Cisco Aironet 1530 Series Outdoor Access Point Hardware Installation Guide

Chapter 1 Overview
Hardware Features
Ethernet (PoE) Ports
The access point supports an Ethernet uplink port (PoE-In). The access point Ethernet uplink port uses
an RJ-45 connector (with weatherproofing) to link the access point to the 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T or
1000BASE-T network. The Ethernet cable is used to send and receive Ethernet data and to optionally
supply inline power from the power injector or a suitably powered switch port.
Tip The access point senses the Ethernet and power signals and automatically switches internal circuitry to
match the cable connections.
Warning
To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.
Statement 1023
The Ethernet cable must be a shielded outdoor rated Category 5e (CAT5e) or better cable. The access
point senses the Ethernet and power signals and automatically switches internal circuitry to match the
cable connections.
Optional Hardware
Depending on what you ordered, the following optional access point hardware may be part of your
shipment:
• External antennas, depending on which ones you purchased (See “AP1532E (External Antenna)”
section on page 1-8 for information on available external antennas.)
• Wall/Pole mount bracket (AIR-ACCPMK1530-PMK1 [=])
• Wall/Pole mount bracket with tilt mechanism, spare only (AIR-ACC1530-PMK2=)
• Street light power tap (AIR-PWR-ST-LT-R3P=), works only with the AC/DC power adapter.
• Power injector (AIR-PWRINJ1500-2=, AIR-PWRINJ4=)
• AP cover / Solar Shield for 1532, spare only (AIR-ACC1530-CVR=)
• AC/DC power adapter, spare only (AIR-PWRADPT-1530=)
• Spare Parts kit containing extra cable glands, power connector, ground lug, etc.
