Connect PoE Equipment in a Business Environment
The following figure shows an example of how you can connect PoE wireless access points that require
802.11af only, PoE VoIP phones, and PoE surveillance equipment to the switch in a business environment.
In a small office or home office network, the blue network icon represents a router that is connected to an
Internet modem. In such a setup, you must connect one port on the switch to a LAN port on the router.
