Its ALWAYS on the wiki :) Good question, but the 7940 is NOT a proper 802.3af (POE) device. It is a polarity problem, which can be fixed with a crimp tool. With 1 minute of crimping I have seen them work with the DLINK injectors. Cheers Cian -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Christopher L.

I've got several cisco 7940's all running using cisco power cubes. However, my boss wants me to switch just a few over to poe, but doesn't want to fork out the dough for a nice cisco poe switch, or anybody else's poe switch for that matter. So my question is, what is the '99.999% sure/safe' poe injector solution that most people are using for the cisco phones? Right now I'm looking at buying the 3-Com 3CNJPSE (qty 2-3) to power the few specific locations where a power cube just wouldn't look right, like a conference room table for example. :) I know this solution, thanks to the fact that it is a 'hack', is far from the 99.999% I just stated, but it also seems to be the only low-end solution for poe. Am I right, or just plain blind? Thanks, Chris -- Christopher L. Wade Unistar-Sparco Computers, Inc.
