Hi,
I picked up some Cisco IP phones 7940, however, was foolish to not catch the
fact that they do not come with power supplies..  Cisco power supplies for
them are  $150 (Can you believe it..) or more from a retailer I know.  I
found one place that sold compatible ones for $15 aus but with a 8 week turn
around..

Can anyone point me in the direction where I can do some Mail Order of
48volt power supplies (240 AC in Australia)


I would not buy the Cisco supply. I use the 3com 3cnjpse on most of our Cisco 7940g and 7960g phones. They are available in the US for less than $20 each. You need a custom wired Cat 5 cable (easy) from the power injector to the phone but this allows one less cord plugged into the back of the phone cluttering your desktop.

That is a link to the instructions for making your own POE injector cable to use a standard 48v POE injector with a 79xx phone.



I was just looking earlier and there are alot advertised on Ebay. Sub �20 is a good price. Shipped from Hong Kong usually tho.
