Using Power Over Ethernet

Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), based on the 802.3af standard, can be used to supply power to the

Airgo AP. If both DC power and PoE are used at the same time, then failover takes place

automatically in the event that one of the power sources is lost. For failover, the following rules

apply:

• The AP uses the power source with the highest voltage.

• Unplugging either cable causes power to switch automatically to the other source, which may

cause the AP to reboot.

Placement and Orientation

Make sure that the Airgo AP is positioned in an upright position for airflow and antenna placement

(Figure 16).
