Using the AC Power Adapter
If you use the AC power adapter to provide power to the access point, you do not need to adjust the access
point configuration.

Using a Switch Capable of IEEE 802.3af Power Negotiation
If you use a switch to provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) to the access point and the switch supports the
IEEE 802.3af power negotiation standard, select Power Negotiation on the System Software: System
Configuration page.

Using a Switch That Does Not Support IEEE 802.3af Power Negotiation
If you use a switch to provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) to the access point and the switch does not
support the IEEE 802.3af power negotiation standard, select Pre-Standard Compatibility on the

Using a Power Injector
If you use a power injector to provide power to the access point, select Power Injector on the System
Software: System Configuration page and enter the MAC address of the switch port to which the access
point is connected.

Operating 5-GHz Radio Requires Power Injector, Power Module, or Catalyst 3550-24 PWR Switch
The 1200 series power injector and the 1200 series power module support operation of the 5-GHz radio
in the access point. Currently, the Catalyst 3550-24 PWR switch supports power for both the 2.4-GHz
radio and the 5-GHz radio. Other switches and power patch panels might not provide enough power for
the 5-GHz radio.

Access Point Requires 1200 Series Universal Power Supply and Power Injector
If you use a power injector or a power module to provide power to a 1200 series access point, you must
use a 1200 series universal power supply. If you need to use a power injector to inject power into the
access point’s Ethernet port, you must use a 1200 series power injector. The 350 series universal power
supply and power injector are not compatible with the 1200 series access point.
