Model: TL-WA3001  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.02

I'd like to get a active to passive adapter to support my WA3001 in a location that is not near an outlet.  I also don't have any more outlets on my UPS to use the supplied injector which is why I want to get an adapter.  What pins does the WA3001 use for 48V?

It's not a step down, it's indeed 48V/0.5A most probably bacuase of the Wi-Fi 6 (AX standard) implemented - detail (Q4).

This should be a standard - here are some more details regarding PoE implementation in TP-Link APs.

I did see that FAQ but didn't see the WA3001 listed so I wasn't sure if the B mode wiring applied. Can you also confirm that the WA3001 does indeed take 48V for the passive POE. The power adapter is 48V 0.5A but I don't know if this is stepped down inside the injector or not.
