Question
Your customer added third-party USB dongles to the USB ports of their AOS-10 access points. The customer uses AP-615 and AP-635. Each AP is connected with a Cat 6A cable to a CX 6300F Class 4 PoE switch. All APs are in the same group in HPE Aruba Networking Central and share the same configuration. However, many of the dongles do not come up. Which option will solve this issue?
Options
- AReplace the Class a PoE switches with Class 6 PoE switches.
- BCreate two separate service profiles in the loT tab of the Central configuration settings.
- CPerform a "poe disable" followed by a "poe enable" for the switch ports which connect to the APs

Explanation
USB dongles often require additional power, which may exceed the power delivery capabilities of Class 4 PoE switches. Aruba AP-615 and AP-635 are designed to work with USB dongles that require additional power for proper operation. Since the Cat 6A cable can support higher power levels, replacing the Class 4 PoE switches with Class 6 PoE switches, which can deliver higher power, should resolve the issue with the dongles not powering up.
