Model: EAP235-Wall  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have both an EAP235-wall and an EAP225-outdoor AP's, and a proper 802.3af/at injector (Tripp-lite NPOE-30W-1G). 

 

The wall plate works with the tripp-lite injector, but not the outdoor AP.  I tried both directly plugging the outdoor AP to the injector and to the PoE out port of the wall plate, the outdoor AP does not light up.  

 

I tested the outdoor AP plugged in it's 48V injector. That works, so the AP is good.

 

What's happening?  Both AP's are 802.3af compliant, and the wall is also 802.3at compliant.   I need to daisy-chain those AP's because of wiring constraints, and the specs lead me to think it works.

I found my solution: one has to enable the PoE passthrough in the wall AP's web administration portal. As for the direct connection to my Tripp-lite PoE injector, it seems I did not plug it right in my frustrated state.
