Wi-Fi Antennas
Two integrated dual-band moderately directional antennas for 2×2 MIMO with maximum individual antenna gain of 4.3dBi in 2.4GHz and 6.2dBi in 5GHz. Built-in antennas are optimized for vertical orientation of the AP. The horizontal beamwidth is roughly 120 degrees.
- Combining the patterns of each of the antennas of the MIMO radios, the peak gain of the effective per-antenna pattern is 3.2dBi in 2.4GHz and 4.6dBi in 5GHz.

Power Sources and Consumption
The AP supports direct DC power and Power over Ethernet (PoE)
When both power sources are available, DC power takes priority over PoE
Power sources are sold separately
Direct DC power source: 48Vdc nominal, +/- 5%
Power over Ethernet (PoE): 48 Vdc (nominal) 802.3af/802.3at compliant source
Unrestricted functionality with direct DC power. When using an 802.3af PoE source, the PoE out (PSE) capability of the 303H is always disabled.
Without IPM, both the USB port and PoE out (PSE) capability are disabled when the AP is powered by an 802.3af PoE source, and either the USB port or the PoE out (PSE) capability is disabled when powered by an 802.3at PoE source (PSE capability is disabled by default).
When using IPM, the AP may enter power-save mode with reduced functionality when powered by a PoE source (see details on Intelligent Power Monitoring elsewhere in this datasheet)
Maximum (worst-case) power consumption: 9.7W
Excludes power consumed by external USB and/or PoE-PD device (and internal losses); this could add up to 6.1W (PoE) for a 5W/1A USB device and up to 15.6W for a max load (15.4W) 802.3af PoE-PD device
Maximum (worst-case) power consumption in idle mode: 4.9W (PoE) or 4.8W (DC)
