The 4501 manual says:

Please note that there is limited power available for the two PCI expansion
connectors. There are only 3W available on the 3.3V power pins, there is 
no power available on the +12V and –12V power pins. And when using the DC 
Input Jack as the power source, only very limited amount of power is 
available on the 5V pins, as the 5V is then supplied by a linear 
regulator.

so no 12V...

yes, i didn't hold out much hope of it working (i asked cos i have a 
net4501 kicking around doing nothing).
