[Carlos Yahir Ramirez Huerta]

Hi,

is it possible to connect this AP directly to the Switch 2960S?

Thanks!!

Best Regards!!

No, It is always recommended to use 1500 power injector to power these APs.

"To provide inline PoE, you must use the 1500 power injector (AIR-PWRINJ1500-2=). Other power injectors, PoE switches, and 802.3af power sources cannot provide adequate power, which may cause the access point to malfunction and cause possible over-current conditions at the power source."

Above is forom the 1550 getting started guide

The 1550 series access point supports these power sources:

•AC power—100 to 480 VAC, models 1552E and 1552EU access points, pole-mount configuration

•AC power—100 to 277 VAC, model 1552I access point

•Power-over-Cable (POC)—40 to 90 VAC, quasi-square wave AC, models 1552C and 1552CU (standard power source for the cable modem configuration)

•External 12 VDC

•Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)—56 VDC power injector (AIR-PWRINJ1500-2=), only on models 1552E and 1552EU access points

•Internal 6 ampere-hour battery backup—only for the 1552E and 1552EUaccess point

The 1550 series access point can be connected to more than one power source. The access point detects available input sources and switches to the preferred power source using the following prioritization:

•AC power or POC power

•External 12-VDC power

•Power injector PoE power

•Internal battery power
