Typically where we use them are small sites with an ePMP or PowerBeam for a
backhaul and an omni or two (usually ubiquiti 2.4 and ePMP 5ghz, but
sometimes only one or the other)... which by my figuring should be well
under 1 amp, so it hasn't been a problem feeding them with PoE... if you
actually had 2 amps on it, you might very well run into issues with PoE.
