Yes, it's important to wire the D-Link radio through the DC converter when powering it because the output voltage of the Power Distribution Board is different from the required input voltage for the radio. It is also required to pass inspection.
Edit: See rule [R42B]:

The wireless bridge power feed must be supplied by the 5V converter (model # TBJ12DK025Z) connected to the marked 12 Vdc supply terminals located at the end of the PD Board (i.e. the terminals located between the indicator LEDs, and not the main WAGO connectors along the sides of the PD Board). No other electrical load can be connected to these terminals (please reference any 2012 Robot Power Distribution Diagram posted on the Kit of Parts site for wireless bridge wiring information.

You do need to cut the cable off of the AC adapter that came with the D-link radio. Use crimp connectors to attach it to the appropriate wires. See the
Power Distribution Diagram for more information.
