3602 series APs and 4006 switches

[Louman6213]

Question is will POE on a 4006 switch handle the power requirements for the latest 3602 series APs.

Thanks

It will power the AP up, but if you have any of the 3602 modules, like the WSSI, AC or the 3G, you need 802.at or PoE+.

Example:

Power Draw	3600i/3600e with the WSSI module requires 17 W
Powering Options	3600 Series Access Point with the WSSI module • Enhanced Power over Ethernet (PoE): up to 20 W configurable on an Ethernet port basis • 802.3at PoE+: 25.5 W delivered to the Access Point • Cisco 3600 Series Power Injectors (AIR-PWRINJ4=) • Cisco 3600 Series Local Power Supply (AIR-PWR-B=)

Thanks,

Scott

Check the power supplies you have.  Some 4K PoE blades won't power up if you have the low-powered PS.

Access point power options: power supplied by the recommended external power supply (Cisco

AIR-PWR-B), a DC power supply, PoE from a network device, or a PoE power injector/hub

(usually located in a wiring closet).

The recommended external power supply for the access point is the Cisco AIR-PWR-B

power supply. The access point can also be powered by the following optional external

power sources:

– 1250 series access point power injector (AIR-PWRINJ4)

– Any 802.3af compliant power injector
