@Job, there are only 2 causes :
a) On the pairs that you are using power over, the copper in the cable is too impure and is causing in-line resistance. That means check you power supply unit, it must be heating up quite a lot.
b) The power adaptor is supplying current in milliamps eg 100mA, 200mA and is only rated for patch cable lengths.
Fix to a) : Get a high quality cable
Fix to b) : Get a higher Milliamps adapter, preferably 1000mA or 1 Amp.
HTHs.
Well Aki i think you could be correct on the cable quality. Well the adaptor is rated ot 0.8 A (800mA) . @Moses which cable would you recommend i get to power it up at 40 metres away?
