Thanks for following up Martin - good point. If you are looking for a bit more sophisticated PoE switch with more power per port - and have a bit more money - you can try Dell: http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pwcnt_3448p?c=us&cs=555&l=en&s=biz
That is what we usually suggest for clients to get if they can finance it :) Good luck! --- Alex Kovalenko toll free 877.585.VOIP [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.VoIPGizmos.ca Canadian VoIP Store "IP Phones, FXS Adaptors, PBXs, Digium cards, and more..."
