The port is labeled 18-24v, but the label on the bottom of the router says 12-24v. The open-mesh web site says it's compatible with 12-24v passive POE. Following the suggestion in the <R43> blue box commentary works fine.

If we had a 3D printer, a radio mount with a built-in strain relief for the Ethernet cable is something I'd be asking our students to investigate.
