1 Introduction
AP-6521 Series access points are components of Motorola Solutions Wireless Controller System. An
AP-6521 links wireless 802.11a/b/g/n devices to the controller, enabling the growth of your wireless
network with a cost-effective alternative to standard access points. The AP-6521 Series access point
is an enterprise class 802.11n access point, installed in minutes anywhere a CAT-5e (or better) cable
is located.
An AP-6521 Series access point utilizes a setup wizard to define its operational mode as either a
Dependent mode AP, Standalone AP or Virtual Controller AP.
AP-6521 Series access points ship with a single dual-band radio supporting the 802.11a/b/g/n radio
bands. For more information on available SKUs, refer to the following:
The AP-6521 series Access Point is approved under MODEL: NCAP-500.
Motorola Solutions recommends the access point receive power and transfer data through the same
CAT-5e (or better) Ethernet cable using a Motorola Solutions Power Injector. The Power Injector
(Part No. AP-PSBIAS-2P2-AFR) is an 802.3af PoE injector. For information, see “
Power Injector
System
” on page 7.
A separate power supply (Part No. PWRS-147376-01R) is also available if you do not wish to use a
Power Injector. This standard power supply just supplies power to the access point’s power connector
and does not converge power and Ethernet within a single cable connection.
