How can I replace Ruckus ICX-7150 12 port POE switch with a TP-Link 16 port POE switch?

[aubreyruckus]

I currently have an AT&T router/modem combo gateway feeding my Ruckus ICX-7150 12 port POE switch in my smart closet. I'd like to replace it with a TP-Link 16 port POE switch (model # TL-SG116P). If I simply remove all the ethernet cables from my Ruckus switch ports and plug them into the POE ports on the TP-Link switch, will the TP-Link switch automatically start powering my Ruckus R510 access points with the same AP login/password, or would I need to do some kind of additional setup or configuration to get the TP-Link switch to work with the Ruckus R510 access points? I will ask TP-Link the same question, but I'd really like to get an answer from both Ruckus and TP-Link. Thanks.
