Fair enough.

Though -- this is more than a cable, since it at least has a voltage divider, if not a voltage requlator, to drop the supply voltage. So you have a rather subtle potential failure mode.

Just my opinion, but I prefer to conflate POE and IEEE 802.3af. I wouldn't want to buy an "ethernet" device that used a CAT-5 cable but only received Morse Code.

It is if you buy the PoE injector cable instead of the self-powered one.
