In line, so the cheap thing can blow and you don’t have to replace a more 
expensive thing.  Plus not all folks will want fusing so it would drive up the 
cost of a surge suppressor if I added fusing.  

Poly switches are the problem.  That POE switch actually protects all the ports 
with a polyswitch.  But they are very slow to blow.  They are there for fire 
code reasons, not port protection.  If there was a fast blow polyswitch this 
problem would not exist.

I've got dumb questions:

Do you picture this going in-line with a surge protector or replacing a surge 
protector?

Have you considered a resettable fuse (aka polyswitch)?  Nobody has to truck 
roll if it cools off and resets in a few seconds.

Thanks,
Adam
