One little caveat: Depending on the PoE mode, you may need to use all four pairs of the Cat 5 cable of your network wiring. I'm not sure which mode the Polycom PoE cables prefer, but Mode A PoE uses the same two pairs (1-2, 3-6) as 100BASE-TX Ethernet, while Mode B PoE uses the other two pairs (4-5, 7-8). Most good network wiring will use all four pairs, but some wiring installations will only use two pairs, so it's probably a good idea to just double-check that yours uses all four pairs. - Noah _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
