Further investigation reveals Ubiquiti devices use Passive PoE rather than 802.3AF or AT, i.e. a Ubiquiti PoE injector will not work with standard PoE devices.

I believe the Ubiquiti PoE adapters are proprietary. I've tried to plug a Ubiquiti AP into a PoE(+) switch and didn't get power unless I used one of their PoE injectors.

 

Aerohive devices will run off any 802.3AF or AT standard PoE injector, such as a Phihong POE36U-1AT, or PoE switch that supports 802.3AF or AT.
