LOL the guys at Streakwave or most anywhere else don't have to open up the box and have things fall on them (I'm joking of course...it's been a long time since I was on that tight of a budget. But the point remains...the PoE's create a TON of clutter in a rack/box/enclosure/shed/whatever...

And here I am thinking all this time that I was the only one who would appreciate a device like this! I spoke with someone at Streakwave a few months ago about this and basically got a blank stare response. He had no idea why I would want such a thing....<sigh>

So, to any manufacturers up to the task, here is (IMO) a starting point of a bullet point list for the PoE device I'm envisioning:

(1)  Multi-port models.  (e.g. 6, 12 & 24 ports)

(2)  SNMP & Web Interface Management with ACL firewall.

(3) Redundant power supplies with separate power cords. (e.g. UPS "Blue" & UPS "Red")

(4) Dip switch DC polarity selectable per port. (e.g. Trango/Canopy vs. UBNT, etc.)

(5) Dip switch 12VDC, 24VDC, 48VDC passive and standard 802.3af selectable per port.

(6)  1U shallow depth form factor.

(7)  Auto-Ping per port.

(8)  LED Status indicators per port.

(9)  Optional DC power source model for solar sites?

(10)  Optional Trango Apex/Orion GigE model?

What else would be beneficial in the design of this PoE controller?

Best,

Brad

I may be off here from the majority, but I don't want a switch. I want to be able to put these onto router ports as well as switch ports.

I just want a rackmount multiport passive PoE controller, manageable per port with autoping and redundant power supplies. Is that so much to ask for??? ;)

Once they add remote management, redundant power supplies and a "Auto-Ping" feature they'll have a winner.

Just put in a 12 port 24V version of this for a UniFi WLAN. Worked flawlessly.

Powered the UBNT PB5 on one of the ports too.
