Installing the ExtremeWireless™ AP-PSBIAS-
1P3-AFR Power Injector (1-Port Power-over-
Ethernet)
Overview
This guide is intended for the technician responsible for installing the Power
Injector. It assumes the technician is familiar with basic Ethernet LAN-based
networking and device installation concepts. This guide provides
specifications, procedures and guidelines to use during the installation
process. This guide does not provide site-specific installation procedures. For
detailed site-specific installation procedures, refer to the site-specific
documentation derived from site survey and site network analysis.
Warning: Only qualified personnel should perform installation
procedures.
Introduction
When users purchase a WLAN solution, they often need to place access points
in obscure locations. In the past, a dedicated 24-hour, 90-264 VAC power
source was required for each access point in addition to the Ethernet
infrastructure. This often required an electrical contractor to install power
drops at each access point location. With the AP-PSBIAS-1P3-AFR power
injector solution, centralized power can be provided for devices without a local
power supply for each.
Product Description
The AP-PSBIAS-1P3-AFR power injector is a single-port, 802.3af compliant
Power-over-Ethernet hub combining low-voltage DC with Ethernet data in a
single cable connecting to an AP. The Power Injector's single DC and Ethernet
data cable creates a modified Ethernet cabling environment eliminating the
need for separate Ethernet and power cables.
Figure 1 AP-PSBIAS-1P3-AFR Power Injector
The Power Injector is a small lightweight unit with a RJ-45 Ethernet cord input
connector from the hub on the front right-hand side of the unit and a RJ-45
data and power output connector to the AP on the front left-hand side of the
unit. On the back of the unit is a 110-220 VAC power input.
A separate Power Injector is required for each access point comprising the
network.
Caution: Using the Power Injector with an unsupported device
could render the device inoperable and void your warranty.
The Power Injector has the following features:
• Independent power controller (SPEAR™), CPU controller and input (Data)
and output (Data + Power) shielded RJ-45 connectors
• Supports standard 10/100 Base-T Ethernet networks over a standard TIA/
EIA-568 Category 5 (or higher) cabling.
• Meets the IEEE 802.3af standard.
• Universal AC Input:110/220 V, 60/50 Hz
• Minimum port output continuous allowable power of 15.4W at 48V
(minimum 12.95W at the PDTE)
• Underload, overload, short-circuit & under/over voltage port protection
• Port status and Main power LED indicators
• Standalone or wall mount installation support
• Interconnection option with other Power Injector units

Injector
Preparing for Site Installation
The Power Injector can be installed free standing, on an even horizontal
surface or wall mounted using the power injector's wall mounting key holes.
The following guidelines should be adhered to before cabling the Power
Injector to the Ethernet source and device:
• Verify the device receiving converged power and Ethernet from the Power
Injector is n approved product.
• Do not block or cover airflow to the Power Injector.
• Keep the Power Injector away from excessive heat, humidity, vibration and
dust.
• The Power Injector is not a repeater, and does not amplify the Ethernet
data signal. For optimal performance, ensure the Power Injector is placed
as close as possible to the network data port. Do not configure the cable
length between the Ethernet network source, the Power Injector and the
AP beyond 100 meters (333ft).
Safety Information
Before operating any equipment, review this document for any hazards
associated with installation and use of the device. Also, review standard
practices for preventing accidents.
• Only trained and qualified personnel should install and remove the Power
Injector
• A power cord is not supplied with the device. Use only a correctly rated
power cord that's certified, as appropriate, for the country of operation.
• The power cord must be a three-conductor type (two current carrying
conductors and one ground conductor) terminated on one end by an IEC
60320 appliance coupler (for Power Injector connection) and on the other
end by a plug containing a ground (earth) contact.
• The power cord must be rated for a minimum of 250VAC RMS operation,
with a minimum rated current capacity of 5A [or a minimum wire gauge of
18AWG (0.75mm2)].
• The AC wall-socket outlet must be near the Power Injector and easily
accessible.
• The Power Injector Data and Data & Power interfaces are qualified as SELV
(Safety Extra-Low Voltage) circuits according to the IEC 60950. These
interfaces can only be connected to SELV interfaces on other equipment.
Warnings
• Read the installation instructions before connecting the Power Injector to a
• power source.
• Follow basic electricity safety measures whenever connecting the Power
Injector to its power source.
• This product relies on the building installation for short-circuit (over
current) protection. Ensure a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC,
3A U.S. (240VAC, 1.5A international) is used on the phase conductor.
• A voltage mismatch can cause equipment damage and could pose a fire
hazard. If the voltage indicated on the label is different from the power
outlet voltage, do not connect the Power Injector to that particular outlet.
• The Power Injector Data In and Data & Power Out ports are shielded RJ-45
sockets. Only RJ-45 data connectors should be connected to these
sockets.
Mounting the Power Injector
To mount the Power Injector:
1 Install two screws in the wall or shelf as shown below:
Figure 2 Screw and nail positions
2 Align the PD-70016 mounting slots to capture the surface screws.
Cabling the Power Injector
To install the Power Injector to an Ethernet data source and device:
Caution: Ensure AC power is supplied to the Power Injector using an
AC cable with an appropriate ground connection approved for the
country of operation.
1 Connect the Power Injector to an AC outlet (100 VAC to 240 VAC).
2 Connect RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the network data supply (host)
and the Power Injector Data In connector.
3 Connect a RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the Power Injector Data & Power
Out connector and the device receiving converged power and Ethernet.
4 Ensure the cable length from the Ethernet source (host) to the Power
Injector and Extreme device receiving converged power and Ethernet does
not exceed 100 meters (333 ft).
Figure 3 Cabling the Power Injector
The Power Injector has no On/Off power switch. The Power Injector receives
power and is ready for device connection and operation as soon as the AC
power is applied.
Multiple Power Injector Installations
Each Power Injector has a coupling rail designed to connect Power Injectors
together to support multiple device installations. Align the power injectors and
slide the units together using the coupling rail to connect the units. Cable each
device as described in the Cabling the Power Injector section of this
document. Only one Extreme device (AP 100, AP 200, AP 300 or AP-5131) can
be powered from a single Power Injector.

Troubleshooting
The following potential power injector problem scenarios should be addressed
as follows:
Power Injector does not power up properly
1 Verify the power cord is operational and for the intended country of
operation.
2 Verify the voltage at the power inlet is between 100 and 240 VAC.
3 Remove and reapply power to the Power Injector and verify the LED
behavior during the powering sequence.
A Power Injector port indicator is not illuminated and the AP does not op-
erate
1 The Power Injector did not detect the AP and thus the port is not enabled.
2 Ensure you are using a standard 5/5e/6, straight-wired cable with four
pairs.
3 Verify the input Ethernet cable is connected to the Power Injector Data In
port.
4 Verify the AP is connected to the Power Injector Data & Power port.
5 Reconnect the AP to a different Power Injector. If the AP receives power,
there is probably a faulty port or RJ-45 connection on the Power Injector.
6 Verify there is not a short over any of the twisted pair cables or over the RJ-
45 connectors.
Access Point receives power but no Ethernet
1 Verify the Ethernet cable is connected to an active hub or switch port on
the network.
2 Verify the port indicator on the front panel is continuously illuminated.
3 Verify you are using a standard UTP/FTP Category 5 straight (non-
crossover) cabling with all four pairs.
4 Ensure the Ethernet cable length is less than 100 meters from the Ethernet
data source to the Power Injector.
5 Reconnect the Motorola AP to a different Power Injector. If the AP receives
power, there is probably a faulty port or RJ-45 connection on the Power
Injector.
