Cisco Business 240AC Dual Band IEEE 802.11ac 1.69 Gbit/s Wireless Access Point - 2.40 GHz, 5 GHz - Internal - MIMO Technology - 2 X Network (RJ-45) - Gigabit Ethernet - 13.20 W - Ceiling Mountable

I have a couple of cisco devices that could benefit from POE injection, this one fit the bill perfectly with the level of power that it outputs for some of my heavier use Aruba Wireless APs. The great thing about these is you can just put it right in your DEMARC and then run a nice long run of Cat5e/6 to your endpoint equipment and fire it right up. Great to have and good quality!

First thing I will say is to check if this device is even compatible with what you want it to power. This device is great for powering up devices. I no longer have that extra clutter for power to my devices. The injector does a good job with powering my device. I had no issues with devices shutting off or having poor connection. In my case, I was able to power my access point in my house without needing to run that extra wire for power. I used a cisco access point and it works great. I am unsure how well it works for other brands. It is about the size of a laptop brick. It has a status LED light and does not require any setup other than plug it in. The device does get a little warm and is scratch prone but it does the job. It makes it easier to keep your cables from being overly cluttered while providing power to your device. This did just come in a simple plastic bag rather than box. It does come with everything but the ethernet cables so be aware of that. You will need to purchase that separately. Overall this is a good device to have, it is easy to setup, and it reduces my need for that extra power port for my access point.

This Cisco Business PoE Injector is a good way to add PoE devices to your network and provides ample power to supply several devices. Performance, value and build quality are good and the device is extremely simple to use. I would caution that the brick portion of this tends to get hot, especially if you have a few PoE devices running off of it. Overall, this is a high quality component to add PoE to your network. 4/5 stars.

This Cisco Business Power Over Ethernet Injector was designed to provide an alternative to external DC power. This device is compatible with Cisco Business Wireless 100 Series and 200 Series access points (CBW140AC-B, CBW240AC-B, and CBW145AC-B) and guarantees 15-watts of power output. What I liked most about this Cisco Business Power Over Ethernet Injector was: - Usefulness - Compatibility - Performance What I liked least about this Cisco Business Power Over Ethernet Injector was: - The product description videos. They're absolutely unrelated to this device. Overall, if you need to get APs installed inside a structure that demands some flexibility this Cisco Business Power Over Ethernet Injector should come in handy for your compatible devices. As long as you enter this purchase with a specific goal in mind and have compatible Cisco products it should work fine. Just do yourself a favor and skip the videos. 5.0 out of 5.0

This PoE injector is designed to work with Cisco wireless access points, and I used it to provide power to a CBW140AC access point. It was dead simple to connect (just be sure you have the “switch” port running back to your switch (or router/switch) and your “AP” port connected to your access point). Plug in the power, and you’re good to go. The device accepted the connection and is running now just as designed. There are any number of PoE injectors or PoE switches available. This one was designed with the power needs of these Cisco access points in mind. So if you don’t mind paying for that security, these will serve you well.
