WS-12-400-AC High Watts

Thu Aug 07, 2025 2:47 pm

We have a strange issue on two of our switches that have a small number of errors on ports 11 and 12 and also have high wattages showing. Both towers use Ubiquiti Prism radios, and it is only happening on these two towers out of over 100 switches we have out there. We have moved the two radios into other ports, and it does not move to the new ports. We have tested all cables as good, but we just think it is odd that it is the same port on both switches and just wanted to know if there is something we are missing. We have not changed the radio units yet.

Most likely a blown current sensor on the ports.

It's not an uncommon fault, especially at sites with inadequate grounding.

Can also happen if you plug device in/out with power enabled on a port.

Storms can also cause this kind of damage. I would say a large coincidence that the only 2 cases you have are the same port.
