VigorAP 920R/PR can be powered via the PoE input from an in-line power injector or a
suitably powered switch port.
Before powering VigorAP, you should:
Pay attention to local and national electrical codes.
Not place the power injector / VigorSwitch in outdoor environment without any
protection. Moisture might get into the power injector and cause a short circuit or
possible fire.
Not work on the system during periods of lighting activity to avoid the risk of electric
shock, and do not connect or disconnect the Ethernet cables under bad weather.
Below shows two examples of connecting power for VigorAP 920R and VigorAP 920PR.
