Ethernet (Poe) Ports - Cisco Catalyst 9124AX Series Hardware Installation Manual

Hardware Features

Ethernet (PoE) Ports

Caution
When the AP is installed outdoors or in a wet or damp location, the AC branch circuit powering the AP should
be provided with ground fault protection (GFCI), as required by Article 210 of the National Electrical Code
(NEC).
Ethernet (PoE) Ports
The AP supports an Ethernet uplink port (also for PoE-In). The Ethernet uplink port on the AP uses an RJ-45
connector (with weatherproofing) to link the AP to the 100BASE-T, 1000BASE-T, or 2.5GBASE-T network.
The Ethernet cable is used to send and receive Ethernet data and optionally supply inline power from the
power injector or a suitably powered switch port.
Tip
The AP senses the Ethernet and power signals, and automatically switch internal circuitry to match the cable
connections.
Danger
To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 24 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord. Statement 1023
The Ethernet cable must be a shielded, outdoor rated, Category 5e (CAT 5e) or better cable. The AP senses
the Ethernet and power signals and automatically switches internal circuitry to match the cable connections.
