We have several devices that operate as PoE. We have to use power bricks in line with the ethernet cable. As you can guess this adds up to a wiring mess behind desks, etc. The whole idea with PoE was to eliminate this kind of thing.
I've since found that PoE network switches have become very affordable now. If I can switch to a PoE switch for powered devices that would be a win-win. The only question I the power demand and output is a universal thing. I believe it is 45v delivered over the ethernet cable to power a IP phones and that sort of device.
Is this a universal standard for PoE devices?
