Re: [WISPA] Using the 2nd port on a PS2?
The secondary port on the PS2 is just another ethernet port, it does not have any POE (in or out, AFAIK). You can use it to align the antenna better using a netbook and the web UI alignment tool.

Re: [WISPA] Using the 2nd port on a PS2?
Cool. I want to use a pair of NS5M's as a backhaul to the PS2. So I should be able use that second ethernet port on the PS2 to connect the NS5M.

Re: [WISPA] Using the 2nd port on a PS2?
The cover has the place for that cable covered but you can snap if out of the cover if you want to use it. You can also use it as PoE but by default the firmware has the PoE turned off on that port. I find it handy to mount it, run the cable, install the PoE inside the clients structure then plug in with the network to the second port to air it. Really sweet. Also love the AirGrids where I can power it up with the USB from the netbook and aim it all with no cable ran at all. I've PRE installed 2 AirGrids that way, just hung them, aimed and left for the installer boy to come later to run the cable Was doing a site survey and just hung it on their TV tower and left it.

Re: [WISPA] Using the 2nd port on a PS2?
On the new Nanos there is. By default the power won't pass through but in the firmware you can click the box for PoE pass-through then you can use it to power up a second device. I envision using something like that as maybe a bridge for going around a corner or to bounce the signal around some obstacle by using one to catch the signal then a second to redirect it out.

Re: [WISPA] Using the 2nd port on a PS2?
Me too. However, if you ever need to tap into the power from the PS2, the board inside is the same board as the light station so it has a solder point for a power jack. The power jack and the PoE are connected in the same path so you can tap into it if you ever need to do such a thing. You can't actually add a jack because there is no clearance but to solder on a pigtail is very doable.

You can also use it as PoE but by default the firmware has the PoE turned off on that port. I find it handy to mount it, run the cable, install the PoE inside the clients structure then plug in with the network to the second port to air it. Really sweet. Also love the AirGrids where I can power it up with the USB from the netbook and aim it all with no cable ran at all. I've PRE installed 2 AirGrids that way, just hung them, aimed and left for the installer boy to come later to run the cable Was doing a site survey and just hung it on their TV tower and left it. Saved time.

What about the weather getting to it? It's unplugged for the most part. The primary port has the wire to keep away spiders or something from laying eggs. Are spiders (bugs/dirt/etc) conductive?

Also good for the new Nanos as well with their second port.

The secondary port on the PS2 is just another ethernet port, it does not have any POE (in or out, AFAIK). You can use it to align the antenna better using a netbook and the web UI alignment tool.
