A managed POE device should see shorts as an over current fault and shutdown the port. If it fries itself that's a poorly designed device or one that needs a fuse ahead of it and the fuse was omitted (i.e. why you put a fuse in front of a packetflux passive injector). I've accidentally shorted my share of POE connected cables either across pairs or to ground and none of the switches or injectors blew up. At worst they threw SNMP traps about overcurrent faults (manged) or blew the fuse (passive standalone). None were fatal to devices. ~Seth _______________________________________________ Ubnt_users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/ubnt_users
