  • Page 5: Introduction

    The AP-6511 Access Point ships with a single dual-band radio supporting the 802.11a/b/g/n radio bands. The AP-6511 receives all power and transfers data through the same CAT-5 or better Ethernet cable. There is no additional power supply required. An 802.3af PoE Ethernet switch or mid span power injector is required.

    • Optional three port Ethernet expansion module (sold separately) • 2 LED indicators The pass through (keystone) cable provides an option to add a second Ethernet port before installing the AP-6511. The AP-6511 has one RJ-45 connector supporting an 10/100 Ethernet port and requires 802.3af compliant power from an external source.
  • Page 7 The runtime firmware on the Access Point can be updated via the Ethernet interface. The front of the AP-6511 has an access cover that can be removed to expose an additional connector. A three port RJ-45 Ethernet expansion module connects to the hidden header and snaps onto the AP-6511 in place of the access cover.
