I'm contemplating getting a Netgear FS108P switch which has 4 power over ethernet ports. I'm curious, however, as to whether or not I can use the powered ports to drive my Squeezeboxen. I've got an original Squeezebox and a Squeezebox 2 for what it's worth. I seem to recall reading somewhere (perhaps in the original documentation that I can't lay my hands on at the moment) that it was possible but Googling and forum searching didn't reveal anything.
None of the Squeezeboxen supports PoE. Accoding to Netgear website the FS108P supplies PoE according to 802.3af (48VDC) and has auto-sensing for it, so you'd have to have some 802.3af compliant end-device to recieve the power and then convert it to something the SB can handle, which is like 5V/2A rgds /andreas _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
