With one of my POE inserters, you could tie all the wires together for powering and use ground return to max the current and minimize the voltage drop.

Given the length of the cable run, the 24V supply that comes with the Mikrotik is only 20V at the device, and won't power up the 1000 AP. It's all running with the Cambium 30V POE injector from the F300, but I'm afraid if it reboots in the cold, and has to run the heaters it won't be enough juice to power up. I can find 24V POE's all day long, but 30V are hard. I could use a Meanwell PS (MDR seires Spec sheet says it can be adjusted to 30V max) with a MCT POE Injector, but I'm hoping to find something cleaner, since the POE is just sitting on the floor in an office now. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
