Well that's on the "tough"switch, not the suppressor. Surge suppressors clamp to ground. That's what they do. Shorts can happen for a variety of other reasons anyway and the power supplying device should be able to deal with that too. Stuff I've shorted that still works: * Cisco Cat6500 POE enabled linecards (port fault shutdown) * PowerDsine managed midspans (port fault shutdown) * PowerDsine passive (overcurrent cycling) * Packetflux passive (blew inline fuse) * UBNT single power injectors (overcurrent cycling) Once I accidentally connected a low voltage surge protector to a POE port on the Cisco. The result was it kept clamping to ground every time the port tried to power up. The switch spewed port fault traps for a minute before I realized the suppressor was suppressing the POE voltage per its ratings (7 volts?) but it didn't damage the POE port. I've also had a few failed UBNT Instant 802.3af adapters short out and do the same thing without the POE supply being damaged other than tripping whatever its fault protection mode was. ~Seth _______________________________________________ Ubnt_users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/ubnt_users
