This isn't a switch. It's just mid-line injector for POE, but you can interchange for Cisco and Polycom.
We deployed them in the network here because we had a number of ports on the switch that had no need for PoE and we didn't want to pay Extreme Networks for PoE on ports we knew we weren't going to use it with. http://www.red-hawk.com/network_products/bl8000.htm They're not cheap. The 20 port chassis here is about $1000-$1200, but it is an enterprise grade solution and the other nice part about these is that each module is hot-swappable so you can replace one port at a time when/if you blow something. Depending on the budget for your project and the ratio of ports that need PoE vs those that don't in your environment, this may or may not be a fit for you.
