1 Introduction
The AP-621 Series access point, component of Motorola Solutions Wireless Controller System, links
wireless 802.11a/b/g/n devices to the controller, enabling the growth of your wireless network with
a cost-effective alternative to standard access points. The AP-621 Series is an enterprise class
802.11n access point, installed in minutes anywhere a CAT-5e (or better) cable is located.
An AP-621 Series access point operates in dependent mode only, and requires adoption and
management by a Motorola Solutions controller to receive its configuration.
An AP-621 Series access point ships with a single dual-band radio supporting the
802.11a/b/g/n radio bands. For more information on available SKUs, refer to the following:
The AP-621 Series access point is approved under MODEL: NCAP-500.
Motorola Solutions recommends the access point receive power and transfer data through the same
CAT-5e (or better) Ethernet cable using a Motorola Solutions Power Injector. The Power Injector
(Part No. AP-PSBIAS-2P2-AFR) is an 802.3af PoE injector. For information, see “
Power Injector
System ” on page 7.
A separate power supply (Part No. PWRS-147376-01R) is also available if you do not wish to use a
Power Injector. This standard power supply just supplies power to the access point’s power connector
and does not converge power and Ethernet within a single cable connection.
The AP-621 Series access point requires adoption by a Motorola Solutions controller to receive its
configurations. For information, see “
Defining a Basic Configuration
” on page 17.
