Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Powering the Access Point
Warning
This equipment must be externally grounded using a customer-supplied ground wire before power is
applied. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain
that suitable grounding is available.
Statement 366
Warning
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
Statement 1001
The 1532 access point supports these power sources:
• DC power – 24- 57 VDC
• Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
The 1532 access point can be powered via the PoE input from an in-line power injector or a suitably
powered switch port. Depending on the configuration and regulatory domain, the required power for full
operation is UPoE. For the 1532E, 802.3at power is sufficient for all regulatory domains and full 2x2
MIMO operation on both 2.4 and 5 GHz radios. Either the AIR-PWRINJ4= or the AIR-PWRINJ1500-2=
power injector can be used.
For the 1532I, UPoE powered switch port or the AIR-PWRINJ1500-2= power injector is required for
full operation of the 3x3 MIMO on the 2.4 GHz radio in the regulatory domains that allow for high 2.4
GHz transmit power (Regulatory domains -A, -D, -F, -K, -N, -Q, -T, -Z). If the 1532I is powered by a
PoE+ (802.3at power) switch port or the AIR-PWRINJ4= power injector, then the access point will
automatically disable one of the 2.4 GHz transmitters and the radio will operate in 2x3 MIMO mode.

Caution Do not place the power injector in an unprotected outdoor environment because water could get into the
power injector and cause a short circuit and possible fire.
