There are other injectors that will power a SAF. From: George Skorup Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2016 9:49 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] RackMount PacketFlux PowerInjector+Sync
I believe the max spec for the Lumina HP is about 55 watts. Slightly more than an AF24 at 50 watts (@ 50V). Maybe 56V would bring the current down a little. Forrest did say 1A max per port, which would be right on the edge for the AF24. So there has to be a little wiggle room in there. Hopefully.

Notable exceptions: Cambium 320/430 radios (oddly pinned power not compatible with a true gigabit radio), and other radios which try to do everything across the eight pairs and end up breaking compatibility as a result - for instance some of the high end microwave radios which don't do true PoE but instead rely on their own special injector which does everything under the sun. ETA: Depends on how many projects we can juggle at once. The next 30 days or so are consumed with Wispamerica and trying to get the new 4 port injector released to production. After that happens, we're going to try to simultaneously work on both this project and the 12 port version of the 'din mountable' injector. Assuming that works well, we're looking at probably around 90 days (from now) for both the 12 port and the rackmount unit. But, this all can slip if we need to spin a board.

Really like idea of being able to replace in 6 port chunks too. ETA? Really liking this product.

We are about 98% sure we have a rackmount enclosure manufacturer which we can work with. Domestic. Product looks decent. Price is right. Which means it's time to nail down a few details here, such as number of ports, so I can get some enclosures cut and boards made and hopefully get this elephant out of the room.... So I need some input: The rough figures I'm working with here is $800 for a 18 port rackmount power injector. Voltage and pinning jumper selectable per port. Per-port control of power and sync. Probably some redundant power and other things built in, but I'm still nailing those details down (a lot of it comes down to space on the front panel of the enclosure). PLEASE NOTE: The prices here are soft - until I get the design completed I won't know what I can sell this for - as many of you know I try to price things at a fair price as opposed to what the market will bear. The main questions I have for the list are: Is 18 the correct number of ports? 18 is looking like about the most I can fit based on front panel dimensions. This corresponds to 3 blocks of 6 ports (if you lose a port and need to replace it, you'd replace 6 at a time). Other options are 16 (4 blocks of 4), and pretty much any smaller quantities of ports which are divisible by 4 or 6. I guess what I'm really asking here is whether the 18 port version for $800 is the only version of this I should make or carry, or does it make sense to sell (as an example) an 8 port version for $400 instead of or in addition to this? -- Forrest Christian CEO, PacketFlux Technologies, Inc.
