Powering the MR34 with an 802.3at Power over Ethernet Switch
Route Ethernet cable from a port on an active 802.3at PoE switch to the Eth0 port in the bay of the MR34. The MR34 is
Gigabit Ethernet-capable. To maximize device performance, a Gigabit-capable switch should be used.
Meraki switches are 802.3at compatible and will power the MR34 by default, using LLDP negotiating. When using Cisco
switches, an extra step may be required to configure the Cisco switch to use LLDP to communicate with the Meraki
MR34; see the following article for more details:
Low_Power_Mode_on_Cisco_Switches
Powering the MR34 with an 802.3af Power over Ethernet Switch or 802.3af Power over Ethernet Injector (sold separately)
The MR34 will function in low power mode when powered by a 802.3af power source. While in low power mode, the
MR34 will disable its Air Marshal radio as well as two out of three transmit streams on the 2.4 Ghz band. Despite being
in low power mode, the device can still supply full 802.11ac capabilities. For more information on low power mode
please see the following article for more details:

Mount the MR34

Attach the MR34 to the Mount Cradle
(This section applies to wall and/or solid ceiling, drop ceiling or electrical junction box mount
where you have already installed the mount cradle.)
The MR34 attaches to the mount cradle with two tabs on the cradle that insert into the MR34, and is secured to the
cradle using one screw.
To attach the MR34 to the mount cradle properly, line up the top edge of the AP with the top tab of the mount cradle.
Since the cradle is already mounted to the wall, guide the MR34 towards the top tab and insert the top tab into the
MR34's slot.
