some of the ubiquiti poe supplies are noisy...  some not.

Since I have 5 poe access points pointing in different directions, i have two  third party power hubs   one a 24vdc  one a 48 vdc ... both carry CE markings as does the last Ubiquiti POE ps I used.   I do remember back a while I did have ferrites on both sides of one early switchers.


Also my HF antennas are at at least 50 feet away , with the tower 140 feet out.

No broadband available for about three miles away.  So much for RURAL BROADBAND.

having to deal with a bit of rfi supression is a small price to pay for having broadband.

The typical source of noise with PoE is from the switching supply -
either connected to a power injector or in some terminal device
(e.g. Router/Modem) with the Ethernet cable acting as the antenna.
Common mode chokes on the Ethernet cable as close to the device as
possible should help but experimentation (and replacing the noisy
power supply) will probably be necessary.

If that is the ONLY source, it might be better to replace it with a linear supply of suitable current rating. I wouldn't be certain that it is the only source -- perhaps there's some power conversion happening at the unit (that is, up on the pole), in which case a choke there would also be required.

But that doesn't answer the key question I asked Bill -- is the system noisy or not.
