I think it’s bad for the GDTs also if they just sit there conducting until you roll a truck. Depending on the amount of power they are dissipating. Like 1 amp with an arc voltage of 10 volts would be 10 watts. If on the other hand the POE shuts down and keeps cycling trying to come back up, the arc will go out and the GDT will reset to a non conducting state.
I read somewhere there are special GDTs with a mechanical shorting clip that kicks in if the GDT gets too hot. I don’t think Chuck uses those though.

Most PoE bricks (like the kind that come with Cambium SMs, Ubiquiti, etc.) seem to be able to hand brief shorts just fine without damaging anything... on a lot of them the power light will blink if they're shorted. I don't know about the higher powered kind of stuff like would come with licensed radios, since I generally try to be a bit more careful with that sort of thing. I'm pretty sure anything that's 802.3at/af will be fine.

While the Packetflux soft fuse will trip, interrupt the arc, and then reset itself. So my question is about other types of POE, like those used for licensed radios. Either a regular brick type POE, or something like the Cambium/Ceragon outdoor DC powered POE. Should we avoid using the Cat6/GDT surge suppressors with those and instead use a GigE-HV model?

Even with nothing but a cat5 cable it will have errors. Surge suppressors that use solid state components exacerbate this problem. Even the surge products they manufacture will cause this problem. So, I created the CAT6 100% Gas Discharge Tube line of products to prevent these errors on Cambium. They fire a bit slower than a solid state surge suppressor but are very robust. As popular as they are, I presume people are starting to use them on everything. Personally I would use the GIGE line everywhere I could as it does offer better protection.
