Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point Hardware Installation Guide
OL-8370-04
Chapter 2 Installing the Access Point
Connecting the Ethernet and Power Cables
Step 2 To mount your Cisco Aironet antenna, refer to the instructions that came with your antenna.
Connecting the Ethernet and Power Cables
The access point receives power through the Ethernet cable or an external power module. Figure 2-4
shows the power options for the access point.
Figure 2-4 Access Point Power Options
The access point power options are listed below:
• A switch with inline power, such as a Cisco Catalyst 3500XL, 3550-24 PWR, 4000, or 6500 switch
• A Cisco Aironet Power Injector (AIR-PWRINJ-FIB or AIR-PWRINJ3)
• An inline power patch panel, such as the Cisco Catalyst Inline Power Patch Panel
• A power module (Universal power supply)
Note Currently, the Catalyst 3550-24 PWR switch supports power for both the 2.4-GHz radio and the 5-GHz
radio. Other switches and power patch panels might not provide enough power for the 5-GHz radio.
Note If you use in-line power, do not connect the power module to the access point. Using two power sources
on the access point might cause the switch to shut down the port to which the access point is connected.
