Hi Jaka,
That's unfortunate. When you say there are "plans to enable it", can you elaborate? In future devices or firmware for existing devices?
Also, just to confirm, for an OAK-D Pro PoE, the only way to power the device is 48v via PoE?

It's a bug really, was supposed to work. So if we can, this will likely be part of future fw. Existing devices ofc, if not possible we can replace your device for one that works.

You can power it via M8, but then the comms have to also go through the M8.
Thanks,

Thank you for the clarification. We would love for this to work. From a power system perspective it's a lot easier for us to provide 5V DC than buck up to 48V just for PoE. So we are very interested in this being an option (power through M8 and comms through M12).
Any sense for if this may be fixed and when? I'm happy to chat more about it as well.
Thanks,
Mike
Ha! That's awesome. I didn't have one in hand when I asked but received on yesterday. I just tried it and it works. Thank you!
Hi all,
Sorry if I jump in this thread. I'd like to use a OAK-D-Pro PoE.
If I correctly understand, I can power the device at 5V through the M8 cable, instead than with PoE.
Two questions:
Thanks!

Yes for both questions. Data should be sent through M12 so depthai handles it as a network device.
Thanks,

Hi all,
One question to add about powering from an external 5V source:
The context is we need to verify our power supply can successfully power the device (it has an overcurrent protection switch).
Thanks!

Hi @jakaskerl thank you that exactly answers my question. Cheers.
