Description
The AP is starting up.
The AP has completed startup and is waiting to be managed by a controller
(such as IP-COM ProFi Software Controller, ProFi App/ProFi Cloud web Ul,
an AP controller (AC), or a router with AP management function).
The AP is managed by a controller (such as IP-COM ProFi Software
Controller, ProFi App/ProFi Cloud web Ul, an AP controller (AC) or a router
with AP management function) and is working properly.
The AP Locate feature was activated in the ProFi Software Controller or
ProFi Cloud.
The AP is isolated and no longer provides wireless access (due to disconnection
from the uplink network).
The AP is busy (for example, upgrading firmware). Do not disconnect the
power.
Description
Reset button, used to reset the AP. For the reset method, see Q4 in FAQ.
10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation port for both PoE power supply and
data transmission.
Generally connected to an upstream device (such as a PoE switch).
You can power the AP by:
-The included PoE adapter or power adapter.
- Other PoE power supply devices with IEEE 802.3af/at standards.
Used to fix Ethernet cables to the AP.

Power the AP
CAT5e or better Ethernet cables are recommended.
Method 1: Power the AP with the included PoE adapter and power cord
1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the LAN/PoE port of the AP to the PoE port of the included PoE
adapter.
2. Use the included power cord to connect the PoE adapter to a power socket.
Tips:
The maximum power supply distance of the AP is 30 meters.
