Properly powering a meshed AP105

    Posted May 07, 2013 04:30 PM

    Hi all,

     

    I have 30 wired APs at one of our sites.  I have one AP that is too far from a wiring closet to cable it to the network.  So I am looking at meshing this AP to one or more of the other 29 APs.  My question is, how do I power this AP?  Should I use a POE injector and a 75 foot cat5e cable to run from teh POE injector to the AP (preferred), or do I need to run AC power up to my AP and get a power supply for the AP?  Or can I do either?

     

    Thanks!

    You can do either.
