10 Powering the Access Point
The AP can be powered using:
• 48 V DC power via the 48VDC port, using Cisco Power Adapter AC DC AIR-PWR-C=. Ensure
that the power cable is routed through the strain relief retention clips cast into the enclosure. See
Figure 5.
• Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) from the Ethernet cable, from an external power source such as the
Cisco Power Injector AIR-PWRINJ4=.You can also use the AIR-PWRINJ5 Cisco Power Injector
but with reduced functionality.
• Any 802.3at (25.5 W) or 802.3af (15.4 W) compliant power injector.
However, when powered by an 802.3af powering source, the AUX and USB ports are disabled.
The 2.4GHz radio will shift to 2x3:2SS operation and the 5GHz radio will remain at full
operation.
With an 802.3at or the AIR-PWR-C= as the power source, the AP provides full operation
including the AUX and USB ports.
