Question about Cisco Business Wireless 143ACM Power Supply

[sai-mike]

I don't see anything in the specs about the Wireless Mesh Extender USB power supplies.  Is this a power module with a separate USB Cable?  What is the length of the cable?  What are the connectors on the cable in case I need a longer cable?

Hi,

Type B USB Port (Power Supply) supported on Cisco Business 143AC Mesh Extender as per the quick start guide.

Please refer the quick start guide for Cisco Business 143AC Mesh Extender https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/wireless/access_point/csbap/CBW143/QSG/78-101536-01A0_Final.pdf

Also, please refer the “Mounting CBW143AC” section in Cisco Business Access Point Administration Guide, Version 10.4.1.0 (page 145 and 146) regarding the Power Supply options CBW143AC.

Note: Cisco recommends that you use only the Cisco supplied AC-USB adapter, for powering the AP through the USB port. Other power supply devices which do not meet the specifications of the Cisco supplied device, can cause silent reboots or crashes.

I already looked at noth of those documents.  There is nothing in them about the construction of the power supply, the cord length, etc.  That is why I posted this question in the forum.

Hi sai-mike,

Here is more information about the power supply.

The model is WB-10E05R and the USB cable is 1.5 m. One type is fixed pigtail, other side is Micro-B USB. AP side is also Micro-B USB.

We will update the documentation accordingly so it will be accessible to everyone.

Hope that helps.

Regards,

Martin
