Connecting Cables & Power
1. Connect one end of the FE cable directly to the Aruba AP 60/61 FE port.
2. Connect the other end of the FE cable to one of the following:
To a network port on the Mobility Controller, or
To a network hub, router, or switch that has a routable path to the
Mobility Controller.
N OTE : If the connecting device supplies POE, a straight-through cable must
connect the Aruba AP 60/61 directly to the powering device without any
intervening hubs, routers, or other networking equipment.
3. Connect power, if necessary.
The Aruba AP 60/61 can receive electrical power using the following options:
z POE
If connecting the Aruba AP 60/61 to a device that supplies IEEE 802.3af
compliant POE no additional power connection is necessary.
z Power Outlet
N OTE : When the Aruba AP 60/61 is installed in an air-handling space, as
described in NEC (2002) Article 300.22(C), POE must be used instead
of a power outlet.
If local regulations and practices permit, connect the optional AC power adapter
(not included) to the DC power socket on the Aruba AP 60/61 and plug it into an
appropriate power outlet.
C AUTION : To prevent personal injury or damage to equipment, be
sure to comply with electrical grounding standards during
all phases of installation and operation of the AP. Do not
allow the Aruba AP 60/61 or its attachments to be
connected to or make contact with metal or power outlets
on a different electrical ground than the device to which it
is connected. Also, never connect the AP or Mobility
Controller to external storm grounding sources.
C AUTION : To prevent personal injury or damage to equipment,
use only the AC power adapter certified for this device
in the country where it is used.
