Jim,
MicroSemi (PowerDsine) 7000 series or 9000 series
The 9000 is 802.3at compliant (30+ Watts).
If you select models with "M" in the reference those are SNMP manageable
The 9000 can also be powered by DC (e.g., if you have UPS in the closet)
We have those all over campus and like them a lot.
Our first generation of powerDsine lasted 8 years with 1 unit that
failed
over 120 midpsan deployed.

I know this question has been asked before, but it wasn't anything
that was on our radar at the time and experiences may have evolved
over time.
We have a possible need for PoE midspan devices, not so much for
APs, but for security cameras (which could number in the thousands
before they're done) -- many of them to be located in buildings
without any PoE Ethernet switches and with no life-cycle network
funds on the horizon.
Ideally, I'd like something that's SNMP-manageable and has ssh (ok,
I'll settle for telnet) capability. 8-16 ports would be nice.
Anything like that out there these days and, if so, what's the
experience been with them?
Thanks in advance.
