We currently only have one UTP cable to an AP location.
The alternative is one GigE drop with either local power or
proprietary UTP
based power (including possible pre-standard 802.3at).
One thing we did for the last 3 years is to pull siamese cable to each
AP location, setting up the infrastructure in advance for a technology
change.
What will probably screw us as you mention is not enough PoE via
802.3af.
Having an AP with bg on 2.4 and MIMO on 5 will probably require 802.3at.
So in addition to replacing your AP's, you are now also forklifting your
PoE switches...
