If it's a current limiting supply like any of the modern POE Injectors, then I don't think there's usually a problem, if it's a direct connection like a battery, then yes, it releases the magic smoke. But the Cambium radios would do that too if you reverse the polarity with a battery pack, years ago we had an installer who never paid attention to the polarity, he fried several FSK Radios.

It usually fries them when we use our battery packs and get the polarity wrong.

I have a customer who plugged an M series Nanostation Loco into a reverse polarity POE intended for a Cambium SM. (long story)

Anybody know if this means the Nanostation is fried?  I’m guessing yes.
