Chapter 5 The Ap340 Platform - Aerohive AP120 Hardware Reference Manual

Chapter 5
The Aerohive AP340 is a high-performance and highly reliable 802.11n wireless access point. The AP340
provides dual concurrent 802.11b/g/n and 802.11a/n radios for 3x3 MIMO (Multiple In, Multiple Out) and
dual 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports for link aggregation or link redundancy. Its power management system uses
a concept called smart PoE (Power over Ethernet) to adjust its power consumption automatically in
response the available power in different environments. Smart PoE supports the IEEE 802.3af standard and
the 802.3at pre-standard.
