Hi team,

 

Can we provide PoE for another AP from the PoE switch via passthrough port of the MR36H?

In theory I believe that should work as it’s purely a pass-through port.  No experience myself of doing this however.

 

Infact….ill try and test that out as I have a couple of MR36h’s here

Thank you so much for your reply DarrenOC!

I believe that too. But, I need sure to design for my project. 

I would appreciate it if you could try and help me update the results soon.

Hi @CloudTech , yep, it works.

 

My setup is:

 

PoE switch > Port 1 connected to Gig port on MR36H

 

PoE Switch > Port 2 connected to Pass-Through port on MR36H

 

MR32 connected to Port 1 on MR36H
