Current-Consumption Calculations for AP11-powered devices:
The current-consumption calculation is necessary to ensure the total draw of all connected devices is
less than the 200mA capacity of the Customer Board. If using all 2-wire devices, no calculation is
required as the AP11’s capacity is sufficient for this configuration. For all other cases, use the
following table to determine the current-consumption.

Devices
Multiply by

= 0 mA

Note: If the manufacturer specifies power consumption in watts instead of current in
milliamps, assume that the device is receiving 15V and approximate the current draw as
follows:
