You gotta make sure the power company has a street light tariff. Rocky Mountain Power does.

This is nice because the electrician can wire it up at the base of the pole and my guys can run DC up to whatever. If you want POE, connect it to a POE injector or a 6 mini in a 6 mini case located up top.

A typical application is tapping power from street lights/poles. If we make something we'd like to accommodate as many applications as possible. If something already exists for this please let me know (of if Chuck wants to make it I'm cool with that too!). Option 1: AC in, a few sets of PoEs out (so for example, 3 separate pairs of PoE injector ports = data in, data + DC out). Let's call this one the dumb option. Option 2: an outdoor switch with an uplink and a few PoE ports out. This one could be smarter but would be a little higher cost. Option 3: you'll never use this because it requires a high voltage license/permit in your area and not worth the hassle.
