Chapter1 Overview
Hardware Features
Table 1 -1 lists the supported external antennas.
Ethernet Port
The auto-sensing Ethernet port accepts an RJ-45 connector, linking the access point to your 10BASE-T
or 100BASE-T Ethernet LAN (see Figure 1-2). The access point can receive power through the Ethernet
cable from a power injector, switch, or power patch panel. The Ethernet MAC address is printed on the
label on the side of the access point (refer to the “Finding the Product Serial Number” section on
page xi).
LEDs
The access point has four LEDs to provide a visual indication of access point operations (refer to the
“Checking the Access Point LEDs” section on page 3-3 for additional information).
•Power LED
•Alarm LED
•2.4 GHz LED
•5 GHz LED
Power Sources

cable.
Warning
This product must be connected to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant power source
or an IEC60950 compliant limited power source.
