The issue my customers are occasionally having is simply that the ePMP refuses to acknowledge there's even a valid sync pulse on the PoE. This has been an occasional, lingering issue - but definitely an issue which doesn't occur with regularity.
Recently a customer who was having this problem with a site decided to re-crimp the SyncInjector ends of their shielded tower cables with non-shielded ends. Amazingly, the entire problem went away. I find this odd - although it wouldn't be the first time that shielding played havoc (or improved) sync. So I'm trying to recreate the whole setup as closely as possible so I can do some investigation.
