Subject: [AFMUG] Cat5/6 POE splicing while live?
Is it possible to cut into a POE injected Cat5/6 run without frying
stuff?
I think I've done it on regular Ethernet without causing damage to the
Ethernet port, but maybe I'm pushing it with that too?
I know the safest way is to unplug the Ethernet cable, then do the
splice/work/end on it, then plug it back in, but would be really nice
if I didn't have to bother the home owner when fixing/splicing a live
run to the outside of the house.
