If you are using Power over Ethernet (PoE), ensure that
the cable is connected to an appropriate port on your
FortiGate device or PoE injector.
Optionally, connect your device to a power outlet using
the optional power adapter.
Caution: Adequate grounding must be
provided to the FortiAP unit & the PoE injector,
in compliance with your local electrical code or
regulations.
Warning: This device supports 802.3af or 802.3at
(PoE) specification; it accepts power as a Powered
Device (PD) from a Power Sourcing Equipment
(PSE) such as a PoE injector. Do not use any PoE
injectors that are not 802.3af or 802.3at compliant
as they may damage your device.
