Figure 1: Product Packing
Inform your HAN sales representative of incorrect, missing, or
damaged parts. If possible, retain the carton, including the
original packing materials. Use these materials to repack and
return the unit to the supplier if needed. Additional mounting kits
for use with the HAN Access Point AP241/AP241e are sold
separately. Contact your HAN sales representative for details.

48VDC
The AP has a single 48V DC power jack socket to
support powering through an AC-to-DC power
adapter. If PoE is not available, an optional AC-DC
adapter kit (sold separately) can be used to power
the AP.

Pre-Installation Checklist
Before installing your HAN Access Point, be sure that you have the
following items:
4- or 8-conductor, CAT5 or better UTP cable of required length.
Power sources:
a) For full-function running mode (Tri-Radio,2.4GHz 4x4:4 +
5GHz 4x4:4), the following two kinds of power sources are
acceptable
1) IEEE 802.3at compliant PoE source with LLDP
protocol supported, 60W, output voltage DC
48V(nominal), or
2) AC/DC adapter (sold separately) ，output
voltage DC 48V, output current > 0.75A
When both power sources are available, DC power takes priority over
PoE
b) For Power safe mode (Tri-Radio,2.4GHz 2x2:2 + 5GHz
2x2:2, USB disabled), an IEEE 802.3at compliant PoE
source is acceptable
A PC terminal or a notebook
Identifying Specific Installation Locations
You can mount the HAN Access Point on a ceiling rail (using the
shipped bracket in the box) or on a wall (using the wall mount adapter,
sold separately). You should first determine the location of the
installation. The installation position is located at 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.
It is strictly prohibited to install around stagnant water, water seepage,
leakage or condensation. Avoid cable condensation or water seepage
along the cables connecting to the AP.
Temperature and Humidity requirement
Operating temperature: 32ºF to 113ºF (0ºC to 45ºC)
Storage temperature: -40ºF to 158ºF (-40ºC to 70ºC)
Relative Humidity: 10% to 90% non-condensing
AP Installation
Using Ceiling Mounting Bracket
Make sure the AP fits securely on the ceiling tile rail when hanging
the device from the ceiling, poor installation could cause it to fall
onto people or equipment.
The HAN Access Point has been shipped with two mounting brackets for
9/16” and 15/16” ceiling rails. Following is the general sequence to
install the AP with the mounting bracket.
Pull the cables through a prepared hole in the ceiling tile near
where the AP will be placed.
Place the bracket against the back of the AP, insert by aligning the
slot on the backside with the hanging feet on both sides of the
bracket (see Figure 4).
Push the bracket along the direction of the arrow until it locks in
the slot (see Figure 4).
Connect the cable to the port on the AP.
Hold the AP next to the ceiling tile rail with the ceiling tile rail
mounting slots at approximately a 20-degree angle to the ceiling tile
rail (see Figure 5). Make sure that any cable slack is above the
ceiling tile.
Pushing toward the ceiling tile, rotate the AP clockwise until the
device clicks into place on the ceiling tile rail (see Figure 5).

Connect Ethernet
Use the Ethernet port to connect the AP with a twisted pair Ethernet LAN
segment. Use a 4- or 8-conductor, Category 5 UTP cable. The port is an
RJ-45 female connector with the pinouts shown in Table2.

Table 2: Ethernet Port Pinout
Connect Power Sources
Confirm that the Ethernet cable is loaded either with 48V DC (nominal)
60W/802.3at compliant PoE source (with LLDP protocol) for full-function
running mode, or just with 802.3at compliant PoE source for power safe
mode.
If not, connect by using the HAN 48V AC-DC adapter kit (sold separately)
to the DC Power Socket and AC power jack.
If both PoE and DC power are available, the use of DC is preferred.
HAN Access Point supports the power adapter provided by HAN
ONLY.
Verifying Post-Installation Connectivity
The LED on the AP can be used at this point to verify that the AP is
receiving power and initializing successfully (see Table 3).
