- Note that your question is in essence of topic , when you buy a product you are supposed to acquire basic knowledge about it too e.g. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWs9LFdgRrU , https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless/embedded-wireless-controller-on-catalyst-access-points/215303-embedded-wireless-controller-conversion.html , https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/wireless/catalyst-9115ax-series-access-points/products-installation-guides-list.html

Thank you.

Question: Is it available in German ?

Question: Is the controller included in the 9115AXI-E ? - As I know it is.

In the first video the LED comes up to stay green. But my device is changing "red-out-green-out/pause".

I have an injector for PoE - there is an RJ45 for PoE and an RJ45 for LAN. The PoE-cable is switched to the 9115.

The 9115 comes up and gets flashing in the described way. Is there something wrong ?

- I think it (still) has a powering problem. Probably insufficient power. Attach a console and scrutinize the boot process, or else connect (SSH) just after boot and issue the command show logging , look for errors related to power.

Like what @Mark Elsen mentioned, attach the output from the console. That will show you what is wrong. if you don’t have a co troller, you need to make sure the ap is EWC capable. This means that the EWC image is installed.
Also take a look at this for reference for identifying what image is on the ap and how to convert it to EWC if needed.
