Did I just fry a new FortiAP 223E access point
Long time lurker, first time poster. Hi everyone.
We’re upgrading some FortiAP 221C access points with FortiAP 223E access points. Straight swap I thought and plugged the 223E into the same PoE injector which was powering the 221C, a Ubiquiti branded PoE-AF injector - UniFi PoE Adapter (15W) - Tech Specs (ui.com). The document that came with the 223E AP says to use a PoE AF injector.
This worked fine on my test bench. The 223E powered up and I was able to add it to the controller, then took it to its permanent location where is failed to power up at all. Now it won’t power up on my test bench either.
I contacted my reseller who said I needed to use the GPI-130 PoE injector which is a PoE AT specification? I purchased one which has worked with a second 223E on the same cable that the first one failed on using the AF injector but I can’t understand why?
