PoE Support
PoE support makes it easier to overcome installation problems with
difficult-to-wire or hard-to-reach locations. The same Category 5 cable
that connects the Access Point to the wired network also provides its
power, so AC power outlet locations and extra cabling are no longer
issues. You can source power from an 802.3af-compliant power sourcing
equipment (PSE) or use the supplied power adapter to power the Access
Point.
You can use the following 3Com PoE products to supply power to
