They certainly do have quality issues. A friend of mine had to mod an M2 to make it work with PoE over long cables. http://hofmeyr.de/PoE%20power%20fix%20for%20NanoStationM2/ The manufacturer obviously didn't test the hardware with 100m cable length.

That really does not sound like a quality issue at all. Or do they encourage providing power via their PoE-like solution over such long distances? Ethernet is specified for 100 meters, I think, but proprietary powering over the same cable not necessarily so.
