Ethernet Connections for Wireless LAN Access Points
The RJ-45 network port on wireless LAN access points connects the access point to a
wireless LAN controller (WLC) or to a switch in the network. The access point receives
power and data through the RJ-45 port.
The port provides a 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing (MDI/MDIX) Gigabit Ethernet
connection. The access point can be configured as a direct or indirect connection through
an intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 network. Use a Category 5 (or higher) cable and
standard RJ-45 connectors to connect the access point to a controller or to a Juniper
Networks switch in the network.
The access point draws power from a standard IEEE 802.3af Power Over Ethernet (PoE)
supply. The access points can also receive PoE power from PoE-capable switches or
other Juniper Networks switches that support PoE.
NOTE: The access points do not support daisy-chain configurations. Do not
connect one access point to another access point.

PoE Information for the WLA532E Access Point
The WLA Series Wireless LAN access point operates as a powered device within standard
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) from either mid-span or end-span power source
equipment. It also operates on IEEE 802.3at (54 V from power source equipment and
12.95W power consumption) or IEEE 802.3at (PoE+). It responds to IEEE 802.3at discovery
as an IEEE 802.3af class 3 device. The access point operates below IEEE 802.3af standard
PoE power.
