Power On the Access Point

Power on the access point (AP) by plugging one end of the Ethernet cable into the PoE+ (802.3at) switch or injector and the other end into the LAN1 PoE+ port on the AP. Be sure to turn on the PoE+ source, or use a compatible power adapter (Arista SKU: PWR-AP-W4) to power the AP. The power adapter must be connected to a socket outlet with an grounded connection.

Note: Ifnot using PoE+,use only an AC power adapter supported by the AP.

Using the Access Point with a Power Adapter

Use a compatible power adapter (Arista SKU: PWR-AP-W4) to power the AP.

Warning: C-430 is intended to be supplied by approved external power source (UL listed/ IEC 60950-1/IEC 62368-1) whose output complies with ES1/SELV, PS2/LPS, output rating 12V DC, 3.3A minimum (for DC port) or 54V DC, 0.6A minimum (for PoE port), at an ambient temperature of 45°C, and at maximum altitude of 5000m. For any assistance, please contact your Arista representative.

The maximum altitude of operation for the power adapter is 5000m.

To power up the device with power adapter, perform the following steps:
  1. Plug the power cable into the DC power receptacle at the rear of the AP.
  2. Plug the other end of the power cable into an 110V~240V, 50/60 Hz AC power source.
  3. Wait until the AP LED indicators light up. Refer to the LED Indicator status table.
