PoE GS108T wit Ubiquiti Rocket M5

 I'm trying to get a Ubiquiti Rocket M5 to power up with my Prosafe GS108T.   I plug the cat6 into port 1 of the GS108T but nothing is happening.  I get ethernet if I use the power injector but no PoE on it's own.  Is there a setting I need to turn on in the GS108T for the PoE port 1 to send voltage?

Hi audiotek,

 

Welcome to the community! 🙂

 

The GS108Tv2 is a powered device (PD) and its not a power sourcing equipment (PSE).  It can be powered on either by:

 

1. A device that is IEEE 802.3af compliant (PSE) via port 1. 

2. By using the power adapter that came with it.  

 

Since the GS108Tv2 is a powered device (PD), you cannot use it to power on the Ubiquiti Rocket M5 via its port 1.

 

I recommend you the GS110TP switch because it is a power sourcing equipment (PSE) that complies to the IEEE 802.3af standard.  It has 8 PoE ethernet ports and you can use this switch to power on up to 8 powered devices.

Thanks for the reply

 

Unfortunately I bought the GS108T a few weeks ago.  I wish I knew about the other model with PoE
