Installation Overview
g) Thread the seal nut on to the seal ring. Hand tighten until the ring grommet seals onto the cable jacket.
Step 6

Connecting Data Cables

All the models of this AP support data connections through the Ethernet port and the Small Form-factor
Pluggable (SFP) port. However, both the Ethernet port and the SFP port cannot be used for data simultaneously.
If the SFP is detected and active, the Ethernet port is disconnected. If the SFP is not detected, the Ethernet
port stays connected.
If you are using the SFP port to deliver data through a fiber-optic cable, the AP must be powered by DC
power, power adapter, or a power injector.
