Cisco Catalyst 9130AX Series Access Points
Note Always connect the external antennas to the C9130AXE model before powering the AP up. Enabling the AP
radios without connecting the antennas can result in damage to the AP.
14 Checking the Access Point LEDs
The location of the access point status LED is shown in Figure 1.
Note Regarding LED status colors, it is expected that there will be small variations in color intensity and hue from
unit to unit. This is within the normal range of the LED manufacturer’s specifications and is not a defect.
However, the intensity of the LED can be changed through the controller.
The access point status LED indicates various conditions and are described in
Table 3. The LED status is also indicated
by the C-ANT91xx antennas.

To reset the AP to the default factory-shipped configuration, keep the mode button pressed for less than 20
seconds. The AP configuration files are cleared.
