Security Features

The MR28 features multiple options for physically securing the access point after installation:

1. Security screw – The accessory kit includes screws that can be used to secure the access point to the mount

cradle. Engaging the security screw prevents accidental dislodging and theft.

Ethernet Ports

The MR28 features a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 port that accepts 802.3at and 802.3af power (labeled “Eth0, PoE”). This
port should be used for uplink to your WAN connection.

Power Source Options

The MR28 access point can be powered using either the Meraki AC Adapter, PoE Injector (both sold separately), or a
third-party PoE switch. The MR28 operates at full power with 802.3af PoE.

Factory Reset Button

If the button is pressed and held for at least five seconds and then released, the MR28 will reboot and be restored to its
original factory settings by deleting all configuration information stored on the unit.
