Powering Axis PTZ cameras from WS-12-250-DC

I need to power some Axis PTZ cameras at a remote 48V solar site. I'm seeing a bunch of different requirements for IEEE 802.3at Type 2 Class 4 and IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 Class 6. I'm a bit confused on how this matches up to the Netonix and if it is capable of supplying the correct power or if i need to buy a DC PoE midspan. Any help identifying if this will work and what mode to run it in would be appreciated.
If i'm reading
this and
this correctly Netonix supports the 802.3af/at Mode B on the 48v setting and 802.3bt on the 48vh setting. Am i correct?
Thanks,
Phil

I'm wondering about this one too.
I've recently tried powering up both Bosch and Panasonic PTZ CCTV cameras (802.3bt Class 4 or 6 required) with a WS-6-Mini and both inform me that I've plugged them into a Class 0 power supply and they can't go to full power. PoE Smart doesn't make a difference either way.
I don't have the same problem with the HikVision PTZ cameras, but that's not super surprising!
I have LLDP and Discovery both turned on on the Netonix, and was hoping that it would LLDP negotiate to Class 4 per that biamp link Phil posted above.
Any possibility of a fix in firmware? I'd be happy to test beta for you :)
We're using midspan injectors for now, but that makes the installation footprint so much bigger - I would prefer to just have Minis running my world!
Thanks for the excellent product

I'm having the same issue. Just the LLDP reply we are missing. As far as I can figure. So far Bosch, Hanwha and Panasonic PTZs are complaining. The Hikvision doesn't. Must have been told not to complain!
Awesome gear as usual guys. Just make them faster!
Thanks
