You may want to consider putting in a UPS to make sure the power is clean
and consistent even if just to experiment for a short period of time.   We
have used injectors in the past (no longer), and they were completely fine
for us.  Never had a problem.

The other possible problem could be your switch.  If you over load a
switch, the last device(s) to come up on reboot of the switch might not
have enough power to sustain PoE properly.  I have had to increase power
supplies on a few of my switches (or use an additional switch) in heavy
populated PoE scenarios.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Do you have POE everywhere?

Do you have POE in every location or are there some small locations that
still use injectors?

If you have some injectors left, I have a few questions.

1.  How reliable are they?
2.  Are your injectors made by your wireless vendor?
3.  Do you have a way to monitor how often your APs reboot?

The reason I'm asking is that I just discovered that we have some APs that
are rebooting frequently and they are all in locations that still have
injectors.  I expanded some home-grown code and started graphing AP uptime
as well as lwapp/capwap uptime. (Found issues with lwapp/capwap uptime in
a few locations as well)
