Ethernet Ports
2 Gigabit Ethernet ports with RJ45 connector type. One port to connect to the wired LAN and communicate with the Wi-Fi Cloud. This port can also be used to power the device using the 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE+) standard/802.3af Power over Ethernet(PoE). Using PoE results in limited feature functionality of the AP. Second port can be used for aggregation or wired extension of an SSID.
