HDK Mounting Tray Sample
Use these
to print your own Cisco Aironet Developer Platform HDK mounting tray. This reference design file can be used as-is or modified with CAE tools to add custom features.
ABS print material is recommended for optimal strength. The mounting posts on the mounting tray are designed to accept M3 self tapping screws.
Note Depending on the printer, smaller M2.5 screws may be used to avoid splitting the printed mounting posts.

12 V DC Power Output
A single 4/2.35 mm female DC jack can used for powering third party modules that require 12VDC, such as the Intel NUC. The power output is efused at 5A. The output power can enabled/disabled usng the SW2 slide switch or the J9 jumper.
For convenience and least confusion, leave it enabled.
The actual maximum power output provided by the 12VDC jack depends on the power supplied to the board from the AP or the external 12VDC jack input. The values are given below.
