Zyxel 802.11ax access points, such as the NWA50AX and WAX655E, are designed to be powered using Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology.

This allows them to receive both power and data through a single Ethernet cable.

Here's how you can connect a Zyxel 802.11ax AP with PoE technology:

-Using a PoE Switch: The most common method is to connect your Zyxel 802.11ax AP to a PoE-capable switch.

The switch will provide both power and data to the AP through the Ethernet cable.

-Using a PoE Injector: If your existing switch does not support PoE, you can use a Zyxel PoE injector, such as the PoE12-HP, which is often suggested for specific AP models like the NWA210AX.

The PoE injector will supply power to the AP while the data connection still comes from your network.
