Determine Power Requirements
Power requirements vary, depending on which AP433e radios are deployed and what MIMO
mode is used. See the chart below for supported power sources for different radio configura-
tions.
802.3af PoE Usage
When using System Director 5.0 (or later) and 802.3af PoE, Fortinet only supports two radios
(radio 0 and 1). This is because three radios using an 802.3af switch may not have enough
power to operate properly. When using an 802.af PoE, Fortinet supports single or dual radios
utilizing up to 3 antennas each.
802.3at PoE Usage
When using System Director 5.0 (or later) and 802.3at, all possible configurations are sup-
ported (all three radios utilizing up to 3 antennas each). For a list of supported PoEs, see the
appendix
“Supported Power Over Ethernet Devices for Fortinet APs” on page 85 .
Installation Requirements
An array of holes on the mounting bracket allows the AP433e to be mounted on the wall and
over junction boxes or molly bolts. There are holes for passing the PoE Ethernet or external
power supply cable through the bracket if the bracket is mounted on a junction box.
The AP433e has a security cable slot so you can lock the AP433e with a standard security
cable, such as those used to secure laptop computers.
Power Source Radios Supported
802.3af Radios 0 and 1
