d., qu’ils ont la priorité) pour les bandes 5 250-5 350 MHz et 5 650-5 850
MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer du brouillage et/ou des
dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL.
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and
operated with minimum distance 26cm between the radiator & your body.
Déclaration d'exposition aux radiations:
Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d'exposition aux rayonnements
IC établies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être
installé et utilisé avec un minimum de 26cm de distance entre la source
de rayonnement et votre corps.
