A 1200 series power module (Universal power supply) Caution The 1200 series power injectors are designed for use with Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Points only. Using the power injector with other Ethernet-ready devices can damage the equipment. The 1200 series power injectors are not tested to UL 2043 and should not be placed in a building’s Caution environmental air space, such as above suspended ceilings.
Access Point Specifications, page 1-10). If you plan to mount the access point in environmental air space using a 5-GHz radio, Cisco recommends Note that you mount the access point horizontally with its antennas pointing down. Doing so results in the access point complying with regulatory requirements for environmental air space with the 5-GHz radio installed.

FCC-certified equipment. When used with approved Cisco Aironet antennas, Cisco Aironet products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper operation of this radio device according to the instructions in this publication results in user exposure substantially below the FCC recommended limits.
This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).
