They also commented that a POE brick can survive the short circuit due to internal short circuit protection. And they also said the polyfuse is there for safety, not port protection.

It is just as Matt Hoppes said. You short out their POE and it will blow the Ethernet transformer. I really presumed they had circuitry like Forrest that could detect and shut down in an over current situation. They do have poly fuses which are slow to react and may protect it from a very brief short, but longer shorts will indeed harm the port feeding the transformer. So, Netonix is not active POE. I would say that on passive POE a plain surge suppressor should not be used. I am working some “non plain” surge suppressors now.... ;-) Stay tuned to this bat channel and a big thanks to Matt for forcing me to learn something new. It was painful, but I can do painful things when I have to.
