All Aruba access points should be professionally installed by an Aruba Certified Mobility Professional (ACMP). The installer is
responsible for ensuring that grounding is available and meets applicable national and electrical codes.
Tous les points d'accès Aruba doivent impérativement être installés par un professionnel agréé. Ce dernier doit s'assurer
que l'appareil est mis à la terre et que le circuit de mise à la terre est conforme aux codes électriques nationaux en vigueur.
Electrical
Ethernet:
One 100/1000 Base-T auto-sensing Ethernet RJ45 interface
Power over Ethernet IEEE 802.3at 56VDC (nominal) and 802.3af 48VDC (nominal).
Power:
Maximum (worst-case) power consumption: 13.5W (802.3af PoE) or 12W (DC)
Excludes power consumed by external USB device (and internal overhead); this could add up
to 6W (PoE) or 5.5W (DC) for 5W/1A USB device
Direct DC source: 12Vdc nominal, +/- 5%
Power over Ethernet (PoE): 802.3at and 802.3af complaint source
Connect only to IEC 60950-1 or IEC 60601-1 3rd edition products and power sources.
If a power adapter other than the Aruba-approved adapter is used in the US or Canada, it should be NRTL listed, with an
output rated 12Vdc, minimum 2A, marked “LPS” and “Class 2”, and suitable for plugging into a standard power receptacle in
the US and Canada.

RF Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits. This equipment should
be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 7.87 inches (20cm) between the radiator and your body for 2.4 GHz
and 5 GHz operations. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
Déclaration sur les limites d'exposition aux radiofréquences :cet équipement est conforme aux limites d'exposition aux
rayonnements radioélectriques spécifiées par la FCC. Il doit être installé et utilisé à une distance minimale de 20 cm par
rapport à votre corps pour les fréquences de 2,4 et 5 GHz. Cet émetteur-récepteur ne doit pas être utilisé ou situé à
proximité d'autres antennes ou émetteurs-récepteurs.
The device could automatically discontinue transmission in case of absence of information to transmit, or
operational failure. Note that this is not intended to prohibit transmission of control or signaling information
or the use of repetitive codes where required by the technology.
FCC Class B Part 15
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference harmful to radio communications.
Operation is subject to the following conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference.
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
If this equipment does cause interference, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help.
Users are advised that high power Radars are allocated as primary users of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850
MHz and these Radars could cause interference and/or damage to Licensed Exempt WLAN devices.
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate this equipment.
Toute modification effectuée sur cet équipement sans l'autorisation expresse de la partie responsable de la conformité est
susceptible d'annuler son droit d'utilisation.
Canada
Complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled
“Digital Apparatus,” CAN ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B).
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or
lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the
antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (E.I.R.P.) does not exceed the
limit necessary for successful communication.
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
