    One is mounted on a detached garage and the only way to run a poe wire over to it was through the same conduit as the electrical wire


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The other is located near the main service feed for the house


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Both have a lot of electrical interference and required shielded wiring to work protect the communication


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    These are grounded on both sides and only one end should be plugged into a grounded port for the shielding to work properly


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I purchased a switch that was grounded as well as a poe provider
