voyant alim orange fixe sur access point WAX630

Bonjour, suite au branchement de mon point d'accès WAX630 le voyant alim/cloud reste continuellement orange fixe.

 

 Il est relié à une Freebox Delta par l'intermédiaire d'un switch Netgear GS305Pv2 avec un cable neuf CAT7 d'une quinzaine de mètres.

 

Les liaisons wifi ont l'air de fonctionner mais ce voyant orange fixe signale certainement un problème, mais lequel? et comment le résoudre?

 

Merci pour vos réponses

    The access point functions as a PoE PD and the Power/Cloud LED remains solid amber


    When you connect the access point to a power source, the Power/Cloud LED lights
    solid amber initially, then blinks amber slowly, and finally turns solid green or solid blue,
    indicating that the startup procedure is complete and the access point is ready.
    If the access point functions as a PoE PD and the Power/Cloud LED remains solid amber
    after five minutes, the access point might not be receiving power at the required 802.3bt
    (PoE++) level. For example, this situation might occur if the access point is connected
    to a switch that provides only 802.3at (PoE+) rather than 802.3bt (PoE++).

     

    Note: If the access point receives power at the 802.3at (PoE+) level, the access point
    limits its operation to 2x2 streams for 2.4 GHz radio and 5 GHz low band radio, which
    results in half the peak throughput for these two radios. If the access point receives
    power at the 802.3af (PoE) level, the 2.4 GHz radio and 5 GHz low band radios remain
    off. In either case, the 5 GHz high band radio functions normally.
    Do the following:
    1. Disconnect and reconnect the Ethernet cable at the LAN 1/PoE++ port on the access
    point and at the 802.3bt (PoE++) port on the PoE++ switch.
    The access point restarts.
    2. If the Power/Cloud LED remains solid amber after five minutes, check to see why
    the PoE++ switch cannot provide sufficient PoE power to the access point.
    Most likely, the PoE power budget of the PoE++ switch is oversubscribed and you
    might need to disconnect another PoE device from the PoE++ switch to make
    sufficient PoE power available for the access point.


    If the error persists, see Power/Cloud LED remains solid amber on page 227

    Voila, cette switch est sulement 802.3af (PoE) et 802.3at (PoE+) - ces 30 W suffit pas pour cette WAX630, pourtant la signalisation est 802.3at (25.5W max).

      Thanks a lot for your precise and precious answer... I am going to get a new switch.
