Power Supply and Consumption | RG-AP180 |
Input power supply | The AP supports the following two power supply modes:
● 12 V DC/1 A power input over DC connector: The DC connector accepts 2.1 mm/5.5 mm center-positive circular plug. A DC power adapter needs to be purchased separately. ● PoE input over the PoE-in port: The power source equipment (PSE) complies with the IEEE 802.3af standard. The IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) standard is backward compatible with the IEEE 802.3af (PoE) standard. Note: ● When powered by 802.3at (PoE+), the AP operates with the optimal performance. ● If both DC power and PoE are available, DC power is preferred. |
External power supply | Not supported |
Power consumption | Max power consumption: 10 W
