The one I have sitting here says Phihong but it’s old enough to be Motorola not
Cambium.
If Cambium was worried about losing a bunch of sales, they wouldn’t be dropping
the product. My guess is it’s a minimum order thing. They probably have to
order X thousands at a time and the last order took them a year or two to
unload to distributors, and it was time to decide whether to order another
container load of them and have them take up warehouse space, plus now they
would be carrying two versions of POE.
So if CTI or another distributor wanted to order a bunch direct from the
manufacturer (or a knockoff from somewhere else), it would be reasonable to
expect Cambium to give the OK. I wouldn’t expect them to cry over the lost
revenue though.

That will be really funny if CTI sources them and moto looses out on a bunch of
sales, lol

With the speed keys and regional variants they have a large amount of product
stock already, I imagine they're not trying to keep old items and didn't see a
big reason people would want the old-style PSUs.
I thought CTI had gotten some PSUs straight from the manufacturer years ago
when there was a Motorola shortage, you could check with them.

Which is great...for you.
Why can't I have a choice? Why are they taking it away if there is still
demand? Why won't they let us go straight to whatever manufacturer they get
them from??

I'm one of those that prefer the new PoE:
-less outlet space needed
-gigabit option (current 450 SMs can reach 75mbit down so it's likely
next generation will hit 100+)
-can choose whatever cable length is needed to go to PC/router.
-won't have the broken RJ tab / wires pulling out of the RJ due to cable
weight issues of the current PoE model
With very big "TO COMPUTER / ROUTER" "TO OUTSIDE ANTENNA" labels, on
both sides of the unit, customer wiring mistakes will be almost eliminated. I
haven't seen that as a big problem on the PMP320.

Ray can you please come and hang out with one of my clients for a day
and hand them each POE and see which one they can hook up and which one they
can't??
Just because you have made this decision doesn't mean it's a good
decision and we are asking cambium to reconsider. The new POE sucks! Period!

Thanks for the link josh. They normally cost ~$10 so the eBay price
of $24 is someone trying to make a buck on them before they are gone. Also
eventually eBay will run out too so that's not a long term solution.
Come on cambium listen to your long time loyal customers!

Dear Cambium,
Why won't you let us buy the ACPSSW-13B POE if we still want to?
It's very frustrating that we now have to change our install
procedures AND our tech support procedures. The new POE is also very
cumbersome and prone to clients plugging things in backwards etc.
Can you either keep selling them or give us access to the
manufacturer so that we can still buy them?
