Ooooohhhh....give me...give me.

I will take 50 right now.  I still have about 30 of the old (recalled)
POE units in play anyway.

sB...hook me up?

Its the new 48vDC powershot that auto senses the cable length from the
PSU
to the radio and adjusts the power automatically.

What the heck is that?  Is that the 18V version?

I have seen it too, on the end that is coming out of the powershot their
is
a center pin. bend this pin a few degrees to one side. Don't bend it so
much
that it touches the other conductor. The pin will now contact the inner
wall
of the power plug with out much problem. I have had to do that on
several
smartbridges. It is from poor quality parts with low +- tolerance
standards
(center pin 2.5mm + - x%) the higher the x% (more leeway) in tolerance,
the
cheaper the part. I also have barrel plugs slip out every once in a
while. I
wish they would go to a standardized locking plug.

sB...this may be something for you to look at closely.

I was troubleshooting a clients bad airBridge unit last night and
noticed something flakey about the POE unit.

Hope I can describe it...

If you follow the wall plug wire up to the point where you can
connect/disconnect it from the POE unit there is a chrome plug.  Out
of the box, this is initially unplugged.

While you are looking at your connected/associated sB product...hold
that chrome power plug in both hands (one on the power plug side and
one on the POE side) and twist it 360 degrees around axis.  You will
notice that the power goes on and off.  I did very small tweaks
(rotating the chrome plug around axis) until I actually found a spot
that would cause the sB unit to go (and stay) offline (noticed the
Ethernet 10 Meg connection go offline "Cable Unplugged").  I then
tweaked it a bit away from that position and it would go back online
("10 Meg Cable connected").

I was logged into the sB product (in my case airBridge), and when I
would twist this connector, it would lose association (obviously...due
to loss of power) and then twist it back and it would reassociate.

I tried this with several POE units and power cables.  All with the
same results.  Given some more time, I will have to check the POE
power pins and see if there are "sweet spots" on this chrome plug that
allow the full 12 volts to pass.  Or vice versa.

Can someone else confirm my findings please??
