Power Options
Aironet 350 Series APs
Power to Aironet 350 Series equipment is supplied through Category 5 cable to the Ethernet port (inline). There is no separate power socket on the 350 Series equipment. The option to supply power to the devices over the data cable infrastructure eliminates the need for local power and AC infrastructure costs. This is the fundamental difference between the 340 and 350 Series Aironet equipment.
The Aironet 350 Series AP includes a 10/100−Mbps Ethernet uplink for seamless integration with existing wired LANs. In order to minimize installation costs, the Aironet 350 Series AP draws operating power from a powered Ethernet port. This line power configuration works with all Cisco line power−enabled devices, such as Catalyst switches and line power patch panels. You can also use a line power injector, which is included with the product, in order to power the Aironet 350 Series AP.
The voltage requirement for the 350, 1100, and 1200 Series is 48 V.
