PoE on 7010 controller %3F How many APs can I power up %3F

    Posted Aug 12, 2014 02:50 PM

    I have 15 AP 225s. I need to power over ethernet to power them up. I have an Aruba 7010 controller. Do I need any licenses to enable the PoE ports on the 7010 ? Does a 7030 controller have PoE ports ? Is 1 7010 controller sufficient to power up the 15 APs ? 

     

    Also another basic doubt: 1 PoE port can power up only 1 AP - is my understanding correct ? 

     

     


    #7010

    The 7010 has 12 PoE ports. Each port can provide power to one AP.

    Thank you very much !! 

     

    So, the 7030 does not have PoE ports correct ? Is there a controller that can power up all my 15 APs ?

    Note the 7010 has a POE budget of only 150W, so almost more important than the number of POE ports is the overall POW power budget available. 

     

    Regarding a controller to power more than 12APs, you should contact your local Aruba SE for details.

    Thank you !! 

     

    Another quick question ( Since I have not worked with a 7010 before)

     

    How do you enable PoE on a 7010 ? if I have the necessary licenses installed ? ( and if I do not have the necessary licenses installed)

    There is no PoE license.
