Is it possible to connect Power supply and PoE at the same time?

If yes, which has priority?

NWA5123-AC-HD is managed and connected to a USG 110. PoE injection came from a POE12-HP

    Hi @Tzunami ,

    Absolutely, you can indeed connect both the power supply and PoE (Power over Ethernet) simultaneously to your NWA5123-AC HD access point. When both power sources are connected, the power adapter takes priority over PoE. In other words, the device will draw power from the power adaptor if it is connected, and only if the power adaptor is not connected will it use the PoE source.
