Ah, ok... I see what's going on. It looks like it only works on the radios
with gigabit ports. I found a NanoBeam M5-19, and confirmed that it does
work with the ePMP POE, but the NanoBeam M5-16 does not, and none of the M2
radios do. So it probably works on PowerBeam M5-400 (but not 300, unless
they've changed recently), NanoBeam M5-19 (but not 16) and the newer
NanoStations/Locos (I'm guessing... I don't have any here to try). Good to
know!
