Power Supply Connector
The BSAP does not have a power switch. It is powered on when connected to the
supplied AC power adapter, and the power adapter is connected to a power
source. The BSAP automatically adjusts to any voltage between 100-240 volts at
50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.
The BSAP may also receive Power over Ethernet (PoE) from a model BSC-400
Controller, switch or other network device that supplies power over the network
cable based on the IEEE 802.3af standard.
Note that if the BSAP is connected to a PoE source device and also connected to
a local power source through its AC power adapter, PoE will be disabled.
Mounting Bracket Screw
If you are wall-mounting the BSAP, use this captive screw to secure the BSAP to its
mounting bracket.
Ethernet/PoE Connector
The BSAP has one 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 connector that can be attached
directly to 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX LAN segments to provide a full-duplex link.
These segments must conform to the IEEE 802.3 or 802.3u specifications.
This connector uses an MDI (i.e., internal straight-through) pin configuration. You
can therefore use straight-through twisted-pair cable to connect this port to most
network interconnection devices such as a switch or router that provide MDI-X
ports.
However, when connecting the BSAP to a workstation or other device that does
not have MDI-X ports, you must use crossover twisted-pair cable.
The BSAP appears as an Ethernet node and performs a bridging function by
moving packets from the wired LAN to remote workstations on the wireless
infrastructure.
The Ethernet/PoE RJ-45 connector also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) based
on the IEEE 802.3af standard. Note that if the BSAP is connected to a PoE source
device and also connected to a local power source through the AC power
adapter, PoE will be disabled.
Reset Button
Use this button to reset the BSAP or restore its factory default configuration. If you
hold down the button for less than 5 seconds, the BSAP will perform a hardware
reset. If you hold down the button for 5 seconds or more, any configuration
changes you may have made are removed, and the factory default configuration
is restored to the BSAP.
Serial Console Port
Use this port to connect a console device to the BSAP via a serial cable. The
console device can be a laptop PC or workstation running a VT-100 terminal
emulation program, or a VT-100 terminal.
