I have a load of Unifi stuff here and it all supports active PoE, but works just fine with passive. The PoE outputs all autonegotiate.

- somat 3y agoEh, it is not like they are outright lying. when you dig into the specs they do say 24v passive. but when someone says poe I expect 48v 802.3af compatible poe. I don't know how true it is but I heard horror stories where ubiquiti 24v gear would activate, then fry when hooked to a real poe source. personally I suspect it was a 48v passive source. I did a quick informal survey of the ui store and it looks like the newest generation(U6) all handles 48v while the prior generation(AC) the pro models were 48v and the lite and long range models were 24v passive.
