Yeah. We accidentally hooked up an AF24 through a Cambium surge
suppressor, and it fragged the port on the Netonix. We were swapping
from something else that had been on the cable, and completely forgot
that it was going through that surge suppressor. Hard lesson learned.

OK, had an exchange with Netonix today. It is just as Matt Hoppes
said. You short out their POE and it will blow the Ethernet transformer.
I really presumed they had circuitry like Forrest that could detect
and shut down in an over current situation. They do have poly fuses
which are slow to react and may protect it from a very brief short,
but longer shorts will indeed harm the port feeding the transformer.
So, Netonix is not active POE. I would say that on passive POE a
plain surge suppressor should not be used. I am working some “non
plain” surge suppressors now.... ;-) Stay tuned to this bat channel
and a big thanks to Matt for forcing me to learn something new. It was
painful, but I can do painful things when I have to.
