Actually it is a Ubiquti radio and the power supply does not need to
be 48 volts, 9-48 works fine for the Gateworks board (Avila GW2348-2).
 We had moisture get in the ethernet jack and burn the pins when it
was using 48 volts, so we switched to a Ubiquti 15 volt adapter and
have not had any problems yet.
