Add a battery, Duct tape and DURA CELL, or solder if you want to get fancy.
Or when your nearby, change it out to a Lithium phone battery.  I'm pretty
sure that what Tim's been doing.

Yep, even tried the serial port etc.nada.nothing.  I'm willing to try the
"new & improved" version with the LCD screen, but if one of those fails
pre-maturely than we're done with them for good.

If it looses it's ip then yes. Did you try the default ip? I always kept an
address block in the DL default range on my routers just in case.

Hey Cameron,

 

Yah, I remember this topic coming up before, but the failures we've had
(that come quickly to mind) are no access to the unit at all.  Does the
battery issue prevent the unit from working even when power is restored?

Brad,

A tip on the Loggers 8 port...there is a rechargeable battery inside that
doesn't seem to last more than a year. Once it dies, you lose your config
and if the device ever looses power, everything comes back in either all off
state or all on state. I tossed one logger and then when it happened to a
second, I decided to tinker. I got a replacement battery at batteries plus
and it started working correctly again, saving my config after a power
outage. I'm not sure what can be done about it except to put them on a
maintenance schedule. Of course this was on the older devices....maybe
they've gone to flash memory now?

We've had more failures than successes with the Digital Loggers eight port
rack mount rebooter.  Granted they are the least expensive rebooter on the
market at less than $300, but I would expect a better failure rate than what
we've seen out of them the past several years.

 

I noticed on Digital Loggers site that they have a newer version available.
Maybe this version is more reliable?  I've also read that the DIN mount
style rebooter is more reliable than the 2U rack mount style.  Maybe Kevin
could somehow integrate the DIN unit into his PoE controller to save costs
and development.

 

While I think adding a couple AC ports to this device would be neat..let's
not divert from the intent of this product from being a PoE controller.

 

I wonder why UBNT doesn't design a PoE controller that would fit the need?
Seems like a natural fit product that they could also manage via their
AirControl System management software.

 

Best,

Kevin, 

On cost:  With your model, we're still going to need to buy a device like a
Digital Loggers remote AC reboot device because we will need to reboot a
router or switch.

If it can have a couple of AC ports to power a Mikrotik router (x86-based)
and a switch, we don't have to ALSO buy another remote boot device ($350
value).

Since we can get the remote booting with the digital logger box, then all
your box has done is clean up our PoE's, and I wouldn't pay nearly that
much.

So... we're most of the way through a mid-span design similar to what people
are outlining here. Right now it's only non-standard POE, though. No 802.3.
Again, we were only going to build three, for our own use. If we sold
something that was:

 

Remote on/off per port

Auto-ping reboot per port

Dual-power supply, with notification on fail

DC powered, either 12, 24, or 48v

The one we are working on is 24v output only

1u rackmount or small form factor wall mountable

SNMP for reboot, voltage monitoring, input monitoring

 

We figured if it's a DC device, we can plug it into 110v easily with a
transformer.

 

If it was $450, would anyone buy them? Actually, what I really need to know
is, would we be able to get rid of 90 of them? We'd have to make a batch of
100, and we could use 10.  We'd get them back from the PCB manufacturer
mid-May.

I may be off here from the majority, but I don't want a switch.  I want to
be able to put these onto router ports as well as switch ports.

I just want a rackmount multiport passive PoE controller, manageable per
port with autoping and redundant power supplies.  Is that so much to ask
for??? ;)

Just put in a 12 port 24V version of this for a UniFi WLAN. Worked
flawlessly. 

Powered the UBNT PB5 on one of the ports too.
