Yes, better.  At this time, we only use AC to power devices.

Also I didn't see a web interface or cli on your list of features...

Also also, number of ports should = 12

At $250, depending on features when it actually hit the street, we would take about 20.

I guess the biggest question in my mind is whether most WISPs would need a non-standard 24v or 48v out. At the last Ubiquiti conference they mentioned that their newest line of AirBeam APs will be running 48v. Obviously their current line is 24v, as is Trango and Tranzeo. Moto needs the GPS sync signal, so this wouldn't work for that. Also, would most people use DC or A/C to power the device? If DC, 24 or 48v? I talked it over with our electrical engineer, and he says the $450 number is what it would cost in the three-four quantity we had been discussing. In a batch of 100, the price would be closer to $250. Is that more appealing?
Thanks!

    Hello Kevin,

    I'd be interested depending on how many ports you think this
device would have. It seems 12 ports would be a good compromise. If a HUB site requires more than 12 ports then that site should
    easily justify another $450 in equipment, IMO.

    Would surge suppression be included similar to whatever basic
    surge suppression is found in today's PoE's?

    24VDC output would probably be our preference too.  Are you saying
    the DC input would be adjustable or are you looking for a consensus?

    1U shallow depth rack mount is pretty much a requirement for us.

    Keep us posted...

    Best,

    Brad

    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.
