Hardware Reference Guide 93P RODUCT O VERVIEWReset ButtonTo reset the device or restore factory setting, insert a paper clip or similar tool into the Reset pinhole andpress the reset button. To reboot the device, hold the button down between 1 and 5 seconds. To return theconfiguration to the default settings, hold the button down for at least 5 seconds. When you release thebutton, the status LED goes dark as the system reboots, then turns amber while the firmware loads and thesystem performs a self-test. After the firmware has finished loading and the router has connected toHiveManager, the device status LED glows steady white.USB Modem PortBR200 devices can use a wireless USB modem for a WAN connection. The typical use of the USB modem is toact as a backup to the ETH0/WAN interface; however, for locations where an Ethernet connection to theWAN is not possible, you can use the USB modem as the primary (and only) interface to the WAN.Aerohive currently supports the following USB modems:• AT&T Momentum (Sierra Wireless Aircard 313U) to connect to the 3G wireless network• AT&T Shockwave (Sierra Wireless USBConnect 308) to connect to the 3G wireless network• Verizon Pantech UML290 to connect to the 4G (LTE) networkBefore you can use a modem with an Aerohive device, you must first have the modem activated. You canhave this done in the store where you purchased the modem, or you can install software such as the VerizonVZA Access Manager on your computer, connect the modem to the USB port on your computer, preferablyat the site where you plan to deploy the router to confirm that the modem is working properly and that thereis adequate wireless network coverage in your location.BR200-WP PoE LAN PortsOn BR200-WP routers, the ETH1/PoE and ETH2/PoE ports can provide PoE (Power over Ethernet) to PDs(powered devices) such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, and network cameras. These ports areIEEE802.3af and IEEE802.3at PSE (power sourcing equipment) compliant, as described here:• 802.3af PoE provides up to 12.95 W of DC power to each device (this rate reflects normal power lossthrough the cables). 802.3af meets the power demands of PoE Class 0, 1, 2, and 3 devices.• 802.3at PoE provides up to 25.5 W of DC power to each device (this rate reflects normal power lossthrough the cables). 802.3at meets the power demands of PoE Class 4 devices.The BR200-WP router balances PoE power output automatically. For example, if a device connected to ETH1requires more power than the port can provide, and if ETH1 has the higher priority, ETH2 shuts down and shiftsall remaining power to ETH1. The router generates a log for every shutdown event.802.3af is the default setting for both ports, but you can configure one port for 802.3at to support devicesthat require more power than 802.3af can supply. By default, the ETH1 port running 802.3af has the higherpriority, but you can change the priority to determine which port shuts down to shift power to the other port.If you configure one port for 802.3at, the remaining port will continue to supply 802.3af power rates unless itneeds to shut down and shift power. Only one PoE port can supply 802.3at power at a time.When using a wireless USB modem on a BR200 device you must connect it to an AC power sourceinstead of using PoE to power the device.The international counterparts for the Momentum and Shockwave modems (the Sierra WirelessAircard 310U, 312U, and 320U) can also be used with these routers.If ETH1 is running 803.2at and you want to configure ETH2 for 803.2at, you must first reset ETH1 to803.2af, and then set ETH2 to 802.3at. |
