WAX620 - 802.3at PoE+ Injector Recommendations?
Does anybody have a recommendation for an 802.3at (PoE+) injector to use with the WAX620 (AX3600) access point? I bought a Ubiquiti 802.3at injector (https://store.ui.com/collections/unifi-access...

Thanks Mark_V, appreciate your suggestion on the PoE+ switch.
To anyone following the post, I just purchased a TP-Link TL-POE160S PoE+ injector and it's working fine with the WAX620.
The original Ubiquiti PoE+ injector (U-POE-at) puts out 48V / 30W - which should meet the 802.11at standard for power at the powered device (42.5V) but doesn't meet the standard (50V) for output at the power source. Why that matters to the AP is a little beyond me, but I'm no engineer, so for now I'm just going to use the TP-Link injector.

You should be able to use any injector supporting poe+ but it is recommended to use a switch that supports poe+. There are unmanaged switches that supports poe+ which cost less and will be able to power additional devices if needed.
If you want an injector make sure to find one that has 50v/60w output. Other users might be able to recommended.
