Hi Jeff, While nothing in AstLinux precludes POE power, I have never tried it, but something like this:
POE-12s 12VDC 1A Power Over Ethernet (POE) Splitter http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004XU9OJ6/ together with a PC Engines alix2d3 / alix2d13, probably should work. (Note the alix does not directly support 802.3af POE) The approx. 1A (@12V DC) current limit of IEEE 802.3af POE will limit what x86 hardware can be powered. Though, I am a little puzzled why POE is needed for the AstLinux box, mine are usually tucked away in a secure location with a standard 3A - 12VDC power adapter.
