    Caution

    If not using an AP-PSBIAS-2P3-ATR Power Injector, ensure only the AP-8533‘s designated power supply (PWR-BGA48V45W0WW) is used to supply power to the Access Point. Using an incorrectly rated power supply could damage the Access Point and void the product warranty. Do not actually connect to the power source until the cabling portion of the installation is complete.
  4. Verify the unit has power by observing the LEDs.
