OWER EQUIREMENTS
The access point complies with the IEEE 802.3af power-over-Ethernet standard. It
receives power over standard category 5 straight (8-wire) Ethernet cable.
Installation requires the use of either the 3Com power supply provided or
IEEE 802.3af compliant power supply equipment (output power rated 48 V dc @
400 mA maximum). Such equipment must be safety certified according to UL,
CSA, IEC or other applicable national or international safety requirements for the
country of use. All references to the power supply in this document refer to
equipment that meets these requirements.
Because the power supply plug is the only means of disconnecting the access
point from power, make sure the power outlet is accessible.
See "Using the Power Supply" on page 2-8 and "Using a Power-Over-Ethernet
LAN Port" on page 2-8.

any way. Use of nonstandard cable could damage the access point.
CAUTION: To comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits, a minimum
!
body-to-antenna distance of 20 centimeter (8 inches) must be maintained when
the access point is operational.
CAUTION: To avoid possible injury or damage to equipment, you must use either
!
the provided power supply or IEEE 802.3af compliant power supply equipment
that is safety certified according to UL, CSA, IEC, or other applicable national or
international safety requirements for the country of use. All references to power
