Connect the Power Injector

To connect the Aruba 80 Outdoor Wireless Access Point to a power source:
Caution: The wireless outdoor Access Point's Ethernet port does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE) based on
the IEEE 802.3af standard. Do not try to power the unit by connecting it directly to a network switch that
provides IEEE 802.3af PoE due to the AP's maximum power draw requirement of 30 Watts. Always
connect the unit to the correct Power over Ethernet injector module (sold separately).
1.
1.
Connect the Ethernet cable from the wireless Access Point to the RJ-45 port labeled "Output" on
the power injector.
2.
2.
Connect a straight-through unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable from a local LAN switch to the
RJ-45 port labeled "Input" on the power injector. Use Category 5 or better UTP cable for 10/100BASE-TX
connections.
N
:
The RJ-45 port on the power injector is an MDI port. If connecting directly to a
OTE
computer for testing the link, use a crossover cable.
1.
3.
Insert the power cable plug directly into the standard AC receptacle on the power injector.
2.
4.
Plug the other end of the power cable into a grounded, 3-pin socket, AC power source.
N
:
For International use, you may need to change the AC line cord. You must use a line cord set that
OTE
has been approved for the receptacle type in your country.
5.
Check the LED on top of the power injector to be sure that power is being supplied to the wireless Access Point
through the Ethernet connection.
