GS105PE - PoE Passtru works only after Reset-button pressed

I have a GS105PE, it is powered by a UniFi Switch 8 POE-60W, 802.3af.

Then I passtru to a UniFi AP-AC-LITE. I have to push the netgear reset button to get PoE passtru work and the AP are powered up correct.

When I powercycle the Netgear switch the PoE passtru led starts to blink slowly, indicationg fault. Then I press the reset-button again to get it work.

 

I have started a thread with UniFi to clarify the maximum PoE budget its stated in datasheet 6.5W:

https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Wireless/UniFi-AP-AC-LITE-PoE-Budget/m-p/2536464#M334773

 

I have updated to FW: 1.6.0.3.

 

Thanks for your suport!

  • Hi Sam,

    I got your AP today and it shows class 4. 

    Therefore, it's correct behavior that it can't be power up by GS105PE in your case since GS105PE is powered by 802.3af PSE. 

    In your case, if you want your AP can be powered up by GS105PE, please connect 802.3at PSE to GS105PE PD port.

    Hi Sam,

     

    GS105PE: PoE troubleshooting does nicely decribe the power available at the PoE PD ports, depending of the power source being 802.3af (aka. 802.3at Type 1) or 802.3at.

    The point is that Netgear seems to have a problem with this fancy GS105PE, the problem the OP has started to show up a while ago, there are several posts in the NEtgear Community - I hope Netgear does work on it. bradleyv LaurentMa?

        Hi,

        What's the FW and boot loader version of GS105PE?

        Also, what't the class of UniFi AP-AC-LITE?
