We've been using the Tycon's for quite a while as well. We found it
next to impossible to trouble shoot the Cambium power supply with a
customer. They could never comprehend what it was, and always tried to
plug in a PC to the POE Jumper. The Tycon's are nice, because you can
describe the white box, with 2 plugs on one side (AC and LAN), and one
plug on the other (poe). Is there a yellow or green light, The Cable
from outside plugs into the end with only 1 plug.

I never used it anyway, prefer Tycon POE-24iR-CI. And yes, a patch
cord, but those come in various lengths and colors rather than the
short little stub which is limiting.

Subject: [AFMUG] Cambium discontinuing the traditional wall wart power
supply
So is anyone else unhappy with Cambium’s decision to EOL the
traditional power supply?
The replacement part is a Ubiquiti or ePMP brick style. It costs
more, does not include the power cord, and requires an additional CAT5
jumper cable.
While the current supply has it’s issues (hard to plug into a power
strip) it’s simple to troubleshoot over the phone with a customer with
limited ways to screw it up. I think this is going to create more
‘miswire’ service calls.
