    Hi All, 

     

    I am trying to setup a network with 14- AP-93 , 1- 650 controller.

    Basically internet access is desired using MAC and captive portal auth using Internal DB.

     

    I have to suggest a low price  PoE Switch to customer.

    I am thinking of  Dlink   DES-1210-28P  24 Port switch

     ftp://support.dlink.co.in/pdfs/products/DES-1210-28P/DES-1210-28P_ds.pdf

    It has PoE Budget 193 Watts, 802.1x feature.

     

    any other suggestions ?? any compatibility issue ??

    AP-93 power draw is 10W and that D-Link seems to be pushing 15.4W trough every port so I don't see why it wouldn't work. Cheap stuff usually has 100Mbit ports like in this case. I've used some cheap-ass Zyxel, A-Link, Netgear stuff, the power feeding works ok and I don't bother with other possible features. Quality of these devices is what is, got pile of broken PoE injectors.
