Connecting Data Cables
All models of the AP support data connections through the Ethernet port and the Small Form-factor
Pluggable (SFP) port. However, both the Ethernet port and the SFP port cannot be used for data at the
same time.
If the SFP is detected and active, the Ethernet port is disconnected. If the SFP is not detected, the
Ethernet port stays connected
If you are using the SFP port, to delivery data through a fiber-optic cable, then the AP needs to be
powered by DC power, power adapter, or by a power injector.
For details on installing Ethernet, see Connecting an Ethernet Cable to the Access Point, page 2-53.
For details on installing a a fiber-optic cable, see Connecting a Fiber-optic Cable to the AP, page 2-55.
