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...

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,
What's the FW and boot loader version of GS105PE?
Also, what't the class of UniFi AP-AC-LITE?

It's not documented - at least this information does not exist or can't be discovered easily. Best guess it's a 802.3af Class 0 or Class 3 device, either way max 15.4W to be reserved. Similar, what class are e.g. the Netgear WAC505, WAC510, WAC720, WAC730, WAC740? Nobody will lower the class requirement based on us "cheepo" people trying to run two such devices from a single 802.3at PD source and a GS105PE 8-)

Boot loader: V1.4.0.5-VB
Class, not avaliable from UniFi.
Note that everything works correct for several days after a hard-reset. A powerloss of the switch cause problem in the startup-mode.

Hi,
We can't find the class of UniFi AP-AC-LITE, neither.
It's hard for us to debug without the class of UniFi AP-AC-LITE.
Can you connect UniFi AP-AC-LITE to a PoE switch which has GUI that it can show its class and tell us the class?

There are several different devices having issues, not just this AP. Buy one.

Not aware that switches show the class - most Netgear switches for sure don't.
