Bluetooth Low Energy Radios
650 Series access points are equipped with an integrated BLE and 802.15.4 radio that provide the following
capabilities:
n location and asset-tracking applications
n wireless console access
n IoT gateway applications
Console Port
The console port is a Micro-B connector is located on the back of this device. Use the proprietary AP-CBL-SERU

Ethernet Ports
The 650 Series Campusaccess points are equipped with two 100/1000/2500/5000 Base-T auto-sensing
MDI/MDX wired RJ45 Ethernet ports (E0 and E1). The 2.5bps speed complies with NBase-T and 802.3bz
specifications. Both ports are compliant with 802.3ab 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet and 802.3az (Energy
Efficient Ethernet) standards. Both ports support 802.3af, 802.3at and 802.3bt Power over Ethernet
compliance to accept power from a POE source, such as a PoE midspan injector, or a network switch.
The 650 Series access points are equipped with two active Ethernet ports (Eth0 and Eth1) (link to figure). Both
ports are 100/1000/2500/5000 Base-T, auto-sensing MDI/MDX, which supports uplink connectivity when
linked by an Ethernet cable. Refer to Figure 5 for a detailed port pin-out.
