A separate Power Injector is required for each Access Point comprising the network.
The following guidelines should be adhered to before cabling the Power Injector to an Ethernet source and an
Access Point:
• 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 isn't a repeater, and does not amplify the Ethernet signal. For optimal performance,
ensure the Power Injector is placed as close as possible to the data port.
CAUTION
CAUTION
To install the Power Injector to an Ethernet data source and an Access Point:
1. Connect the Power Injector to an AC outlet (110VAC to 220VAC).
2. Connect an RJ-45 Ethernet cable between the network data supply (host) and the Power Injector Data In
connector.
To avoid problematic performance and restarts, disable POE from a
wired controller port connected to an Access Point if mid-span power
sourcing equipment (PSE) is used between the two, regardless of the
manufacturer.
Ensure AC power is supplied to the Power Injector using an AC cable
with an appropriate ground connection approved for the country of
operation.
