Overview of Cisco Aironet PoE Power Injector (AIR-PWRINJ6) | Refresh
The Cisco Aironet PoE Power Injector (AIR-PWRINJ6) is a single-port 802.3at injector built to power supported Cisco Aironet access points when PoE is not available on the switch. It makes deployment in offices, branches and remote network locations simpler by delivering up to 30 watts and passing Gigabit data plus power over standard Category 5 or better cabling. For Cisco Aironet wireless deployments, Cisco AIR-PWRINJ6 is intended to provide network teams with a straightforward PoE power injector option. It allows you to install compatible access points where coverage is required without having to rely only on a PoE-capable switch while maintaining simple cabling. Because the injector is meant to be used indoors and is not weatherproof, it works best in offices, network closets and other similar settings. The AIR-PWRINJ6 minimizes the need for electrical changes and speeds up access point installation by delivering power and data over a single Ethernet cable.
