Powering a Mikrotik RB2011 using a Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch

Using the passive PoE Mode on the Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch range, I was able to power a Mikrotik RB2011iL. The Mikrotik’s ETH1 port accepts  7 – 31 volts on pins 4, 5 (+), 7 and 8 (-), this matches up with the 24 volts which the Edgeswitch provides on the same pins. This is super handy due to the fact that this Mikrotik model does not have a normal IEC C16 plug and requires an external power supply if you’re not powering via PoE.

Cisco 3702E Antenna Locations

I couldn’t find this information anywhere on the Internet, so hopefully this will be helpful for someone out there. A Cisco 3702E WAP has 4 external antennas labeled ABCD, on the access point itself they are setup as per the diagram.
