Essentials WiFi 6 AX4200 Dual Band Multi-Gig Access Point Model WAX220 Set up the AP in your network The AP is intended to function as a WiFi AP in your existing network. The following sections describe how you can set up the AP in your network: • Set up the AP with a PoE+ network connection • Set up the AP with a non-PoE network connection To set up your AP, follow the procedure in one of these sections. Set up the AP with a PoE+ network connection You can connect the AP to a Power over Ethernet plus (PoE+) switch in your network. The switch must be capable of providing PoE+ (802.3at) power and must be connected to a network router that is connected to the Internet. If you use a PoE+ connection, the AP does not require a power adapter. Figure 4. Set up the AP with a PoE+ connection to your network Note: The LAN/PoE+ port supports Ethernet speeds up to 2.5 Gbps. The previous figure shows a NETGEAR MS510TXPP switch, which supports speeds of 2.5 Gbps. However, if your Internet connection, modem, or switch supports a maximum speed of 1 Gbps (which is a common speed), the AP LAN connection functions at 1 Gbps. To set up the AP with a PoE+ connection to your network: 1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN/PoE+ port on the AP. 2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a switch that is connected to your network and to the Internet. Connect the cable to a PoE+ port on a PoE+ (802.3at) switch. Do not use a PoE (803.2.af) switch because the provided power is insufficient. Installation and Initial Login 14 User Manual
