Hey /g/ convince me to not buy this tonight. I'm building a small LAN. Ciscofags plz halp. Is this a good access point?
If I remember well, some cisco APs have shit authentication. Look that up if it matters to you.
OP here. Bumping with a question. Anyone know where to find power cables for these guys?

Yes that is a decent AP. Just remember you need to flash it to an autonomous image.
For power either use PoE or ebay again for the power adapter. They are around $18.

Its $20. I dont know what this is, but buy it

>48 Port Switch powering Cisco AP directly:
>1x Power Cable for Switch
>1x cat Cable between switch and AP
1+1=2
>POE Injector
>1x Power Cable for Injector
>2x cat cable into and out of the Injector
1+2=3
I have a math degree, but I might be a bit rusty(degrees don't mean anything anyways right?). Please correct me if i'm wrong but I count an extra cable in the PoE Injector situation.

Where would I find a autonomous image? Thank you btw!
Does it at least support 300Mbps N?
Also how to PoE? What adapter / how to wire?
>>53726793
Yes
>>53724994
I have a Cisco Catalyst 2950 Switch 24 ports
How do I know if it is a PoE switch?
like others said you will need to get it into autonomous mode since you do not have a controller.
and since you asked if a fucking 2950 is poe instead of finding out yourself, you obviously have no fucking god damn clue what you are doing.
fuck off

Heya bud. Appreciate the help. I ask questions of those who know more than me, so that they might be answered. Its past your bedtime kiddo. You fuck off
>>53726892
That switch is not PoE capable, you'll have to use an injector.
>>53727069
Samefagging. If you want to know how, it literally tells you either in the manual, on the face of the switch, or just a plain google search.
Thanks so far guys. I'm gonna get this PoE.
Well two of them. And I bought two APs. Couldn't thank you enough. Also, don't know if this is important, but I have 12.1 running on my router and switch. Will I need to flash the APs with the same version?
