Note The maximum distance that is supported for in-line power is 328 ft. (100 m), including the length of
the 6.5-ft. (2-m) Ethernet cable provided with the power injector.
Installing the Power Injector
Follow these steps to install the power injector:
1. Plug a Category-5 Ethernet cable into the port on the power injector labeled AP.
2. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the WAN uplink Ethernet port of the access point.
3. Plug a Category-5 Ethernet cable into the port on the power injector labeled Switch.
4. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into your 10/100/1000 Ethernet switch, hub, or network.
5. When power is applied, the Status LED blinks green at approximately 1.5 times per second. When the
AP is detected, the Status LED glows solid green. If the power injector is connected incorrectly, the Status
LED blinks green at 10 times per second.
6. Secure the power injector by mounting it to a vertical or horizontal surface using the mounting keyholes
on the bottom of the unit.
Mounting Instructions
You can mount the power injector to most vertical or horizontal surfaces using the mounting tabs on the top
right and bottom left of the unit.
Using the Mounting Tabs
To mount the power injector to a vertical or horizontal surface using the mounting tabs, you will need the
following parts and tools:
Two #6 plastic wall anchors if mounting to a drywall surface
Two #6 x 1-in. (2.5 cm) sheet-metal screws
A drill and a 3/16-in (0.48-cm) drill bit
A Phillips head screw driver
A small hammer
Follow these steps to mount the power injector:
1. Using the holes in the power injector mounting tabs as a template, mark the locations on the surface
where you will drill the holes for the wall anchors or screws.
2. Drill a 3/16-in. (4.7-mm) hole at each marked location.
3. If you are using #6 wall anchors, use a hammer to install them in the holes.
4. Hold the power injector to the wall and align the mounting tabs on the power injector with the screw
holes.
5. Insert the #6 screws through the mounting tabs and into the holes in the wall or surface.
6. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to drive the screws into the surface.
