I reverse engineered Mikrotiks GigE POE. They use a LINK transformer I
believe. I have used LINK and PULSE. LINK claims that PULSE knocked them
off. There was a lawsuit. I think Forrest knows some of the details.

We found that their implementation of Gig POE shorted out 100mb/s POE
devices.. Not like the Mikrotik Gig POE's that would handle both
without any device damage... I couldn't believe it at first thought I
made a wiring mistake and so destroyed a second radio before pinning
stuff out...

They seem to mass produce with limited quality control if any! If your
going to use, I would certainly do your due diligence in testing and
vetting their manufacturing processes and product availability

Well that’s a horrible review.
Maybe I won’t use their products…

Buyer beware...
We had horrendous issues with Texas Wifi products. After Cambium stoped
producing th PhiHong POEs we found Texas Wifi and they made a comparable
solution that we purchased. Over time every single one of them failed.
We lost count above 500, and needless to say we moved on and went with
the Cambium POE.

Max power is 23 watts.

Assuming you're not powering anything besides the board you
shouldn't have much to worry about.

Just found out about POE Texas, will be ordering some of their
stuff soon.
I’m interested in powering mikrotik RB4011 so I guess a 1A
might cover it, but like to be able to give more power with 24v.

He may be doing similar to what our ham radio HSMM group did
for some cost-effective setups, one (or 2 redundant, using a
diode device) 24V supply feeding a 5$ standard 1:4 to 1:8 DC
splitter (used for security camera systems) then to PoE
injectors. We're doing that for Ubnt/MT radios using 4$
100mbit offbrand injectors and it's nice way to have something
small and DC, with some redundancy, for cheap.

What are you powering? 24V at 1.8A is way more than most
CPE, but most gigabit APs and backhauls want 48V not 24V.
Also not sure why you want a separate wall wart and a
round DC power plug rather than injector and power supply
in one with an AC cord.
There’s also the question of whether you’re looking for
passive or 802.3af with signature detection and a status
light.
But you’d think between Tycon and POE Texas you could find
whatever you want.

For gigabit PoE injector it all depends on the pinout that
you need - what pinout/radio do you want to power? Why do
the manufacturer solutions not work?
For PS, do you need plastic-case "consumer" PSU or is a
semi-open-frame OK?

I’m looking for a new/good supplier of a Gigabit POE
injector that has the female DC receptacle on it and
is known to work well.
Also looking for good PS too, 24v around 1.8A would be
nice, again with the round DC male end on about 6’
cord from a wall wart is fine.
For some reason can’t seem to find a good vendor of
either of those items, that are known good over time
and decent price.
