WAX630 LLDP PoE 802.3bt issue

Dear All 

 

Having issues with a new WAX630 not receiving the correct power from out 802.3bt PoE++ switch although i do also have  WAX610 units on the same switch powered via 802.3at with no issues.

 

AP console displays the following: All radios are down due to insufficient power (PoE 802.3af). Kindly use PoE 802.3at/802.3bt or Power Adapter as power input

 

Looking at the LLDP i can see the PD power request (see below) but the switch refuses to allocate any power and im not sure why, ive conected the swiitch manufacture support whom are blaming the AP for this issue

 

Any pointers on how to solve this would be appricated.

Thanks in adavance

    Hi dhi 

     

    Could you please let us know the switch model and how devices are connected to your switch? You can share the screen shot of the allocated power budget on the switch.

     

    Thanks,

    Raghu

  • did you ever figure this out? i am having the same issue.

     

    four WAX630 Ap's all going into a M4250-10GxF POE++ switch and the poe settings are set to 802.3bt but the ap's are still only getting 802.3at

     

    Thanks

      Hi dustinm529  This is fixed. Please check the next available firmware which is scheduled to release in this week.

        Sweet thanks so much!
        Is it for the switch or for the AP’s?

        Also now the switch isn’t giving POE at all and in the POE section under “power status” it just says “power off”

        Any chance I can get an early firmware update?
