I know someone who is running 48 Linksys SPA942 phones off of that switch.

Hello,
That would the cabling from the server room to the wall jacks and to the
cubicles. The place doesn't have walls. I can do the cabling too. So, very
flexible.
Do you know if all the 48 phones will fire up? Linksys Switch has 15.5W per
port if only 24 port is used. It has 7.7W if all ports are used for POE.
Thanks

Trying RAID 5 with this. Client needs to record every single call. 8 hours

1- Not sure how many of the 25 pair should run. Would POE be fine over
this type of cable? (interference of unshielded cable with POE). How 48
Aastra 51i power up using the forementioned Linksys switch?> > 2-

No cables bought so far. I am flexible with dropping as many cables as I
want. What type of cable should be used?> > > > Thanks,> Date: Sun, 7 Dec
