AP-105 drawing too much power

    Hi Community,

     

    Several AP-105s we have observed is intermittently drawing too much power (more than 15.4mW) and I've been trying to get as much information on how to deal about it. For now, we have to manually set the switchport power setting. What could be the possible reason why it may draw too much power? We checked the cables and they are less than 100m. 

     

    Thanks

     

    Oliver

    Hi Oliver,

     

    What is the switch that you are using?

    Hi,

     

    We are using brocade ICX 6610-48P switches.

     

    Thanks

    Oliverm,

     

    Please contact Aruba TAC about this issue.

    As CJoseph pointed out, open a TAC case but I would be curious to know if you're 105s are in hybrid mode? Meaning do you have hybrid spectrum monitoring enabled?

     

    EDIT: specifically on the 5ghz band
