802.3bt/at PoE Power Source (either PoE switch or Meraki 802.3bt/at PoE Injector) or an AC adaptor and network cables with RJ45 connectors long enough for
your particular mounting location
Note: CW9166D1 does not support 802.3af power source.
Note: CW9166D1 can be powered by a PoE Switch, PoE Injector or an AC adaptor. Powering up the AP with an AC adapter while connecting to a PoE source
is not recommended. Proper functionality of the AP is not guaranteed and this can potentially cause damage to the AP hardware.
Installation Instructions
Choose Your Mounting Location
The Cisco Catalyst Wireless 9166D1 Series Wi-Fi 6E Access Point can be mounted in the following places:
•
Suspended ceiling
•
Hard ceiling
•
Wall or pole
•
Electrical or network box
•
Above a suspended ceiling
A good mounting location is important to get the best performance out of your access point. Keep the following in mind:
1. The device should have an unobstructed line of sight to most coverage areas. For example, if installing in an office filled with workspaces divided by mid-
height cubicle walls, installing on the ceiling or high on a wall would be ideal.
2. Power over Ethernet supports a maximum cable length of 300 ft (100 m).
