First I've heard of it.
I guess I have mixed feelings. The Canopy POE is simple, and it's super
easy to tell if it's plugged in properly. The other types (like Tycon)
are hard for some people to grock. Even when I show it to them and
explain which connector goes where, I've had customers argue with me
that it should be the "other way". So on the Tycons, I have gone to the
extreme of labeling the POE/LAN cables to indicate exactly what they
hook to.

So is anyone else unhappy with Cambium’s decision to EOL the traditional power
supply?
The replacement part is a Ubiquiti or ePMP brick style. It costs more, does
not include the power cord, and requires an additional CAT5 jumper cable.
While the current supply has it’s issues (hard to plug into a power strip) it’s
simple to troubleshoot over the phone with a customer with limited ways to
screw it up. I think this is going to create more ‘miswire’ service calls.
