6 Mounting and Powering the Access Point
The access point can be placed/mounted in a horizontal position, on a horizontal surface such as a
table.
To ensure the best RF coverage for y
our access point, place your access point in an area as close to the
wireless clients as possible and practical to do so. If the Internet source or gateway router is in a remote
area, position your access point away from metal obstructions.
Areas to avoid or places that may result in
reduced range or performance are as follows.
• In a basement of a multi-story home, as the signals must penetrate many walls.
• Near large obstructions that can block the radio signals. Avoid areas like metal cabinets or
r
efrigerators.
• On the floor under a metal desk or other dense or conductive objects.
The AP is powered using 44 to 57 VDC power via the VDC port, using Cisco Power Adapter
AIR-PWR-D=. The P
oE-Out port provides 802.3af Class 0 (15.4W) power.
