I haven't checked pinouts yet for the new devices but pin 4 is also a -V. It
is used as a reset on the current devices but will comply with 802.3af on
the new devices which are 802.3af compliant.

Hi,

I'm a little puzzled about the way sB assigns voltage polarity to pins 
of RJ-45 conncetor. The 802.3af assigns pins 4,5 for RTN, and 7,8 -V on 
the RJ-45 connector whereas sB assigns pins 5 for -V and 7,8 for +V. 
The sB pin assignment causes compatibility problem for us when we 
install sB PoE product on the customer sites that already have PoE 
Power Source Device (PSD) that truely complies with 802.3af. I'm not 
sure whether sB PoE device is truely 802.3 compliant and would there be 
any effort to be done to improve this situation. Your advice is 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Minh
