X450-G2 Can't it supply Class 7 POE?

X450-G2 Can't it supply Class 7 POE?

We are replacing Cisco Access points (3802i) with Juniper Mist AP36.  The Juniper console is showing two ap's at one of our sites in reduced functionality mode due to POE.  In other sites these are looking fine with Class 7 POE displayed (5220 switch stacks).

This is a two switch 48 port poe 450G2 stack, each switch with dual power supplies.  I've reset the port and also added this line just in case:
configure lldp port 2:23 advertise vendor-specific dot3 power-via-mdi with-classification

Still only showing class 4.  
How can I get this to do class 7 poe?

AP's working but according to Juniper Mist it says
Power Source: LLDP
Power Request Count: 1
Power Allocated: 25.5 W
Power Requested: 25.5 W
Power Required: 27.9 W
Operating Mode: 5 GHz (4x4), 6 GHz (2x2), 2.4 GHz (2x2).

On another site that works the Juniper system says that the Power Allocated, Requested and Required are all 27.9 W and operating mode is "Full Power".

The x450-G2-48P models support 802.3af PoE up to Class 4 (30W).
This is generally true for all 'P' model switches.

The 5520-48W models support 802.3bt PoE up to Class 8 (90W).
This is generally true for all 'W' model switches.

Some devices require more LLDP advertisements for software-based classification:

Hope that helps!

Ok so odd class 4 claims 30W, the device wants 27 but the switch can only put out 25.  Where's my other 5 Watts I paid for?
The only thing it does is make 6 GHz wifi 2x2 MIMO instead of 4x4.  Not a great loss.  Most of our stuff is 5 GHz anyway and they keep that at 4x4.

The 450G2 I think goes end of service life in January 2028 so we'll budget to replace 3 of our sites that have them by that date.  All of our other sites have 5520's.  I don't think we'll bother with injectors just for 4x4 6 Ghz.
