He men,

I have an older AC 5300 where the radios died that I would like to use in my shop. I was going to add an TP Link Omada 660 for the wireless.
Does the AC 5300 support Power over Ethernet ?

If you are talking about Asus router, then no. You have to use PoE switch or PoE injector to power the AP.
 
Most consumer router/AP's do not support PoE.
I have yet to see one that does, and if, POE is not enough anymore for most current devices. Even a decent AP requires POE+ nowadays.
