If it works from a Netonix switch, which we all know is +48VDC, then the radio isn't tying power return to chassis ground. aka floating, just like a SAF Lumina. But I do remember hearing that the DC input block on the IP20/820 ODU itself is chassis bonded. Isn't the 820 802.3at compliant? Most of that stuff is going to be floating or negative bonded.

I'm powering about half of our Trango ApexPlus radios using GIGE-POE-APCs using +48VDC supplies, and/or RSD200C-48's in mixed setups. The Trango's definitely chassis bond return on *all* of the power inputs (mgmt, data and DC block). AFAIK, Trango is using the exact same Pulse transformer in their POE-GIGE-48 injector boxes. It simply comes down to not mixing "-48" and "+48" devices on the same supply if anything is chassis bonded.

Hi Chuck...

This may be an opportunity to clarify something...

According to the specs Ceragon IP-20c is a -48vdc radio.
Their POE box/adapter, takes 48v dc or 24v dc and powers the radio.

There has not been any clear answer if their Radios will run on regular 48vdc 
directly ...
There have been folks who have 'tested' the cambium 820 version of these 
plugging directly on the Netonix switches.

In my opinion, these are not 'in-expensive' radios that I would risk installing 
in-correctly.

In recommending your injector / surge protector as a solution, my question 
would be.

1) can we do -48v dc power via these devices ? it is just a matter of making 
sure the polarity of the dc cable is correct ? or is there more to it.

Some suggestions:-

for the POE injector...
      you can try a Cambium Reseller.
      you can possibly by them on Ebay (shipping from Israel)
      you can try  Surplus Wireless Gear folks too.

In regards to the Power Supply, that is a straight forward 48v DC power
supply (Brick).

Somehow I misplaced my Ceragon POE injector and power supplies during a
cabinet
move.

Anyone happen to have a Ceragon IP-20C compatible POE unit they could sell
me?

I think the power supplies probably aren't that hard to find, but the POE
apparently is.
