I've been struck by several things: 1) How terrible a lot of small business development courses are 2) How many small business owners don't fully understand how to make the most of their business. With that in mind: https://www.facebook.com/everyoneplunges/posts/1397379503939932 Not specific

Correct. It will not damage the 450m. That is how we are powering many of these units. Be mindful that the power scheme is the same for both the DC connection and the RackInjector. Meaning don't mix + and -48V, I haven't tried but it seems like a very bad idea. On Thu, Mar 4, 2021 at 10:09 AM Josh
