Possible Power Supplies
The following power supplies are suitable for the Enterasys Wireless Outdoor AP:
•
48 V DC direct voltage
Use the two‐pin connector supplied with the Enterasys Wireless Outdoor AP.
•
110 ‐ 230 V DC direct voltage
Use the power supply adapter 110 ‐ 230 V DC available as an accessory.
•
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
If an eight‐wire Ethernet cable is used, it is possible to supply power over the four wires that
are not used as the data lines. As an alternative the voltage can be modulated onto the data
lines (ʺphantom powerʺ).
If Fast‐Connect Ethernet connectors are used to allow assembly in the field or due their
greater mechanical strength, only four‐wire cables can be used. In this case, only phantom
power is possible. This does not represent a restriction for the user since PoE‐compatible
power supply equipment must always provide both options.
To connect a 48 V DC cable to the Enterasys Wireless Outdoor AP:
1.
Connect the supplied connector to the 48 V DC cable. Figure
