Oh boy. What about LMG and Packetflux's resettable breakers? Not fast
enough?

To be fast enough it will either have to be fuses or it will have to be
expensive.

There are other reasons a cable could short: water ingress, accidental
cut, faulty device.
Changing your surge suppressor is a good idea, but I think PoE devices
ought to include short circuit protection anyway.

If an impulse comes along and the surge suppressor clamps to ground,
you run the risk of smoking the Netonix POE transformer. It will not
protect itself against shorts.

What exactly is the reason? We always run through your surge
protectors before connecting to Netonix.

So we should now bypass all our APC-type surge suppressors that are
connected to Netonix?

Netonix will fix your port for something like $25

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.
