Power sources and power consumption

The AP supports direct DC power and Power over Ethernet

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

Power sources are sold separately; see the 600H Series Ordering Guide for details

The AP-605HR bundles include an AC-to-DC power adapter

When powered by DC or 802.3bt (class 6) POE, the AP will operate without restrictions

When powered by 802.3at (class 4) POE and with the IPM feature disabled, the AP will disable the USB port (only) if POE-PSE is enabled, and support (802.3af) POE-PSE power on E1 only (no PSE on E2)

When powered by 802.3af (class 3) POE with the IPM feature disabled, the AP will disable the USB port and POE-PSE capability. With IPM enabled, the AP will start up without restrictions, but may dynamically apply additional restrictions depending on the POE budget and actual power consumption. The feature specific restrictions and order in which they are applied can be configured.

Maximum (worst-case) power consumption (AP only / USB adder / POE PSE adder):

    • DC powered: 14.9W / 5.8W / 27.5W
    • POE powered: 13.9W / 5.8W / 30.1W

Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in idle mode (AP only):

    • DC powered: 5.8W
    • POE powered: 5.9W

Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in deep-sleep mode (AP only):

    • DC powered: 1.5W
    • POE powered: 1.4W

 

Mounting details

Using one of the (separate orderable) mount kits, the AP can be attached to a single or dual gang wall-box,
directly to a wall, or desk mounted. See the 600H Series Ordering Guide for details.
