Just a heads up - both these switches do not appear to supply full PoE power to all ports simultaneously, rather they can supply half the power (approx 7 watts) to all ports.

Now depending on what phones you use and how many there are, this may or may not be an issue.

I used the equivalent 48 port Linksys PoE switch recently with about 35 Aastra phones - it wasn't an issue once the phones were up and running, but if the PoE switch was powered on with all the phones connected (power failure situation), the simultaneous power draw was too much for the switch. A large number of phones would not start up or had to be restarted individually.

Something to keep in mind.

Note, I don't supply any hardware or competing products.

Lloyd,

You can get something like this from Linksys:
http://www.voipgizmos.com/shopexd.asp?id=384

It has 24 ports but simultaneously powers up 12 ports. Price is pretty
affordable.

If you want to power 24 at the same time - you should consider this
one (it is $35+):
