1 Introduction

AP-6521 Series Access Points are components of Motorola Solutions Wireless Controller System. An AP-6521 links
wireless 802.11a/b/g/n devices to the controller, enabling the growth of your wireless network with a
cost-effective alternative to standard Access Points. The AP-6521 Series Access Point is an enterprise class
802.11n Access Point, installed in minutes anywhere a CAT-5e (or better) cable is located.
An AP-6521 Series Access Point utilizes a setup wizard to define its operational mode as either a Dependent mode
AP, Standalone AP or Virtual Controller AP.
AP-6521 Series Access Points ship with a single dual-band radio supporting the 802.11a/b/g/n radio bands. For
more information on available SKUs, refer to the following:

The AP-6521 series Access Point is approved under MODEL: NCAP-500.
Motorola Solutions recommends the Access Point receive power and transfer data through the same CAT-5e (or
better) Ethernet cable using a Motorola Solutions Power Injector. The Power Injector
(Part No. AP-PSBIAS-2P2-AFR) is an 802.3af PoE injector. For information, see
A separate power supply (Part No. PWRS-147376-01R) is also available if you do not wish to use a Power Injector.
This standard power supply just supplies power to the Access Point's power connector and does not converge
power and Ethernet within a single cable connection.
