I'm guessing they didn't design it the way you would... just using cheap PoE magnetics would make a pretty huge difference in price, wouldn't it?

It has to have two POE sets of magnetics, a buck converter plus PCB, case, connectors etc. Lots of expensive parts. I guess if they are making 10,000 pcs at a time the costs come down some, but that price they are quoting doesn’t do much more than cover the cost of the parts the way I would design it.
