 951Ui-­‐2HnD  

Quick  Setup  Guide  and  Warranty  Information  

The  RB951Ui  is  a  AP  device  with  5  ethernet  ports,  Ether1  supports  powering  by  PoE,  ether  5  
supports  PoE  output  for  powering  another  device.  

Connecting
1. Connect  your  Internet  cable  to  port  1,    
and  LAN  computers  to  ports  2-­‐5  
2. Set  LAN  computer  IP  configuration  to  automatic  (DHCP)  
3. Wireless  AP  mode  is  enabled  by  default,  you  can  connect  to  the  SSID  “MikroTik”.  
Log  into  your  router  from  your  web  browser  by  opening  192.168.88.1  in  the  
address  bar  
4. The  Ether5  port  suports  PoE  output,  with  auto  detection  feature.  This  means  you  can  connect  Laptops  and  other  non-­‐PoE  devices  
without  damaging  them.  The  PoE  on  Ether5  outputs  approximately  2V  below  input  voltage,  and  supports  up  to  0.58A  (So  provided  
24V  PSU  will  provide  22V/0.58A  output  to  the  Ether5  PoE  port).    

Powering  
The  device  accepts  powering  from  the  power  jack  or  from  the  first  Ethernet  port  (Passive  PoE):  

• DC  power  jack  (5.5mm  outside  and  2mm  inside  diameter,  female,  pin  positive  plug)  accepts  8-­‐30V  DC  
• The  first  Ethernet  port  accepts  passive  Power  over  Ethernet  accepts  8-­‐30V  DC  

Under  maximum  load,  the  power  consumption  of  this  device  is  7W  

Booting  process  
The  device  is  preinstalled  with  MikroTik  RouterOS  software.  It  can  be  configured  in  several  ways.  

This  device  doesn't  come  fitted  with  a  Serial  Port  connector,  so  initial  connection  has  to  be  done  via  the  Ethernet  cable.  
Connect  to  wireless  SSID  “MikroTik”  and  open  192.168.88.1   in  your  web  browser.   Username  is  admin  and  there  is  no  password.  
In  case  IP  connection  is  not  available,  Winbox  can  be  used  to  connect  to  the  MAC  address  of  the  device.  More  information  here:  
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/First_time_startup  

In  case  you  wish  to  boot  the  device  from  network,  for  example  to  use  MikroTik  Netinstall,  hold  the  RESET  button  of  the  device  
when  starting  it  until  the  LED  light  turns  off,  and  Metal  will  start  to  look  for  Netinstall  servers.  

In  case  you  wish  to  boot  the  device  from  network,  for  example  to  use  MikroTik  Netinstall,  hold  the  RESET  button  of  the  device  
when  starting  it  until  the  LED  light  turns  off,  then  release  the  button  and  the  device  will  start  looking  for  Netinstall  servers.  

By  default,  the  device  is  preconfigured  with  a  simple  firewall  on  the  WAN  port,  this  configuration  can  be  viewed  when  first  
connecting  to  the  Router  via  Winbox.  It  will  ask  whether  to  keep  this  configuration  or  clean  it  to  use  your  own.  LAN/WLAN  
ports  have  DHCP  server  enabled.  

Extension  Slots  and  Ports  

• Five  individual  10/100  Ethernet  ports,  supporting  automatic  cross/straight  cable  connection  (Auto  MDI/X),  so  you  can  use  either  
straight  or  cross-­‐over  cables  for  connecting  to  other  network  devices.  The  First  Ethernet  port  accepts  8-­‐30V  DC  powering  from  a  
passive  PoE  injector.  
• One  Integrated  Wireless  2.4GHz  802.11b/g/n  2x2  MIMO,  Onboard  PIF  antennas,  max  gain  2.5dBi  
• One  USB  2.0  port

Resetting  the  device  
In  case  you  wish  to  return  the  device  to  its  original  configuration,  you  can  use  the  RESET  button  which  is  located  to  the  left  of  
the  Ethernet  ports.  Hold  this  button  during  boot  time  until  LED  lights  start  flashing,  then  release  the  button  to  reset  RouterOS  
configuration.  You  can  use  this  procedure  if  you  have  forgotten  the  password  to  access  the  device,  or  simply  wish  to  return  the  
unit  to  its  default  configuration  state.  

Buttons  and  Jumpers  

• RouterOS  reset  jumper  hole  (on  the  bottom  of  case,  behind  one  of  the  rubber  feet)  –  resets  RouterOS  software  to  defaults.  Must  
short  circuit  the  metallic  sides  of  the  hole  (with  a  screwdriver,  for  example)  and  boot  the  device.  Hold  screwdriver  in  place  until  
RouterOS  configuration  is  cleared.      
• RouterBOOT  reset  button  (RESET,  front  panel)  has  two  functions:  
ü Hold  this  button  during  boot  time  until  LED  light  starts  flashing,    
release  the  button  to  reset  RouterOS  configuration  (same  result  as  with  RouterOS  reset  hole)  
ü Hold  this  button  during  boot  time  longer,  until  LED  turns  off,    
then  release  it  to  make  the  RouterBOARD  look  for  Netinstall  servers.  

Operating  System  Support  

Currently  tested  operating  system  is  MikroTik  RouterOS  starting  from  version  v5.24

Federal  Communication  Commission  Interference  Statement    
(FCC  ID:  TV7RB951U-2HND)  
This  equipment  has  been  tested  and  found  to  comply  with  the  limits  for  a  Class  B  digital  device,  pursuant  to  Part  15  of  the  FCC  
Rules.  These  limits  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable  protection  against  harmful  interference  in  a  residential  installation.  

This  equipment  generates,  uses  and  can  radiate  radio  frequency  energy  and,  if  not  installed  and  used  in  accordance  with  the  
instructions,  may  cause  harmful  interference  to  radio  communications.  However,  there  is  no  guarantee  that  interference  will  
not  occur  in  a  particular  installation.  If  this  equipment  does  cause  harmful  interference  to  radio  or  television  reception,  which  
can  be  determined  by  turning  the  equipment  off  and  on,  the  user  is  encouraged  to  try  to  correct  the  interference  by  one  of  the  
following  measures:  

• Reorient  or  relocate  the  receiving  antenna.  

• Increase  the  separation  between  the  equipment  and  receiver.  
• Connect  the  equipment  into  an  outlet  on  a  circuit  different  from  that  to  which  the  receiver  is  connected.  
• Consult  the  dealer  or  an  experienced  radio/TV  technician  for  help.  

FCC  Caution:  Any  changes  or  modifications  not  expressly  approved  by  the  party  responsible  for  compliance  could  void  the  
user’s  authority  to  operate  this  equipment.  

This  device  complies  with  Part  15  of  the  FCC  Rules.  Operation  is  subject  to  the  following  two  conditions:  (1)  This  device  may  
not  cause  harmful  interference,  and  (2)  this  device  must  accept  any  interference  received,  including  interference  that  may  
cause  undesired  operation.  

This  device  and  its  antenna  must  not  be  co-­‐located  or  operation  in  conjunction  with  any  other  antenna  or  transmitter.  

IMPORTANT:  Exposure  to  Radio  Frequency  Radiation.  

23  cm  minimum  distance  has  to  be  maintained  between  the  antenna  and  the  occupational  user  and  75  cm  to  general  public.  
Under  such  configuration,  the  FCC  radiation  exposure  limits  set  forth  for  an  population/uncontrolled  environment  can  be  
satisfied.
