How to Setup RouterBoard RB711-2Hn

RouterBoard RB711-2Hn is a single chain 2 GHz 802.111n wireless device with one Ethernet port.
First Use

1. Connect antenna cables to the built in Wi‐Fi connectors
2. Power the device from Ether1 port with a passive PoE injector

Powering
Thee board accepts power with the following modes:
With Po to ETHER1 port. It accepts 8‐30V DC input (at the board; higher voltage needed to compensate for power loss on long cables; at least 188V suggested)) from non‐standard (passive) Power over Ethernet injectors (no power over data lines). The board does not work with IEEE8022.3af compliant 48V power injectors.

Booting process
This device doesn't come fitted with a Serial Port connector, so initial connection has to be done via the Ethernet cable, using
the MikroTik Winbox utility. Winbox should be used to connect to the default IP address of 192..168.88.1 with the username admin and no password.
In case IP connection is not available, Winbox can also be used to connect to the MAC address of the device. More information here: htttp://wiki.mikkrotik.com/wwiki/First_timme_startup
In case you wish to boot the device from network, for example to use MikroTik Net-install, hold the S301 button of the device when starting it until it beeps and the LED light turns off and RB711 will look for Net-install servers.

Extension Slots and Ports
One 10/100 Ethernet port, supporting automatic cross/straight cable correction (Auto MDI/X), so you can use either straight or cross‐over cables for connecting to other network devices. Thee Ethernet port accepts 8‐30V DC powering from a passive PoE injector. Built‐in 802.11b/g/n Wi‐Fi card with two MMCXX/uFL (depends on model) connectors


Buttons and Jumpers
Router OS reset jumper hole (RESET, marked with a black circle in the diagram above, below S301) – 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.
S301 – Holding this button during boot time will make RB711 look for Netinstall servers. Release thee button after the LED light goes out.

Operating System Support

Currently tested operating system is MikroTik Router OS (starting from version v4.116).
