Is Cambium moving to an 802.3af future?  At some point I'd love to see
that.  Thought I read the 450i or d was doing that.  At least then we could
source our own parts if we wanted to.  I can't recall exactly, but I'm
pretty sure a camera I installed in the last year or two had a very similar
design to its POE, can't remember the brand though.

I'd like to see both form factors available for POE's though.  The old
style for residential stuff and the new one for any kind of enterprise
stuff where we need to mount things away from the switch or router.  The
old style never really fit in rack or wall mount systems and was tough to
keep tidy (relatively speaking).  And sometimes, trying to fit the wall
wart onto a full surge bar was a PITA.

However, the comment "so easy a caveman could do it" is so absolutely true
- you really had to go out of your way to plug it in wrong.
