Introduction
The AP-85 Streetlight Power Tap Adaptor is for use with AP-85FX/LX outdoor rated access points. This
power tap adaptor allows the access point (AP) to receive pre-switched AC power via the streetlight
power source, ensuring constant AP operation even when the streetlight is powered off. The power tap
adaptor allows operation at 100-240 V~ from a single phase of a standard 220 V or 480 V two phase
streetlight receptacle.
