WAC510 LAN Power
Currently have the WAC510 Access Point set up. The WAN ethernet is connect to my modem and is not using POE, so I had to plug the access point using the 12v adapter. My question though, is if I connect an ethernet cable to the LAN port, will that be sending out power to the device it's connected to? I'm connecting it to an NVR security camera system and I don't want to short out anything. So basically does the LAN port send out POE/if it does can I turn that off?
Hi Constantius,

WAC510 is a powered device. It does not provide any power to its port but it can receive power from a power source equipment.
