but backhauls use more power than APs, traditionally. Cambium tower radios support 48v.

More and more products are coming out with 48V, and it's easier, and lower current to go down voltage than up voltage. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 1/7/2015 8:41 AM, Josh Luthman wrote: <blockquote> For one device on 48v I'd do 24v natively and go up.

From: Mathew Howard Sent: Wednesday, January 07, 2015 9:24 AM To: af Subject: [AFMUG] Mimosa DC PoE injector I need to power a Mimosa B5 at a site where I only have DC at the tower, would a WBMFG GigE-POE be the best thing to use to power one of these? Also, since I'm going to need to be converting to 48v, I'm thinking of using a Meanwell AD-155C and an RSD-100C to downconvert to 24v for everything else - is there anything I should be looking at doing differently? </blockquote> </blockquote>
