I’ve created a single battery tool (we call it SOB for Survey On Battery) for a multitude of uses and cross-platform devices. The SOB supports 24V regular and reverse PoE and also 48V 4-pair PoE+. It will be used for the temporary power of both SMs and APs.
With the SOB we can test AP placement in remote locations with nothing more than a compact battery tool. For instance, when finding the ideal placement of CBRS APs, the SOB allows us to make best use of changing geographical features (hills, trees, etc.) by testing real-world performance to the connected SMs. RF modeling software is a great, but we use it as a compliment to real-world testing. The SOB allows us to be efficiently mobile and flexible in those real-world validation tests. We have SMs that consume mid-40’s and APs that consume low 300’s in wattage.

I need 4-pair 48v PoE at 350 watts and a gig port; as far as I can tell the PowerLink can’t handle that wattage or gig port.

I’ve been developing a new compact battery survey tool and had need for a tiny gigabit switch. I discovered BotBlox, a company in the UK, whom has developed some creative and extremely compact switching solutions. The website and products has a Packetflux feel (which I like). <https://botblox.io/collections/standard-series> Products - Standard Series - BotBlox<https://botblox.io/collections/standard-series> botblox.io<https://botblox.io/collections/standard-series> <Icon_png_color_triummed_32x32.png><https://botblox.io/collections/standard-series> Thought I’d pass along the resource.
