The ENET0 and ENET1 ports support PoE-in, allowing either port to draw power
from an 802.3at PoE+ source (recommended) or an 802.3af PoE source. When both
PoE and DC power sources are available, the access point will default to using the
DC power source.
The 320 Series access points have a single 12V/30W DC power jack socket to support
the AP-AC-12V30UN AC-to-DC adapter (sold separately).
Power Modes
The 320 Series access points can operate in two power modes. The modes are not
configurable and determined by the access point based on the amount of power
available.
The 320 Series access points operate without restrictions when powered by a DC or
802.3at PoE+ source.
When powered by an 802.3af PoE source, the following restrictions apply:
Second Ethernet port disabled
USB interface disabled
2.4 GHz in 1x1:1 mode

Verifying Pre-Installation Connectivity
Before installing access points in a network environment, make sure that they are able
to locate and connect to the controller after power on.
Specifically, you must verify the following conditions:
When connected to the network, each access point is assigned a valid IP address
Access points are able to locate the controller
Refer to the Quick Start Guide for instructions on locating and connecting to the
controller.
Pre-Installation Network Requirements
After WLAN planning is complete and the appropriate products and their placement
have been determined, the Dell controller(s) must be installed and initial setup
completed before the Dell access points are deployed.
For initial setup of the controller, refer to Quick Start Guide.
Identifying Specific Installation Locations
You can mount the 320 Series access point on a wall or on the ceiling. Use the access
point placement map generated by the Dell VisualRF Plan software application to
determine the proper installation location(s). Each location should be as close as
possible to the center of the intended coverage area and should be free from
obstructions or obvious sources of interference. These RF absorbers/reflectors/
interference sources will impact RF propagation and should be accounted for during
the planning phase and adjusted for in the RF plan.
Identifying Known RF Absorbers/Reflectors/Interference Sources
Identifying known RF absorbers, reflectors, and interference sources while in the field
during the installation phase is critical. Make sure that these sources are taken into
consideration when you attach an access point to its fixed location. Examples of
sources that degrade RF performance include:
Cement and brick
Objects that contain water
Metal
Microwave ovens
Wireless phones and headsets
Installing the Access Point
Using the Ceiling Rail Adapter
