Single Radio Operation
The access point contains a 2.4-GHz radio in a mini-PCI slot and two 2.2-dBi dipole integrated antennas.
You can perform a field upgrade to the mini-PCI radio and antennas to support new radio technologies,
such as the 2.4-GHz IEEE 802.11g-compliant radio.
Ethernet Port
The auto-sensing Ethernet port accepts an RJ-45 connector, linking the access point to your 10BASE-T
or 100BASE-T Ethernet LAN. The access point can receive power through the Ethernet cable from a
power injector, switch, or power patch panel. The Ethernet MAC address is printed on the label on the
back of the access point.
