I would not put any surge protection on Netonix period, top or
bottom. If it is POE and powered by a passive source you run a risk
of smoking it with any surge suppressor.
I have two devices designed, one is an ancillary fuse to put inline
with Netonix. The second is adding fusing to my surge protectors if
I can fit it in. The external in line fuse product is ready for
prototyping.

We are also very interested in this topic. We will be building out
10 new towers in the next few months, and will be making the change
to Netonix switches (we had previously used a different type of
switch). I the past we had put Transtector surge protectors on the
tower top and in the cabinet on the ground. From what you are saying
in thread, we should not plan on surge protectors in the cabinet, but
what is the recommended change for the tower top, if any?
Thanks,

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.
