WS-12-250-DC continuous power cycling

Connecting 8 cognex cameras to ports 1-8 with POE on a 12 port WISP switch.

We have done 4 of these setups, so far two of the four switches we have configured continuously power cycle.

I have confirmed updates to 1.5.26 firmware.

Also, I have statically configured switch IP to 172.16.17.100....

Aside from that, I am only using the Ports tab to set each port 1-8 for 48V .75 amp settings.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

If I bring up the ports, one by one, the system will be stable... However, I cannot get the switch to survive a reboot. Once I reboot, the switch will continuously power cycle.

We have 22 switches to configure, but since 2 of the first 4 are doing this, I am reaching out for guidance.

Cheers and best regards!

kinda sounds like your power source you are using for the switch doesn't have enough current capability to handle the load surge when switch is turning on...
