Hi DickDay0,
I'm afraid that we're not that quite familiar with Ubiquiti devices particularly the instant 802.3af adapter you have mentioned if its going to be compatible with the GS105PE switch or any NETGEAR switch. We don't have any Ubiquiti device/s to try to test it to any NETGEAR switch/es. You may try to post your inquiry on the Ubiquiti forum site.

Sorry to drag this out, and I realize I am asking about another brand of equipment. If this needs to be moved to a different forum, or removed altogether, I understand.
This will be my last question... I am told that Ubiquiti's PoE does not conform to the industry standard, which is why your Netgear GS105PE does not recognize the Ubiquiti PoE cameras.
Ubiquiti sells something called an Instant 802,3af adapter that provides an industry standard PoE connection. I believe this in-line adapter goes between the camera and the pass-through switch, forcing the switch to see the camera.
Does any of this sound correct?
Thanks

That's what I assumed but thought I would give it a shot.
Thanks you.
