Try picking up a 3com 3c17205 (4400 PWR) 24 port switch...it'll cost you a couple of 
bucks more but has POE built in and if you use the NJ200 (there's a guy selling boxes 
of 20 NJ200's on Ebay for $750 but he's got a lot so you can get him down to about 
$575) or NJ220 wall jacks (DONT GET THE NJ95,NJ100 or NJ105) it gives you tremendous 
flexibility, the NJ's are a proper managed 4 port switch in themselves and have built 
in QoS priority and the 4400 forwards POE to them and they forward it to the device).

I managed to pick up some new 3c17205's for about $400 on Ebay (although they're 
scarce at the moment) and just finished wiring up my flat with the whole 
shebang....means I've got phone points and network points everywhere in a single 
device and don't have to worry about power points.

Have fun.
