The XAP-1020 is POE ready and supports Legacy (48v 1a), 802.3af, and 802.3at 
POE injectors. A POE injector is included with the device. To apply power, simply 
connect the opposite end of the Ethernet cable to which the access point is 
already connected to the provided POE injector or other POE switch or injector. An 
Ethernet cable length of up to 300 feet can be used. DO NOT yet apply power to 
the POE injector or switch. 

 

NOTE:

  Category-5, super Category-5 or Category-6 unshielded twisted pair 

(CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 UTP) cables should be used. For best results, it 
is recommended that CAT5e or CAT6  shielded twisted pair be used 
to ensure stable data transmission at highest data rates.
