Aruba 340 Series Access Points
Installation Guide
Aruba 340 Series access points (AP-344 and AP-345) are high-performance dual-radio wireless
devices. These access points use Multi-User Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) technology
to provide secure wireless connectivity for both 2.4GHz 802.11 b/g/n and 5GHz 802.11a/n/ac Wi-Fi
networks. The optional dual-5GHz radio mode allows both radios to operate in the 5GHz radio mode
simultaneously, delivering true dual-5GHz performance. The 340 Series can be deployed in both
controller-based or controllerless network environments.
The two wired Ethernet ports located on the back of this access point allow users to connect directly
to the device when linked by an Ethernet cable. The 340 Series can be attached to a 9/16" or 15/16”
ceiling rail using the provided mount adapters.
The Aruba 340 Series provides the following capabilities:
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless access point
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a wireless Air Monitor
IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac operation as a Spectrum Analysis
Supports IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet)

USB Interface
The top of this access point is equipped with a USB-A port that is compatible with cellular modems.
When active, this port can supply up to 5W/1A to a connected device.
Push Button
The push button located on the bottom of the device can be used to reset the access point to factory
default settings or turn off/on the LED display.
To reset the access point to factory default settings:
1. Power off the access point.
2. Press and hold the push button using a small, narrow object, such as a paperclip.
3. Power-on the access point without releasing the push button. The System Status LED will flash
within 5 seconds.
4. Release the push button.
The system status LED will flash again within 15 seconds indicating that the reset is completed. The
access point will now continue to boot with the factory default settings.
To turn off/on the LED display:
During the normal operation of the access point, press and release the push button using a small,
narrow object, such as a paperclip.
Power
The E0 and E1 ports support PoE-in from 802.3af and 802.3at power sources.
When powered by an Maximum power consumption for PoE 802.3af is 25W
If a PoE source is unavailable, an AP-AC-48V36C power cord (ordered separately) may be used to
connect the power socket, located at the back of the access point, to a DC power source.
The maximum power consumption from a DC source is 30W.
When an Aruba 340 Series access point is powered by both DC and PoE power sources
simultaneously, the DC power source is prioritized, while a small current is drawn from the PoE
source. Likewise, when an Aruba 340 Series access point is powered by two PoE sources
simultaneously, the 802.3at power source is prioritized, while a small current is drawn from the
802.3af source.
In the event that the primary power source fails, the small current drawn from the secondary source
will keep the access point alive, allowing for a hitless failover.
Intelligent Power Management (IPM) mode reports the access point’s power consumption and
enables intelligent management solutions to optimize energy efficiency.
Aruba 340 Series Access Points | Installation Guide
Before You Begin
Refer to the sections below before beginning the installation process.
Pre-Installation Checklist
Before installing your Aruba 340 Series access point, be sure that you have one of the following:
Cat5E UTP cable with network access installed in the wall box
Aruba DC power cord
One of the following network services:
Aruba Discovery Protocol (ADP)
DNS server with an “A” record
DHCP Server with vendor-specific options
Identifying Specific Installation Locations
This access point should be oriented vertically, with rubber pads facing downward to facilitate
maximum antenna gain. Use the access point placement map generated by Aruba RF Plan software
application to determine the proper installation location(s). Each location should be as close as
possible to the center of the intended coverage area and should be free from obstructions or obvious
sources of interference. These RF absorbers/reflectors/interference sources will impact RF
propagation and should be accounted for during the planning phase and adjusted for in RF plan.
Identifying Known RF Absorbers/Reflectors/Interference Sources
Identifying known RF absorbers, reflectors, and interference sources while in the field during the
installation phase is critical. Make sure that these sources are taken into consideration when you
attach an access point to its fixed location.
RF absorbers include:
Cement/concrete—Old concrete has high levels of water dissipation, which dries out the concrete,
allowing for potential RF propagation. New concrete has high levels of water concentration in the
concrete, blocking RF signals.
Natural Items—Fish tanks, water fountains, ponds, and trees
Brick
RF reflectors include:
Metal Objects—Metal pans between floors, rebar, fire doors, air conditioning/heating ducts, mesh
windows, blinds, chain link fences (depending on aperture size), refrigerators, racks, shelves, and
filing cabinets.
Do not place an access point between two air conditioning/heating ducts. Make sure that access
points are placed below ducts to avoid RF disturbances.
RF interference sources include:
Microwave ovens and other 2.4 or 5 GHz objects (such as cordless phones)
Cordless headset such as those used in call centers or lunch rooms
Access Point Installation
The Aruba 340 Series access point is designed for office deployments and may be fastened to a ceiling tile rail
using the mount adapters provided. Additional wall mount adapters and ceiling rail adapters for other rail styles
Aruba 340 Series Access Points | Installation Guide
are available as accessory kits, which may be purchased separately.
All Aruba access points should be professionally installed by an Aruba-Certified Mobility Professional (ACMP).
The installer is responsible for ensuring that grounding is available and meets applicable national and electrical
codes. Failure to properly install this product may result in physical injury and/or damage to property.
Tous les points d'accès Aruba doivent impérativement être installés par un professionnel agréé. Ce dernier doit
s'assurer que l'appareil est mis à la terre et que le circuit de mise à la terre est conforme aux codes électriques
nationaux en vigueur. Le fait de ne pas installer correctement ce produit peut entraîner des blessures
corporelles et / ou des dommages matériels.
Use the steps in this section to install the 340 Series access point.
1. Pull the necessary cables through a prepared hole in the ceiling tile near where the AP will be placed.
2. Place the adapter against the back of the AP with the adapter at an angle of approximately 30 degrees to the
tabs, then twist the adapter clockwise until it snaps into place onto the tabs (see Figure 6).
Figure 6 Attaching the Ceiling Rail Adapter
3. If necessary, connect the console cable to the console port on the back of the access point.
4. Hold the access point next to the ceiling tile rail with the ceiling tile rail mounting slots at approximately a 30degree angle to the ceiling tile rail (see Figure 5). Make sure that any cable slack is above the ceiling tile.
5. Pushing toward the ceiling tile, rotate the AP clockwise until the device clicks into place on the ceiling tile rail.
Ensure that the AP is locked into the ceiling rail mount before completing the installation.
6. (Optional) When installing the AP-344, connect the external antennas connectors on the front of the access
point.
