Compatibility of AP122 with Netgear POE switch that has IEEE 802.3af (DTE Power Via MDI)

[hsamarth1]

Hi, there is a Netgear POE switch on which Aerohive AP122 will be connected but the POE switch has IEEE 802.3af (DTE Power Via MDI) mentioned in its protocol, so will the AP122 be compatible to draw power from this switch?

Thanks Sam for confirming.

Thanks for your patience while we looked in to this for you, the DTW power via MDI should not matter to our devices, they will receive power from that switch.

Hi Sam,

Thanks for the response but does ​DTE Power Via MDI has anything to do with the compatibility??

The AP122 can work with af power, per the datasheet for that model, under the power section: https://www.aerohive.com/wp-content/uploads/Aerohive_Datasheet_AP122.pdf
