Hardware Components
Youcan see the hardware components of the AP510C and AP510CX in the illustration below and read about them in the sections that follow. The
illustration shows an AP510C model. The components are the same for both models, except the AP510CX has eight external antenna connectors.
Component Descriptions
Status Light
The status light conveys operational states for system power, firmware updates, Ethernet and wireless interface activity, and major alarms. The
AP510C and AP510CX have a rectangular status light on the top right corner of the chassis. At setup, this light cycles through the following
sequence:
l
Steady Amber: The device is initializing.
l
Slow-blinking White:The device is receiving 802.3afpower, instead of 802.3at power.
l
Fast-blinking White: The device is looking for a mesh neighbor from which to obtain a password.
l Slow-blinking Amber (AFpower mode only): The device is attempting to establish a connection or has established a CAPWAPconnection
with ExtremeCloudIQ.
l Fast-blinking Amber: The device is performing a IQEngine or ExtremeCloudIQ upgrade.
l
Steady White: The device has successfully established a CAPWAP connection and is operating normally.
Ethernet Ports
The ETH0 port is autosensing 100/1000/2500G BASE-T/TX Mbps, with IEEE 802.3af- or 802.3at-compliant PoE, and requires Cat6 cable.
The Eth 1 port is autosensing 10/100/1000 BASE-T/TX Mbps, wth IEEE 802.3af- or 802.3at-compliant PoE.
There are three power options. In the event of a failure, the device will automatically reboot using the next priority power source. When the failed
power source is replaces, you must manually reboot the device again to use the repaired power source. For example, if Eth0 and Eth1 are in use,
and Eth0 fails, the device will automatically reboot using Eth1. When Eth0 is restored, youwill need to manually reboot the device to again use
Eth0.

The priorities are:
l First priority: 12VDC
l Second priority: PoE - Eth0
l Third priority: PoE - Eth1
