“With Adapter” / PoE Injector What That Usually Means
If the UAP‑AC‑PRO is sold with adapter, it generally includes:
-
A PoE injector (usually 48V passive or active) that supplies the correct voltage and current for the device. Often rated around 0.5A at 48V DC.
-
The included injector/adaptor allows you to power the AP if you do not already have a PoE switch or midspan injector capable of supplying the needed power.
Things to check when buying “with adapter”:
-
Confirm the adapter is Gigabit PoE injector (so that the AP’s Ethernet port still supports full 1 Gbps link speeds).
-
Confirm the adapter is 48V and supports either passive or the correct active PoE standard (802.3af or at) as needed. Using wrong voltage can damage the device.
-
Adapter should provide enough current (often ~0.5A) to cover the AP’s power needs, plus some margin. The AP’s typical consumption is ~9 W.
What It Means in Practice & Use Cases
-
This access point is well-suited for fairly high-throughput uses: streaming, many connected clients, large houses, small offices.
-
Because of dual‑band 3×3 MIMO, it gives better performance compared to 2×2 APs, especially for 5 GHz traffic.
-
If installed outdoors, it should be under cover (eaves or ceiling) to protect from direct exposure.
-
Use good quality cabling (shielded if exposed), and ensure the PoE injector or switch is good quality to avoid performance drops.
