System Configuration
4-7
• The access point’s transmit and receive algorithms could be negatively impacted
• The access point’s transmit power could be reduced due to insufficient power
• The access point’s WAN port configuration could be changed (either enabled or disabled)
Automatic is the default mode. When Auto is selected, the CPLD determines how much power is
available at startup (3af, 3at or Full Power for an AP-7131N-FGR model).
Radios at Full Power
The table below describes the maximum transmit power available to each radio (at varying data rates)
when the access point is receiving full DC power and is not compromised in its power budget. These
values should be viewed as the safe limit for the access point’s radio at full power and should not be
exceeded.
NOTE An AP-7131N-FGR model uses 22 watts when its power status is 3af,
23 - 26 watts when its power status is 3at and 27 watts when its power
status is Full Power.
CAUTION The power modes described in the section are only obtainable using
the 48-Volt Power Supply (Part No. 50-14000-247R) designed for an
AP-7131N-FGR or using the single-port Power Injector (Part No.
AP-PSBIAS-1P3-AFR).
NOTE Radio transmit power is not used as one of the factors to determine the
available power budget. If an external power supply is used, it is assumed
it will provide full power. When operating using full power, each radio has
3x3 antenna mode support and its intended transmit power budget.
