We use S16s elsewhere on fully loaded towers with 320s. But we have two with long lengths that are still getting 48v to the top but apparently, not enough amperage

I can tell you that they'll power an AF-5X or ePMP AP without any issues, but I don't know about anything beyond that. If the S16 isn't putting out enough power, I doubt these will.

I have (2) towers with 400+ runs of 12awg from bottom to top with a 10AMP 56v/48v power supply going to a fully loaded S16 including (2) Cambium 320s (using power adapter) . We are getting 48v actual at the top, BUT plugging the 2nd 320 into the S16 in at the top causes everything to reboot. Changed 320s, definitely not a specific radio issue. Soooo… I have plenty of fiber ports at the top so though I might be able to use a separate 48 power supply at the bottom (have another pair of 12awg to use also) and be able to power up one of both of the 320s off that. Can’t tell by the specs if the PowerBox Pro will output enough power???
