Overview
PWR Connectors
There are two options for powering the access point:
DC input over the PWR connector.
PoE inline power over the PoE IN port.
The access point requires a DC power supply. To power the access point with a DC power supply, you connect the DC
power to the PWR connector on the bottom panel (see Figure 1 on page 4 and Figure 4 on page 7). The DC input voltage
range is +12 to +48 VDC (-20%, +25%).
The PWR connector is an M12 A-code, 4-pin (male) connector. See Power Port, page 49 and DC Input and PoE IN
Specifications, page 41.
PoE OUT Port
Note: The PoE OUT port is only supported when the access point is powered over the PWR port. When powered over
the PoE IN port, PoE OUT functionality is not supported.
The PoE OUT port is a 10/100/1000 BASE-T port with an M12 X-code connector. The PoE OUT port supplies PoE inline
DC power to power external devices. The PoE OUT port pin-out conforms to Alternative A-MDIX mode.
Note: PoE inline power supports IEEE 802.3af compliant devices and delivers up to 15.4 W of PoE.
For more information about the PoE OUT, PoE IN, and DC input, see DC Input and PoE IN Specifications, page 41.
PoE IN Port
The PoE IN port is a 10/100/1000 BASE-T port with an M12 X-code connector. The port has auto-sensing and
auto-MDIX capabilities.
For more information, see DC Input and PoE IN Specifications, page 41.
Protective Vent Port
The protective vent port relieves pressure inside the access point chassis possibly caused by changing temperatures in
the installation environment. The vent prevents pressure from building up and damaging enclosure seals and potentially
exposing sensitive components to water. The vent also protects the access point interior from dust, dirt, water, and other
environmental elements.
Notes: When powering the access point:
—Power can be supplied via DC input (PWR connector) or PoE inline (PoE IN port), but not both.
—We recommend that you not use two power options concurrently, but no harm results if both are
present.
—If using both power inputs, DC input (PWR connector) power takes precedence and PoE inline
power is not used.
—Power supply redundancy is not supported.
Notes: The PoE IN port is an alternate power input to DC input over the PWR port.
Power the access point over the PWR port to enable the PoE OUT port.
When powered over the PoE IN port, PoE OUT functionality is not supported.

Overview
Note: If the vent is removed or damaged, the access point is subject to moisture damage.
Reset Button
You use the reset button to reset the access point or reload the software. The reset button is under the protective vent
port. To access the reset button:
1. Use a 5/8" socket to remove the protective vent.
2. Press the reset button.
—Press the reset button for 3 seconds to reset the access point to its factory settings.
—Press the reset button for 20 seconds to reload the access point software.
3. Replace the protective vent using 5/8" socket.
4. Torque the protective vent to 5-7 inch-lbs.
Console Port
You can connect the access point to a PC or laptop through the RJ45 CON port. The RJ45 CON port uses the Cisco
console port RJ45-to-DB9 cable (Cisco PN 72-3383-01).
A cable port seal covers the CON port. This liquid-tight plug protects the access point from environmental elements.
Ensure that the plug is installed during normal operation or when unit is unattended. You can remove and install the port
plug with a 1/2" (13 mm) socket. Torque it to 6-7 ft-lbs
For more information, see Console Port, page 51.
Ground Stud
The ground stud is the access point ground. You use screws to attach the wired grounding lug to the ground stud
(Figure 7 on page 16). Connect the other end of the ground wire to an earth ground such as a grounding rod or
appropriate ground point on a grounded pole.
Top Panel Components
This section describes the top panel components shown in Figure 5 on page 11.
Antenna Port
The antenna connector is a type N female coaxial connector.
Hard Points
The hard points are alternate mounting or attachment points for additional equipment such as directional antennas or
covers.
Note: Do not attach third-party radios using these hard points.
