WS-6-MINI Barrel connector

Tue May 19, 2015 4:21 pm

Many of you have asked about the WS-6-MINI Barrel connector.
Here is the mechanical specifications.

We do eventually plan to sell an adapter for this but as of yet we do not.

The Power plug is not standard to any Ubiquiti or MikroTik power supplies that I have in stock.
Not including a transformer with a $160.00 switch with an odd size plug is surprising to me.
Is there a reason for the odd plug size?

Is there a reason that the Ubiquiti jack is not standard with ours? - LOL

No particular reason, I suppose Dave just selected it based on availability.

We do plan to offer an optional power brick with the mating connector probably this summer.

I am not aware of any UBNT barrel connector power bricks that are 48-50V 1.3A or higher? What UBNT power adapter are you referring to?

I also am not familiar with Microtic at all.

It is standard enough for me. I have a lot of stuff with that exact plug. Including the 48 VDC power supply that comes with CISCO phones that usually goes in the trash....

I got a couple of these in. They appear to fit correctly. I'm powering my switch with the tycon injector right now, so no need to try it.

All of our power supplies are 12v and 24v with the exceptions of a few -48v from our licensed links. None of our barrel connectors seem to fit even if we wanted to chance it.
Would it be possible to post links for some power supplies we could buy either poe or barrel. We'd prefer not to take a chance damaging the switch with the wrong power supply.

Thanks
Doug

Well one POE adapter that works well is the POE adapter used with the airFIBER 24.

If you are using our other switches to power airFIBERS elsewhere you will have a few extra now?

you can buy replacement POE adapters for the airFIBER units at most resellers.

We do plan to sell our own power supplies SOON!

WS-6-MINI jack dimensions and polarity

Thu Jul 02, 2015 8:44 am

Hi,
I couldn't find in the WS-6-MINI specsheet "ws-specsheet.pdf" what is the size of the jack and what its polarity is. Mikrotik 48V 2A jack doesn't fit.
May be this one will work ?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/AC-100V-240V-Co ... 1238460213
5.5mm x 2.5mm
inside +
outside -
It would be nice to find this information in the spec sheet in the future.
