The Active Ethernet (AE) integrated module receives ~48 VDC over

a standard Category 5 Ethernet cable.

To use Active Ethernet, you must have an AE hub (also known as a

power injector) connected to the network.

The cable length between the AE hub and the Access Point should

not exceed 100 meters (approximately 325 feet).

The AE hub is not a repeater and does not amplify the Ethernet data

signal.

If connected to an AE hub and an AC power simultaneously, the

Access Point draws power from Active Ethernet.

Maximum power supplied to an Access Point is 11 Watts; the unit

typically draws approximately 10 Watts.

NOTE:
The AP’s 802.3af-compliant Active Ethernet module is backwards
compatible with all Avaya Wireless Active Ethernet hubs that do not
support the IEEE 802.3af standard.
