Connect the Power
The access point complies with the IEEE 802.3af power-over-Ethernet standard. It receives power over a
standard category 5 straight (8-wire) Ethernet cable. There are two ways to supply power to the access
point (refer to the illustration below):
standard category 5 straight (8-wire) Ethernet cable. There are two ways to supply power to the access
point (refer to the illustration below):
■
Use the supplied 3Com Integrated Power-over-Ethernet power supply.
In this case,
you need to supply a second Ethernet cable to connect to the wired LAN.
■
Connect the access point directly to your own power-over-Ethernet hub or switch, which
must also comply with the IEEE 802.3af standard.
must also comply with the IEEE 802.3af standard.
Using the Power Supply
The power supply can be located at any point between the access point and the LAN access port,
wherever a convenient power outlet exists. If you supply your own Ethernet cable for connecting power,
be sure that it is standard category 5 straight-through (8-wire) cable that has not been altered in any
way. Use of nonstandard cable could damage the access point.
