SonicWALL SonicPoint N2 Getting Started Manual page 14

The SonicPoint N2 is powered using Power over Ethernet
(PoE). A SonicWall 802.3at compliant PoE line injector (sold
separately), or an 802.3at compliant switch is required to
power each SonicPoint N2.
To connect PoE to your SonicPoint N2
1 Using an Ethernet cable, connect the Data in port on
the SonicWall PoE Injector to an existing WLAN zone
interface or to an unused interface to be configured
later in SonicOS.
2 Using a second Ethernet cable, connect the Data and
Power out port on the SonicWall PoE injector to the
LAN1/PoE port on your SonicPoint N2.
3 Plug the power cord of the SonicWall PoE injector into
an appropriate power outlet.
4 Wait for the LAN1 LED on the SonicPoint N2 to
illuminate green. This indicates an active connection.
See Product safety and regulatory information on page 29.
