You can power the AP through the RJ45 Ethernet port (LAN 1 (5GE) and LAN2 (GE) ports, see AP510e back ports). If you need to power the AP510e with an external 12V DC power supply, you can plug the power cord into the power connector on the back of the AP. There is no wall mount bracket for the 12V DC power supply. When the device is powered on, the power LED on the front face of the AP is lit.
| Power Source | Description |
|---|---|
| Power over Ethernet (PoE) | Power is provided through the RJ45 Ethernet port (LAN ports on AP510e back ports, items #4 and #5) of AP510e, compliant to be powered with 802.3af and provides full functionality with 802.3at. This is the preferred method of powering the AP on ceiling and high wall installations. |
| External 12V DC power supply (optional; ordering part #37219 - PWR 12VDC, 3A, 2.5mm x 5.5mm connector) | The AP510e can also be powered by an external DC power supply plugged into an AC source. Plug the supply‘s input jack into the 12V DC (AP510e back ports, item #2) port. |
Note
PoE is disabled when external power supply is used.The following table provides information on the status of the side ports on the access point when powered using 802.3af and 802.3at technology:
| AP510e | 802.3af | 802.3at |
|---|---|---|
| Radio 1 | 2x2 (14dBm) | 4x4 (16dBm) |
| Radio 2 | 2x2 (14dBm) | 4x4 (16dBm) |
| BLE | ON | ON |
| GE1 | ON | ON |
| GE2 | ON | ON |
| Dual band | Yes | Yes |
