I don’t think it’ll do what you’re expecting. Mikrotik POE is just passive POE (i.e. dc constantly supplied over ethernet. It’ll be at whatever voltage your mikrotik plug pack is (usually they’re 24v). 803.2af is up to 15w at 44vdc, and requires a handshake (see https://www.ieee.li/pdf/viewgraphs/introduction_to_poe_802.3af_802.3at.pdf for details) You’re probably going to need to either keep using the plugpack, or put a POE injector in the line to the phone Regards, DG On Thu, 18 Nov 2021 at 8:56 pm, Karl Auer <kauer@nullarbor.com.au> wrote:
Just installed an RB4011 in a client site. They had an existing Yealink W60B phone there, powered by a plug-pack. The specs on the plug pack say 600mA output.
Tried plugging the phone in to the poE port (10) on the RB4011, with no success. The W60B showed no evidence of seeing power. Tried setting poe-out on the port to "forced-on", no change.
The Yealink doco says it requires "IEEE 802.3af, Class 1" PoE. I can't find any such spec for the RB4011, just lots of statements that it is passive PoE.
Is there a trick or should I give up?
