XS716T and UWB-XG
Anyone know if a Netgear XS16T will power a Unifi BaseStationXG (UWB-XG)? I don't think the XS716T has the 802.3bt standard and the UWB-XG calls for it. On the other hand, the wattage output minimum on the XS716T is 45.3w (source: product datasheet) and the maximum needed for the UWB-XG is 31w (source: Quick Start Guide). Thoughts?
802.3bt is a PoE standard. While the XS716T (or for sake any XS7xxT and XS7xxE switch model) does certainly support your new AP, it's not PoE(++) switch. It just requires using the UWB-XG Gigabit PoE++ adapter 50V DC, 1.2A (Included with the UWB-XG from what I understand, I -guess- this is an in-line power injector) you can install near to the switch, or near to the AP.

Hello HolmesNetworks,
What you need is a switch that has PoE, specifically PoE ++ 802.3bt. The XS716T does not support PoE. The 45.3 W in the datasheet is the minimum power consumption of the XS716T.

Netgear TeamModerators, feel free to delete this thread. We meant to ask this of another switch and have posted that topic here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Managed-Switches/M4300-52G-PoE-and-UWB-XG/m-p/2391336#M14345
Thank you.
