Hardware variants
AP-503: Campus AP platform, integrated antennas
Wi-Fi antennas
AP-503: Integrated downtilt omni-directional antennas for 2x2 MIMO with peak antenna gain of 1.7dBi in 2.4 GHz and 4.8 dBi in 5 GHz. Built-in antennas are optimized for horizontal ceiling mounted orientation of the AP. The downtilt angle for maximum gain is roughly 30 degrees.
  • Combining the patterns of each of the antennas of the MIMO radios, the peak gain of the combined, average pattern is 1.5 dBi in 2.4 GHz and 3.9 dBi in 5 GHz.
Power sources and power consumption
  • The AP supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) on port E0
  • Power sources are sold separately; see the 503 Series Ordering Guide for details
  • Maximum (worst-case) power consumption: 10.9W
  • Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in idle mode: 4.7W
  • Both numbers assume no power is drawn from the USB interface
    • Drawing 0.5W from the USB interface increases max AP power consumption by up to 0.7W
Mounting details
A generic mount bracket to attach the AP-503 to suspended ceiling rails ships with the AP. Alternate or spare brackets can be ordered separately; see the 503 Series Ordering Guide for details.
Reliability
Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF): 930khrs (106yrs) at +25C operating temperature.
