Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series Access Point Hardware Installation Guide
OL-6226-02
Chapter1 Overview
Hardware Features
Power Sources
The access point can receive power from an external power module or from inline power using the
Ethernetcable. The access point supports the IEEE 802.3af inline power standard and Cisco CDP Power
Negotiation. Usinginline power, you do not need to run a power cord to the access point because power
is supplied over the Ethernet cable.
Warning
Thisproduct must be connected to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant power source
or an IEC60950 compliant limited power source. Statement 353
Caution Be careful when handling the access point; the bottom plate might be hot.
The access point supports the following power sources:
•Power module
•Inline power:
–
Cisco Aironet Power Injector(AIR-PWRINJ3 o r AIR-PWRINJ-FIB)
–
An inline power capable switch, such as the Cisco Catalyst 3550 PWR XL, 3560-48PS,
3570-48PS, 4500 with 802.3AF PoE module, or the 6500 with 802.3AF PoE module
–
Other inline power switches supporting the IEEE 802.3af inline power standard
Note Some switches and patch panels might not provide enough power to operate the access point when
configuredwith both 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz radios. At power-up, if the access point is unable to determine
thatthe power source can supply sufficient power, the access point automatically deactivatesboth radios
to prevent an over-current condition. The access point also activates a Status LED low power error
indication and creates an error log entry (refer to the “Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on
page 6-2 and the “Low Power Condition” section on page 6-6).
UL 2043 Certification
The access point has adequate fire resistance and low smoke-producing characteristics suitable for
operationin a building's environmental air space, such as above suspended ceilings, in accordance with
Section 300-22(c) of the NEC, and with Sections 2-128, 12-010(3) and 12-100 of the Canadian
Electrical Code, Part 1, C22.1.
Caution Only the fiber-optic power injector (AIR-PWRINJ-FIB) has been tested to UL 2043 for operation in a
building’s environmental air space; the AIR-PWRINJ3 power injector and the power module are not
tested to UL 2043 and should not be placed in a building’s environmental air space, such as above
suspended ceilings.
