Ethernet Ports
The HPE Networking Instant On Access Point AP22D is equipped with five Ethernet ports E0 to E4. The E0 port is 100/1000/2500 Base-T, auto-sensing MDI/MDX, which supports uplink connectivity when linked by an Ethernet cable. The access points support downlink network connectivity through E1-E4 Ethernet ports. The ports are 10/100/1000Base-T auto-sensing MDI/MDX. Ports E1 and E2 have power sourcing capability (PSE) to supply power to any compliant 802.3af (class 0-3) PD device.

Network Status LEDs
The Network Status LEDs, on the sides of the E1-E4 ports, indicates activity transmitted to or from the wired ports.

  1. Blinking: one second on, one second off, 2-seconds cycle.

Reset Button

The reset button can be used to reset the access point to factory default settings. There are two ways to reset the access point to factory default settings:

  • To reset the AP during normal operation, press and hold down the reset button using a small, narrow object such as a paper clip for more than 10 seconds during normal operation.
  • To reset the AP while powering up, follow these steps:
    1. Press and hold down the reset button, using a small and narrow object such as a paper clip, while the access point is not powered on (either through DC power or PoE).
    2. Connect the power supply (DC or PoE) to the access point while the reset button is being held down.
    3. Release the reset button on the access point after 15 seconds.

Power Sources

DC Power
A 48V/50W AC/DC power adapter is available in the box if you buy the HPE Networking Instant On Access Point AP22D bundle. To purchase the power adapter separately, refer to the HPE Networking Instant On Access Point AP22D ordering guide.

Caution : All Hewlett Packard Enterprise access points should be professionally installed by a professional installer. 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.

  • Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
  • For indoor use only. The access point, AC adapter, and all connected cables are not to be installed outdoors. This stationary device is intended for stationary use in partly temperature controlled weather-protected environments (class 3.2 per ETSI 300 019).

Before You Begin

Refer to the sections below before beginning the installation process.
FCC Statement: Improper termination of access points installed in the United States configured to non-US model controllers will be in violation of the FCC grant of equipment authorization. Any such willful or intentional violation may result in a requirement by the FCC for immediate termination of operation and may be subject to forfeiture (47 CFR 1.80).

Pre-Installation Checklist
Before installing the access point, ensure that you have the following:

  • A mount kit compatible with the AP and mount surface
  • One or two Cat5E or better UTP cables with network access
  • Optional items:
  • A compatible power adapter with power cord
  • A compatible PoE midspan injector with power cord
  • Refer to the HPE Networking Instant On Access Point AP22D data sheet for compatible items, quantities needed, etc.

Identifying Specific Installation Locations
The HPE Networking Instant On Access Point AP22D is designed in compliance with governmental requirements, so that only authorized network administrators can change configuration settings. For more information about AP configuration, refer to the Instant On User Guide. Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.

  • Use the access point placement map generated by Hewlett Packard Enterprise 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.
