Aironet 1310 using Peap Auth and AES encryption??

I have 2 1310 wireless briges in a point to point configuration with the root bridge acting as my ACS server..
I am currently running Leap Authentication and with Wep encryption but would like to upgrade this to use Peap and AES if possible??
I'm wondering if anyone has upgraded their solution to this type of encryption?
thanks

What IOS version are you running ? 12.4(25d)JA is the last supported IOS version for this product. So you should go with that image.
If you are using AP as AAA server, then I think only EAP-FAST, LEAP & MAC authentication is supported. Not anything else.
Here is WGB (workgroup bridge) configuration with EAP-FAST & you can get an idea how to configure EAP-FAST if you choose to. (In your case you have to configure root bridge & non-root bridge in two respective AP)

  • Frequent disconnect using peap wpa2 with aes and tkip

    I got frequent disconnect for the users on wireless using peap wpa2 with aes and tkip.
    My network is setup with :
    -Wireless controller 4404
    -ACS 4.0
    -28 access point 1131g
    -Peap authentication with active directory windows 2003
    -windows xp - mschap2 with aes- tkip
    when i check only aes on the wireless controller 4404 the network user are able work in a stable condition

    This might similar to the bug where Wireless phones dont associate if WPA2 is configured with both AES/TKIP. In this case try to upgrade the controller.

  • Apple MAC Cannot Connect on Wireless Using PEAP Auth

    I have a WLAN setup using the Cisco WiSM, Cisco ACS 4.1.3 as the Radius Server. We are using PEAP as the WLAN Security. THe issue is that all the clients who have Windows OS are able to connect to the WLAN and PEAP works fine.However the users who have Apple MAC OS are unable to connect to the WLAN that has PEAP as the Security setting. The MAC has OS 10.5.6 and I tried upgrading the image however the prob persists. On the ACS server I get in the Failed Log as "Internal Error".
    Can someone help what does the Error mean , and any resolution for the issue.

    Can you provide some detail about how you created the user profile on the Mac? Also - did you put the ACS server's certificate into the Mac's System store so that the Mac will trust the ACS server (or configure the PEAP profile on the Mac to ignore the ACS server's certificate)?

  • How can I deploy EFS using Group Policy and automatically encrypt computers for ALL users who login?

  • How to config Autonomous AP 1242/1252 the WPA2 and AES encryption

    Hi Guys,
    Do you know how to configure the autonomous AP1242 and AP1252 use new authentication way: WPA2 and encryption as AES to support 11n ?
    right now, our AP only configure the SSID as WH001 as network access.
    dot11 ssid WH001
       authentication open eap ea1
       authentication network-eap ea1
       accounting ac1
    How about the new SSID WH003 (new 11n)
    dot11 ssid WH003
      authenticaion ?
      authentication?
      account?
    interface Dot11Radio0
    no ip address
    no ip route-cache
    encryption mode wep mandatory
    encryption mode? 
    ssid WH001
    ssid WH003
    channel 2437

    Well the 1242 doesn't support 802.11n. Here is a link to configure 802.11n on an ap that supports 802.11n like the 1252.

  • AIRONET 1310 BRIDGE CONFIGURATION

    Hi I desperately need help. I am trying to configure 2 Aironet 1310s as Root bridge and non-Root bridge. When I configure the root bridge the wireless interface remains up.When I try to configure the non-root bridge the AP/Bridge will assume the role of non-root bridge and immediately disable the wireless interface with line potocol down .I tried swapping the roles and still get the same proble. I am running IOS version 12.4(10b)JA

    Hi
    I finally made a breakthrough. The issue here is the internal antannae. It seems it does not work well. I tried to use the antannae from the linksys wireless router and enabled them, I one time got the radios associate. I connected to the network and was able to ping the Pcs on each end of the network.
    Now what I am interested in finding out is why those radios cannot work with the internal antannae. The model I have is AIR-BR-1310-E-K9-R.Is this designed to come with an internal antanna. I was able to pick one bar from my laptop from within 5 metres from the bridge. so what is the issue with these radios.

  • Provider for VIA's x86 hardware RNG and AES

    Hello.
    For those who are running Java (under Windows or Linux) on a modern VIA processor, you might be interested in downloading this provider, which uses the hardware for true random number generation and AES encryption/decryption.
    Depending on the data size, encryption mode, and processor, AES encryption is 15 to 90 times faster than the default Sun provider.
    The provider is free and can be downloaded here: http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=22&DSCat=162&DCatType=1
    A forthcoming version will add support for the newest security features of the processor, hardware SHA-1 and SHA-256 and hardware Montgomery Multiply.
    Kevin

    Nope, that doesn't work either.
    For what it's worth, I always got the "Unknown Card-Ids" message, even with the Testing version of Xorg 7, and with Xorg 6.8.2 - and AGPDMA works perfectly for both of those.
    Now, I tried doing X -configure to create the config file and not getting rid of the vendor/model "information":
    VendorName "Unknown Vendor"
    BoardName "Unknown Board"
    That gets rid of the "failed to initialize ring buffer" error, but AGPDMA is still not enabled:
    Current Operating System: Linux localhost 2.6.16-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 12 18:59:19 CEST 2006 i686
    (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
    (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
    (EE) VIA(0): Unknown Card-Ids (1565|1200), report this to the driver maintainer ASAP
    (EE) VIA(0): [drm] drmAgpAcquire failed 1023
    And now, here's something I should have noticed a while ago... Check out these (edited for clarity) screenshots of xorgcfg in textmode:
    In Xorg 6.8.x, VIA cards were listed where the red line is pointing. Now they're not listed there, or anywhere in xorgcfg.
    Likewise, the "via" driver is simply not listed; again, it was in Xorg 6.8.x, even after the installation of the necessary DRI snapshots for VIA hardware.
    Note that the above is observable with any of the available Unichrome drivers installed - xf86-video-via, xf86-video-unichrome, and xf86-video-openchrome all produce the same results.
    Also, I can't confirm this for xorgcfg's graphical mode, for the simple reason that the graphical mode just crashes:
    [root@localhost ~]# xorgcfg
    Warning: Cannot convert string "menu10" to type Pixmap
    Warning: Cannot convert string "menu10" to type Pixmap
    Can't create rules structure
    Think this strange stuff has any bearing on the AGPDMA situation?

  • Upgrade AP o LAP Aironet 1310

  • AES Encryption - Encrypted value lengths

    HI all -
    I am attempting to use CF 8's AES encryption feature, and
    have not found a critical piece of info in the docs to enable me to
    progress.
    I am using the function to encrypt a password that can be
    from 6 to 16 characters long, which will be stored in a database. I
    am using generateSecretKey("AES"), and that gives me a 24 character
    key that I'm storing for future decryption use. I find that when I
    use the key to encrypt a 6 character password the resulting
    encrypted string is 32 characters long, but when I encrypt a 16
    character password I get a 64 character encrypted string. This is
    the case whether I specify "HEX" or "UU" as the encoding.
    Without knowing how the length of the resulting encoded
    string is determined, I cannot know how large to make my database
    column. (MySQL's AES encryption gives the formula 16 ×
    (trunc(string_length / 16) + 1) to arrive at the resulting string's
    length, but that formula doesn't yield the results I'm seeing in
    CFMX). Can anyone point me to a doc, or explain to me how to
    determine the column length for storing the resulting encrypted
    value?

    No. Only things like key, encoding and string size should
    matter. If the encoding is "hex", 1-15 characters should produce
    size 32, 16-31 characters should produce 64, etcetera. Unless space
    is at a premium, you could always increase the field size if that
    makes you feel more comfortable.
    Well, the results are dictated by the AES standard and basic
    string encoding rules, not CF. I highly doubt either one is going
    to change any time soon ;-) I agree documentation is good. However,
    unlike aes_encrypt, the encrypt function supports many different
    algorithms. Most of which have a distinct set of rules. So it would
    probably be difficult to provide accurate information about all of
    them. Especially as the specifications for each one alone probably
    spans volumes ;-)

  • Can't open a specific wesite with AES encryption on

    WRT54GX2 router  set up with WPA and AES encryption, will not open a website that I know is working (it's my ISP, webmail site).  When I change to TKIP the site opens normally, but my wireless printer then drops off the network.  Any one have a fix?

    I agree with toomanydonuts suggestion. You can try the steps which toomanydonuts has mentioned and i think that will make your computer and printer work wirelessly.

  • Basic auth and MSIE

    Hi,
    I'm using basic auth and used to send username/password with
    the URL to authenticate from another webserver (with some other
    kind of authentication), but - as you know - Microsoft doesn't
    support that any longer and so this works for some other
    webclients but not for IE (or only with a patch, that isn't installed
    everywhere).
    Now I have seen that for Apache there is a module called
    mod_auth_cookie to fake that kind of implicit authentification.
    My Question: has anybody done this for SJWS or can't that
    be done?

  • WLC 5508 Web Auth and EAP / PEAP

       Morning all, I'm looking for some clarification.
    Current setup:
    I work in a school, a few years age I installed a 4400 WLC and several APs as a proof of concept exercise to see whether wireless technology would be of benefit to teaching and learning. It was deemed to be so.
    This summer I installed 2 x 5508 WLCs and increased AP coverage to 50 - copied over the configs from the old controller - all works fine.
    Currently only the staff can access the WLANs with the exception of a public WLAN in the canteen area.
    Because there are a limited number of devices, WPA2 in conjunction with MAC filtering was used. However the school wants to open the wireless network to all of the students - potentially this means up to 1000 devices that will no doubt change on a regular basis so MAC filtering is out.
    In line with child protection policies I need an 'auditable' trail when students access wireless resources.
    Planned setup:
    I have setup a test WLAN that uses Web Auth - the WLC is configured to pass authentication requests  ( through an ASA ) onto a RADIUS server which is tied into AD. I have a CA setup as well as a NAP server.
    There is no layer 2 security set on the test WLAN and layer 3 is just web authentication. From any mobile device I can authenticate against AD and gain access to the Internet.
    Clarification:
    With no layer 2 security the WLAN is exposed so I need to introduce some form of end to end encryption - so I am looking at deploying EAP / PEAP.
    Would the introduction of EAP / PEAP keep the network as secure as if I was using WPA2 ?
    Many thanks.

    If you are web authentication you cannot use dot1x as L2 security , so EAP is not an option.
    But you can use preshared security , like WPA2 AES with web auth to insure that the traffic is encrypted.
    or you can define a wlan profile with dot1x security on l2 and nothing on l3 , by doing so you would definetely hit the utmost security poossible.
    Check the following link which contain couple of EAP config examples:

  • Enable AES encryption on 1310 Wireless bridge

         Hi All,
        I have requirment to enable the AES encryption on the management VLAN  traffic  between connected root and non root bridges . can any one share the configuration guidelines please ??
    below is the network setup  .
    Router<---->SW1 ( main office)--> Root-bridge < ---------->non root-bride------SW2 ( remote end site)
    Apart from the specific configuration on the wireless bridge is any extra configuration required on the Switch interfaces??
    Regards

    Hello,
    1. Make sure you are running version 12.3(7)JA or later since WPA2/AES was not always available for the 1310.
    2. How do you currently have the root/non-root configured?
    Ideally, adding AES shoudl be fairly straight forward.  Keep in mind we recommend using WPA2 with AES.

  • System encryption using LUKS and GPG encrypted keys for arch linux

    Update: As of 2012-03-28, arch changed from gnupg 1.4 to 2.x which uses pinentry for the password dialog. The "etwo" hook described here doesn't work with gnupg 2. Either use the openssl hook below or use a statically compiled version of gnupg 1.4.
    Update: As of 2012-12-19, the mkinitcpio is not called during boot, unless the "install" file for the hook contains "add_runscript". This resulted in an unbootable system for me. Also, the method name was changed from install () to build ().
    Update: 2013-01-13: Updated the hook files using the corrections by Deth.
    Note: This guide is a bit dated now, in particular the arch installation might be different now. But essentially, the approach stays the same. Please also take a look at the posts further down, specifically the alternative hooks that use openssl.
    I always wanted to set up a fully encrypted arch linux server that uses gpg encrypted keyfiles on an external usb stick and luks for root filesystem encryption. I already did it once in gentoo using this guide. For arch, I had to play alot with initcpio hooks and after one day of experimentation, I finally got it working. I wrote a little guide for myself which I'm going to share here for anyone that might be interested. There might be better or easier ways, like I said this is just how I did it. I hope it might help someone else. Constructive feedback is always welcome
    Intro
    Using arch linux mkinitcpio's encrypt hook, one can easily use encrypted root partitions with LUKS. It's also possible to use key files stored on an external drive, like an usb stick. However, if someone steals your usb stick, he can just copy the key and potentially access the system. I wanted to have a little extra security by additionally encrypting the key file with gpg using a symmetric cipher and a passphrase.
    Since the encrypt hook doesn't support this scenario, I created a modifed hook called “etwo” (silly name I know, it was the first thing that came to my mind). It will simply look if the key file has the extension .gpg and, if yes, use gpg to decrypt it, then pipe the result into cryptsetup.
    Conventions
    In this short guide, I use the following disk/partition names:
    /dev/sda: is the hard disk that will contain an encrypted swap (/dev/sda1), /var (/dev/sda2) and root (/dev/sda3) partition.
    /dev/sdb is the usb stick that will contain the gpg encrypted luks keys, the kernel and grub. It will have one partition /dev/sdb1 formatted with ext2.
    /dev/mapper/root, /dev/mapper/swap and /dev/mapper/var will be the encrypted devices.
    Credits
    Thanks to the authors of SECURITY_System_Encryption_DM-Crypt_with_LUKS (gentoo wiki), System Encryption with LUKS (arch wiki), mkinitcpio (arch wiki) and Early Userspace in Arch Linux (/dev/brain0 blog)!
    Guide
    1. Boot the arch live cd
    I had to use a newer testing version, because the 2010.05 cd came with a broken gpg. You can download one here: http://releng.archlinux.org/isos/. I chose the “core“ version. Go ahead and boot the live cd, but don't start the setup yet.
    2. Set keymap
    Use km to set your keymap. This is important for non-qwerty keyboards to avoid suprises with passphrases...
    3. Wipe your discs
    ATTENTION: this will DELETE everything on /dev/sda and /dev/sdb forever! Do not blame me for any lost data!
    Before encrypting the hard disc, it has to be completely wiped and overwritten with random data. I used shred for this. Others use badblocks or dd with /dev/urandom. Either way, this will take a long time, depending on the size of your disc. I also wiped my usb stick just to be sure.
    shred -v /dev/sda
    shred -v /dev/sdb
    4. Partitioning
    Fire up fdisk and create the following partitions:
    /dev/sda1, type linux swap.
    /dev/sda2: type linux
    /dev/sda3: type linux
    /dev/sdb1, type linux
    Of course you can choose a different layout, this is just how I did it. Keep in mind that only the root filesystem will be decrypted by the initcpio. The rest will be decypted during normal init boot using /etc/crypttab, the keys being somewhere on the root filesystem.
    5. Format  and mount the usb stick
    Create an ext2 filesystem on /dev/sdb1:
    mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdb1
    mkdir /root/usb
    mount /dev/sdb1 /root/usb
    cd /root/usb # this will be our working directory for now.
    Do not mount anything to /mnt, because the arch installer will use that directory later to mount the encrypted root filesystem.
    6. Configure the network (if not already done automatically)
    ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
    route add default gw 192.168.0.1
    echo "nameserver 192.168.0.1" >> /etc/resolv.conf
    (this is just an example, your mileage may vary)
    7. Install gnupg
    pacman -Sy
    pacman -S gnupg
    Verify that gnupg works by launching gpg.
    8. Create the keys
    Just to be sure, make sure swap is off:
    cat /proc/swaps
    should return no entries.
    Create gpg encrypted keys (remember, we're still in our working dir /root/usb):
    dd if=/dev/urandom bs=512 count=4 | gpg -v --cipher-algo aes256 --digest-algo sha512 -c -a > root.gpg
    dd if=/dev/urandom bs=512 count=4 | gpg -v --cipher-algo aes256 --digest-algo sha512 -c -a > var.gpg
    Choose a strong password!!
    Don't do this in two steps, e.g don't do dd to a file and then gpg on that file. The key should never be stored in plain text on an unencrypted device, except if that device is wiped on system restart (ramfs)!
    Note that the default cipher for gpg is cast5, I just chose to use a different one.
    9. Create the encrypted devices with cryptsetup
    Create encrypted swap:
    cryptsetup -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 -h whirlpool -d /dev/urandom create swap /dev/sda1
    You should see /dev/mapper/swap now. Don't format nor turn it on for now. This will be done by the arch installer.
    Important: From the Cryptsetup 1.1.2 Release notes:
    Cryptsetup can accept passphrase on stdin (standard input). Handling of new line (\n) character is defined by input specification:
        if keyfile is specified as "-" (using --key-file=- or by positional argument in luksFormat and luksAddKey, like cat file | cryptsetup --key-file=- <action> ), input is processed
          as normal binary file and no new line is interpreted.
        if there is no key file specification (with default input from stdin pipe like echo passphrase | cryptsetup <action> ) input is processed as input from terminal, reading will
          stop after new line is detected.
    If I understand this correctly, since the randomly generated key can contain a newline early on, piping the key into cryptsetup without specifying --key-file=- could result in a big part of the key to be ignored by cryptsetup. Example: if the random key was "foo\nandsomemorebaratheendofthekey", piping it directly into cryptsetup without --key-file=- would result in cryptsetup using only "foo" as key which would have big security implications. We should therefor ALWAYS pipe the key into cryptsetup using --key-file=- which ignores newlines.
    gpg -q -d root.gpg 2>/dev/null | cryptsetup -v -–key-file=- -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 -h whirlpool luksFormat /dev/sda3
    gpg -q -d var.gpg 2>/dev/null | cryptsetup -v –-key-file=- -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 -h whirlpool -v luksFormat /dev/sda2
    Check for any errors.
    10. Open the luks devices
    gpg -d root.gpg 2>/dev/null | cryptsetup -v –-key-file=- luksOpen /dev/sda3 root
    gpg -d var.gpg 2>/dev/null | cryptsetup -v –-key-file=- luksOpen /dev/sda2 var
    If you see /dev/mapper/root and /dev/mapper/var now, everything is ok.
    11. Start the installer /arch/setup
    Follow steps 1 to 3.
    At step 4 (Prepare hard drive(s), select “3 – Manually Configure block devices, filesystems and mountpoints. Choose /dev/sdb1 (the usb stick) as /boot, /dev/mapper/swap for swap, /dev/mapper/root for / and /dev/mapper/var for /var.
    Format all drives (choose “yes” when asked “do you want to have this filesystem (re)created”) EXCEPT for /dev/sdb1, choose “no”. Choose the correct filesystem for /dev/sdb1, ext2 in my case. Use swap for /dev/mapper/swap. For the rest, I chose ext4.
    Select DONE to start formatting.
    At step 5 (Select packages), select grub as boot loader. Select the base group. Add mkinitcpio.
    Start step 6 (Install packages).
    Go to step 7 (Configure System).
    By sure to set the correct KEYMAP, LOCALE and TIMEZONE in /etc/rc.conf.
    Edit /etc/fstab:
    /dev/mapper/root / ext4 defaults 0 1
    /dev/mapper/swap swap swap defaults 0 0
    /dev/mapper/var /var ext4 defaults 0 1
    # /dev/sdb1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
    Configure the rest normally. When you're done, setup will launch mkinitcpio. We'll manually launch this again later.
    Go to step 8 (install boot loader).
    Be sure to change the kernel line in menu.lst:
    kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/mapper/root cryptdevice=/dev/sda3:root cryptkey=/dev/sdb1:ext2:/root.gpg
    Don't forget the :root suffix in cryptdevice!
    Also, my root line was set to (hd1,0). Had to change that to
    root (hd0,0)
    Install grub to /dev/sdb (the usb stick).
    Now, we can exit the installer.
    12. Install mkinitcpio with the etwo hook.
    Create /mnt/lib/initcpio/hooks/etwo:
    #!/usr/bin/ash
    run_hook() {
    /sbin/modprobe -a -q dm-crypt >/dev/null 2>&1
    if [ -e "/sys/class/misc/device-mapper" ]; then
    if [ ! -e "/dev/mapper/control" ]; then
    /bin/mknod "/dev/mapper/control" c $(cat /sys/class/misc/device-mapper/dev | sed 's|:| |')
    fi
    [ "${quiet}" = "y" ] && CSQUIET=">/dev/null"
    # Get keyfile if specified
    ckeyfile="/crypto_keyfile"
    usegpg="n"
    if [ "x${cryptkey}" != "x" ]; then
    ckdev="$(echo "${cryptkey}" | cut -d: -f1)"
    ckarg1="$(echo "${cryptkey}" | cut -d: -f2)"
    ckarg2="$(echo "${cryptkey}" | cut -d: -f3)"
    if poll_device "${ckdev}" ${rootdelay}; then

    This hook allows for an encrypted root device with support for gpg encrypted key files.
    To use gpg, the key file must have the extension .gpg and you have to install gpg and add /usr/bin/gpg
    to your BINARIES var in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf.
    HELPEOF
    Edit /mnt/etc/mkinitcpio.conf (only relevant sections displayed):
    MODULES=”ext2 ext4” # not sure if this is really nessecary.
    BINARIES=”/usr/bin/gpg” # this could probably be done in install/etwo...
    HOOKS=”base udev usbinput keymap autodetect pata scsi sata usb etwo filesystems” # (usbinput is only needed if you have an usb keyboard)
    Copy the initcpio stuff over to the live cd:
    cp /mnt/lib/initcpio/hooks/etwo /lib/initcpio/hooks/
    cp /mnt/lib/initcpio/install/etwo /lib/initcpio/install/
    cp /mnt/etc/mkinitcpio.conf /etc/
    Verify your LOCALE, KEYMAP and TIMEZONE in /etc/rc.conf!
    Now reinstall the initcpio:
    mkinitcpio -g /mnt/boot/kernel26.img
    Make sure there were no errors and that all hooks were included.
    13. Decrypt the "var" key to the encrypted root
    mkdir /mnt/keys
    chmod 500 /mnt/keys
    gpg –output /mnt/keys/var -d /mnt/boot/var.gpg
    chmod 400 /mnt/keys/var
    14. Setup crypttab
    Edit /mnt/etc/crypttab:
    swap /dev/sda1 SWAP -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 -h whirlpool
    var /dev/sda2 /keys/var
    15. Reboot
    We're done, you may reboot. Make sure you select the usb stick as the boot device in your bios and hope for the best. . If it didn't work, play with grub's settings or boot from the live cd, mount your encrypted devices and check all settings. You might also have less trouble by using uuid's instead of device names.  I chose device names to keep things as simple as possible, even though it's not the optimal way to do it.
    Make backups of your data and your usb stick and do not forget your password(s)! Or you can say goodbye to your data forever...

    I'm trying to run my install script that is based on https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=129885
    Decrypting the gpg key after grub works, but then "Devce root already exists." appears every second.
    any idea ?

  • Aironet 1310, power injector and poe cable

    Hello,
    Can the power injector delivered with aironet 1310 be supplied by a PoE RJ45 cable rather than the traditionnel DC adapter?
    The problem is, i thought Aironet 1310 was PoE. Which means it can be power supplied by a rj45 cable.
    But, when i openned my brand new 1310 box, i realized that 1st, it needs that Power Injector to work and that 2nd, Power injector needs a power supply...
    Usually when i buy a PoE access point, I just plug in my PoE rj45 cable and its power supplied :)
    Anyway, i hope there's an issue for this because where the 1310 should be placed, there's only a PoE rj45 cable arriving.
    Thanks in advance,
    lachapelle

    Hi lachapelle,
    Sadly the 1310 cannot be powered by PoE ,but, the Power Injector can be up to 100 meters away from the unit.
    Dual coaxial cable to run from the power injector to the 1300. See attached notes:
    Cisco Aironet 1300 Series
    Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Access Point/Bridge Power Injector
    The Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Outdoor Access Point/Bridge Power Injector,converts the standard 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface that is suitable for weather protected areas to a dual F-Type connector interface for coax cables that are more suitable for harsh outdoor environments. The Power Injector also provides power to the outdoor unit over the same cables with a power discover feature and surge protection. To support longer cable runs from your wireless network switch or router, the Power Injector LR is designed to accommodate up to a 100 meter coaxial cable run plus 100 meters of indoor cat5 cable?enabling total cable runs up to 200 meters. The Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Outdoor Access Point/Bridge ships with the Power Injector LR2 and an AC power supply.

    Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Outdoor Access Point/Bridge Hardware Installation Guide
    Ethernet Ports
    The access point/bridge dual-coax Ethernet ports consists of a pair of 75-ohm F-type connectors, linking the unit to your 100BASE-T Ethernet LAN through the power injector. The dual-coax cables are used to send and receive Ethernet data and to supply inline 48-VDC power from the power injector to the access point/bridge.
    Power
    The access point/bridge receives inline power from the Cisco Aironet Power Injector (hereafter called the power injector). Dual-coax cables are used to provide Ethernet data and power from the power injector to the access point/bridge. The power injector is an external unit designed for operation in a sheltered environment, such as inside a building or vehicle. The power injector also functions as an Ethernet repeater by connecting to a Category 5 LAN backbone and using the dual-coax cable interface to the access point/bridge.
