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.

Overall power consumption

Maximum power consumption: 10 W

● DC powered: 10 W

● PoE powered (802.3af): 10 W

● Idle mode: 3.3 W
