Explanation:

A solid amber radio status LED on an Aruba Access Point (AP) typically indicates a power issue, specifically that not enough Power over Ethernet (PoE) is being provided from the switch to fully power all functionalities of the AP, including both of its radios. In environments where APs are powered via PoE, it is crucial to ensure that the switch supplying the power is capable of delivering sufficient power for the AP's requirements. If the AP does not receive enough power, it may disable certain features or radios to conserve energy, which is indicated by the solid amber LED. This situation is common in scenarios where the switch provides only 802.3af PoE rather than the more powerful 802.3at PoE+ needed by some high-performance APs to operate all features, including dual radios, at full capacity.
