We are running SNOM360's off a Planet POE Switch (FGSW-2620PVS)
This gives us 24 x 10/100 with PoE on all (but the GigE) ports (Power
over the data lines - not on unused copper pairs) and 2 GigE ports
(Copper + SPF). We then plug the Asterisk machine into one of the GigE's
and the other GigE into the rest of the network.
This works well with a centralised wiring closet - now all the phones
are on their own switch - making interference more un-lightly. The
Switch allows you to look at the power consumption - which technically
means you can judge when there could be a "power problem". Oh - pretty
well priced too.. we paid about US $680 for the switch - which makes it
'low end' cost wise. Currently has no SNMP :-( - but has a Linux
friendly web front-end including setup of QoS, Access control and PoE
power consumption.

OK - so not many ports are active - but its interesting to see that each
port seems to be consuming different levels of power...
