NETGEAR WiFi 6 AX1800/AX3600 Dual Band PoE/PoE+ Access Points, WAX214 and WAX218
Figure 5. Hardware interfaces of model WAX218
The bottom panel contains the following components:
• Reset button. You can use the Reset button to restart the access point or to reset
the access point to its factory default settings. To restart the access point, press the
Reset button for about two seconds. Pressing the Reset for 10 seconds or longer
resets the access point to factory default settings.
• LAN/PoE+ port. You can use the LAN/PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 port to connect
the access point to a PoE+ switch, or if you use a power adapter, to a non-PoE switch.
The LAN/PoE+ port supports Ethernet speeds up to 2.5 Gbps.
Note: If you do not use a power adapter, use a PoE+ (803.2.at) switch. If you use a
PoE (803.2.af) switch, the access point might not receive sufficient power for normal
operation.
• DC power connector. If you do not use a PoE+ switch to provide power to the access
point, connect an optional power adapter to the DC power connector.
Note: The back panel provides a Kensington lock slot for an optional security cable.
