In my reply to Ty, I measure the voltage 3" away from the board which is
powered by a MeanWell 5 amp 24V supply and is moving customer data so
the radios are transmitting. Pretty sure the loss in 3" of #16 wire
isn't much. Still get very different voltages than the meter reports.
The meter and the Sitemonitor are usually pretty close. Other MT units
not so close.

Voltage seen under the no-load condition of your voltmeter may not match
voltage seen when attached to a board consuming 3-16W depending on radio load.
The injector must be rated 750mA or better at worst case. Also, that
particular one may be faulty and not deliver what it's rated at. Best first
test is to probe the board's voltage points while the board is actually running.

I have a box I am building out and I just powered everything up for the
first time. All is well except the 493G being powered via a packetflux poe
injector being fed 24V reports it's voltage as 18.3V. I verified that the
POE is in fact putting out 24V so what gives? Is there a voltage regulator
on the router (not likely) or is it just reporting incorrectly?
