Hi Forbes...
YOu can also look at the connectors on the cable you might want to try
and put new ones on there. Also, did you try a different POE injector at
the tower?
Let us know what you come up with.

Batteries won't last more then a few hours. Our NOC uses 300 watts
and we have a 2200va UP - about 1h 15h run time until generators come

You could use a real inverter which has a higher capacity charger
built in (much faster recovery time). Another advantage of an inverter
is the batteries are sold separately so you can size them accordingly.
You could have much longer run time on the batteries. Though having

The 333 board sucked. That simple.

I've use a 48VDC to 15VDC converter in my boxes. All my tower gear is

Thats why we liked the triplite inverters. They had a 33amp charging circuit
(required 40 amp breaker), and the charge voltage varied based on the type
of battery.
This was my fear with using Smart Ups. They were designed for lead acid
batteries, which have different characteristics than Gel

Sorry Travis, but you are dead wrong about 802.11 not being able to
