Cambium sells a "carrier PoE" for the 450 that will accept -48v input.  I think the PMP450 normally does not run on -48.

Some WISP equipment like Packetflux started with +24V and extended the voltage range so now it can be powered via +48/56V.

It’s a little difficult to pin down some radios, it seems like most 802.3af equipment is actually floating and as long as you observe polarity, either side of the power supply can be grounded.  Documentation usually doesn’t say.  Also some Mikrotik equipment may say -48V in the spec sheet but the terminals are just labeled + and – and seems to be floating just like 802.3af.  Cambium/Ceragon has a DC powered POE that seems happy with +24, -48 or +48 input. My belief has always been that Cambium radios like 450i and 450m want +48V POE but maybe they don’t care.  The Cambium POE brick actually has a 2 pin AC power cord and no ground terminal, implying that the power source can be floating.  I wish manufacturers weren’t so vague about this.

I guess my experience is the reverse.  Having spent 40 years in telecom, seems that almost everything rack mounted is –48 if you want DC power.  I don’t recall ever finding +48 rack mounted telecom equipment.

I have one site with an Eltek/Valere system and it does its job quite nicely, my question for you:  how do you deal with the Eltek Systems mostly being designed for -48 yet a lot of the equipment ISPs use wants +48?  My one Eltek site has an old Purewave WiMax basestation that I am about to decommission but I will need +48 and I don’t want to put in a DC-DC converter if nothing will be running off the -48.

    We go direct to Eltek/valere -48 system.  It has redundant

    Hey guys, we are stepping up to some 48v equipment on a tower and
    in looking into power supply switches. This seemed to be something
    that would work for us (Mean Well SE-1000-48). Any thoughts or
    pros and cons that yall have found with this unit. Any units of
    similarity that might work well in place of this one. Thanks
