When both AC and POE power sources are available, AC power takes priority over POE

Power sources are sold separately; see the ordering Information section below for details

See below conditions for each power configuration:

• • When powered by AC, the AP will operate without restrictions, including 802.3af/at support (with upper thermal limitations).* With IPM enabled, the AP will adjust power requirements to meet requirements, and will reduce according to established IPM policy
  • When powered by 802.3bt Class 6, the AP will operate without restriction, limited to 802.3af PSE support.* With IPM enabled, the AP will adjust power requirements to meet requirements, and will reduce according to established IPM policy
  • When powered by 802.3bt Class 5 with LLDP, full function but no PSE support*
  • When powered by 802.3at, AP will reduce both radios to 2 chains only, and will disable PSE out*
  • When powered by 802.3af, the AP will boot up, but not enable any radios, regardless of IPM settings.
    • With IPM enabled, the AP will adjust power requirements to meet requirements, and will reduce power as necessary according to the established IPM policy

Maximum (worst-case) power consumption

• • AC powered: 71W (802.3af/at*)
