Console Port

The serial console port is located at the back of the 207 Series 
access points and is a 4-pin connector covered by a dust cover. 
An optional serial adapter cable (AP-CBL-SER) is sold 
separately to connect the access points to a serial terminal or a 
laptop for direct local management. 

Ethernet Port

The 207 Series access points are equipped with one
10/100/1000Base-T (RJ-45) auto-sensing, MDI/MDX 
Ethernet port (ENET0) for wired network connectivity. This 
port supports IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE), as a 
standard defined Powered Device (PD) from a Power 
Sourcing Equipment (PSE) such as a PoE midspan injector or 
network infrastructure that supports PoE. 

Kensington Lock Slot

The 207 Series access points are equipped with a Kensington 
lock slot for additional security.

Reset Button

To reset the 207 Series access points to factory default 
settings, press and hold down the reset button using a small, 
narrow object such as a paper clip while the access points are 
powered on. 

DC Power Socket

If PoE is not available, an optional AP-AC-12V30B power 
adapter kit (sold separately) can be used to power the 207 
Series access points. 

Additionally, a locally-sourced AC-to-DC adapter (or any DC 
source) can be used to power this device, as long as it 
complies with all applicable local regulatory requirements and 
the DC interface meets the following specifications:

12 Vdc (+/- 5%) and at least 12W

Center-positive 2.1/5.5 mm circular plug, 9.5 mm length

CAUTION:  FCC Statement: Improper termination of 
access points installed in the United States 
configured to non-US model controllers will be in 
violation of the FCC grant of equipment authorization. 
Any such willful or intentional violation may result in a 
requirement by the FCC for immediate termination of 
operation and may be subject to forfeiture (47 CFR 
1.80).

ATTENTION: Déclaration FCC l’arrêt incorrect des 
points d’accès installés aux États-Unis qui sont 
configurés sur des contrôleurs autres que le modèle 
agréé aux États-Unis est considéré comme 
contrevenant à l’homologation FCC. Toute violation 
délibérée ou intentionnelle de cette condition peut 
entraîner une injonction d’arrêt immédiat de son 
utilisation par la FCC et peut déboucher sur la 
confiscation de l’équipement (47 CFR 1.80).
