LAN Port
The AT-TQ5403e access point has one LAN port to connect to your Local
Area Network (LAN), typically through an Ethernet switch.
Power over
Ethernet (PoE)
The AT-TQ5403e access point supports Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
on the LAN port. The access point is a PoE+ class 4 powered device with
a maximum power consumption of 25.5 watts. When the port is connected
to a PoE+ Ethernet switch, the access point receives its power over the
network cable that carries the network traffic. The LAN port is the only way
to supply the power to the device.
Note
The PoE device that supplies power to this device, such as a switch,
must be a UL listed Information Technology Equipment (ITE).
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 49.
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.

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 11 on page 49 for the port pinouts of the LAN port when it is
operating at 10 or 100 Mbps in the MDI configuration and Table 12 on
page 50 for the MDI-X configuration. Refer to Table 13 on page 50 for the
port pinouts when the port is operating at 1000 Mbps.

Starting the Initial Management Session on the Access Point
The wireless access point firmware includes a DHCP client. The default
setting for the client is enabled. When you power on the access point for
the first time, it queries the subnet on the LAN port for a DHCP server. If a
DHCP server responds to its query, the unit uses the IP address the server
assigns to it. If there is no DHCP server, the access point uses the default
IP address 192.168.1.230.
Note
The initial management session of the access point has to be
conducted through the LAN port because the default setting for the
radios is off.
To start the management session, perform the following procedure:
1. Connect the access point to a PoE switch.
If your network has VLANs, the access point must be connected to a
port on the PoE switch that belongs to the same VLAN as the port
where your management PC is connected.
You may need to access the management software on the PoE switch
to list the VLANs and their port assignments. For example, if the
access point is connected to a port that is a member of the Sales
VLAN, your management PC must be connected to a port that is also a
member of that VLAN. If your network is small and does not have
VLANs or routers, you may connect your management PC to any port
on the PoE switch.
2. Start the web browser on your management PC.
3. Perform the one of the following steps:
If your network does not have a DHCP server, change the IP
address on your management PC to 192.168.1.n. The n is any
number from 1 to 254, except 230. Then, enter the default address
192.168.1.230 in the URL field of the web browser.
If your network has a DHCP server, enter the IP address that the
DHCP server assigned ti the access point.
The login page appears. See Figure 19 on page 44.

Setting the Country Setting
You should set the country setting during the initial management session
of the access point to ensure that the device operates in compliance with
the codes and regulations of your region or country.
Note
The non-US model of this product has a country code setting that
must be set during the initial management session of the unit. The
setting ensures that the unit operates in compliance with the laws
and regulations of your country or region.
For the US model, the country code is preset and cannot be
changed. Per FCC regulations, the country code setting for all WiFi
products marketed in the US must be fixed to US operational
channels only.
To set the country setting, perform the following procedure:
1. Select Settings > Radio from the menu on the left,
The access point displays the Basic Settings for Radio 1. See
Figure 20.

2. Select the Country pull-down menu and select your country or region.
Note
If the Country pull-down menu is deactivated and cannot be
changed, the country parameter was set when the unit was
manufactured. If the setting is not correct for your country or region,
contact your Allied Telesis sales representative for assistance.
The access point displays a confirmation prompt.
3. Click OK to change the country setting or Cancel to cancel the
procedure.
If you click OK, the access point changes the country setting and
disables all radios on the access point.
Note
This procedure does not require clicking the Save & Apply button.
Allied Telesis recommends rebooting the access point after changing
the country settings. To reboot the unit, either power off on the unit or
continue with these steps:
4. From the Maintenance menu, select Reboot.
5. Click the Reboot button.
6. When the access point displays a confirmation prompt, click OK to
reboot the unit or Cancel to cancel the procedure.
