Component Descriptions
Component Description
Status LED The Status LED indicates the operational state of your access point such as boot
status, firmware updates and error states. For details, see table “LED Status” below.
Eth0 (PoE) Eth0 is the Ethernet port to connect your access point to your network. This port
can also be connected to a PoE capable source (PoE Injector or PoE switch) to
power your access point. Alternatively, you can power the access point using an
APX 120 Power Supply (available as an accessory from your Sophos partner).
Power
Connector
If you are not using PoE as a power source you can connect
an optionally available APX 120 Power supply here.
Reset button The reset button allows you to reboot the device and reset its configuration
to the factory default. For details, please see section “Reboot & Reset”
