I have measured Ubiquiti radios at right around 3 watts with an amp meter on DC 
(.25a @12v, if I remember correctly), so I'd say that 2.5 watts is possible. I 
also saw the amps go up when booting and passing traffic, I don't remember 
exactly what the numbers where off hand though.

So funny story - my original ToughSwitch died sometime between Friday and 
today.  This came from Ubnt themselves in Vegas last year (it almost made it a 
year).

So I took the new one in the box and put it in.  I did all of the measurements 
on the AC side because I have a cord that enables me to easily do this.  To 
measure the DC side, I'd have to cut open the wiring and I'd probably throw it 
away afterwards.

121.4 to 122.2 vac
default (powered on, logged into it) 0.05 amp
enabled all 5 poe ports (24v) no change
put on old ns2 got .07 amps
put on ns5m got .09 amps

Now I'm not very confident in saying a Ubnt radio is only 2.5 watts (122vac * 
0.02amps), but at idle I can't say that's impossible.  It definitely went up 
another 0.01 amps while booting, but lost it when it was fully booted.

Better also plan on how many ports will have POE turned on -- even if you don't 
have load on them yet to measure against.  Turning the relays "on" takes more 
power.

If you can't get the answer let me know, I have an amp meter and a NIB 
ToughSwitch.

DO not know off hand, but what I do is use an APC UPS unit with LED power 
wattage info, plug in the item I want to know the true wattage and these guys 
will give it too you. More accurate then a spec sheet ;')

Anyone know the wattage a ToughSwitch 5 port uses when powered directly by a 24

up
