I have a very large span to cover (650 ft) ish...

Is it possible for example to put three switches in a row as long as I keep under the power draw (W)?

Example: WS-12-250-AC -- WS-6-MINI -- WS-6-MINI?

The end load would be a UBNT Bullet M2 and Titanium RocketM

thank you

Yes it should work as long as you keep your total wattage below the max.
You'll have to go from ports 1-4 at 48Vh on the WS-12 to port 1 on the first WS6, out port 2 and back in to port 1 on the second WS6.

I just wanted to state, this configuration of WS-12 - WS6 - WS6 worked on the bench and at the tower site! (Powering a UBNT TitaniumM5 and Bullet) :cheers:

Total draw of power from the WS12 is 20.7 watts on the 48VH port.

I am getting errors occasionally in the log from the last WS6 in the chain of:
"Jun 2 11:29:01 switch[741]: 48V is out of range (42.5V)"


They do not last long and not sure if this is something I should worry about.

Thank you again Netonix!

Upgrade to v1.4.1 as we increased the range before it throws an error but it might be 43V in v1.4.1 which is why you're getting the error.

It will not hurt anything and will run fine.
