The Sipura 841 will support PoE. These are not shipping from Sipura until
the end of November, ready for early December. The Zultys Zip2 does not
support PoE.

Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Polycom IP 300 PoE? Sipura instead?
I'm ordering some more phones - I have the Polycom IP 500's now and I
like them. I need some less expensive phones, and I'd like to stay
with all Polycoms for ease of administration. I've heard, though,
that
the IP 300's don't support PoE even though their brochures say they
do.
Has anybody have firsthand experience with them? Is this true?
Yep. They have no onboard POE chip, hence the reduced cost. Polycom
gets
away saying they support POE by selling you at $40 cable that contains
either a Cisco or 802.3af compliant dongle.
Well, that's good to know. At $40 bucks a pop, the total price with
the phone is still cheaper than the competition for the 500, but that
makes the 300 rather unattractive in comparison to some other phones.
Anybody have any suggestions for a good, simple 2 line SIP phone that
supports PoE? Has anybody seen the Sipura SPA-841 yet? Will it
support PoE? Does the Zultys Zip2 support PoE?
