PoE-Cut-Off randomly

RouterOS General
1

Hi guys,

i have a PowerBox Pro mounted outside on the tower. The PowerBox Pro is powered via ETHER-1 POE-IN.

There is a Rocket-M5 connected on ether-4 and a PowerBeam M5 connected on ether-5.
Both devices will be powered via the PowerBox Pro.

The both APs are rebooting randomly at the same time. PoE-Priority is 10 for M5 and 1 for PBE. So if there is a issue with the power-feed M5 should be disconnected first. But in my case both devices are rebooting at the same time.

There is no information in the logs. If ROS will power-cycle a port, or will disable poe on a particular port, this will be logged, right?
What can cause this isse if there is no information in the logs?

Have you looked at the power consumption of the Rocket-M5?
Maybe the power box cannot handle this.
Is it possible to power the powerbox with the power jack?
Maybe this solves your problem.
