This would be cool.... however, I'm sure price is the factor. How much would you be willing to pay for the 12 port version? My guess is something like this would be $600-$800. :(

And here I am thinking all this time that I was the only one who would appreciate a device like this! I spoke with someone at Streakwave a few months ago about this and basically got a blank stare response. He had no idea why I would want such a thing....<sigh>

So, to any manufacturers up to the task, here is (IMO) a starting point of a bullet point list for the PoE device I'm envisioning:

(1)  Multi-port models.  (e.g. 6, 12 & 24 ports)

(2)  SNMP & Web Interface Management with ACL firewall.

(3) Redundant power supplies with separate power cords. (e.g. UPS "Blue" & UPS "Red")

(4) Dip switch DC polarity selectable per port. (e.g. Trango/Canopy vs. UBNT, etc.)

(5) Dip switch 12VDC, 24VDC, 48VDC passive and standard 802.3af selectable per port.

(6)  1U shallow depth form factor.

(7)  Auto-Ping per port.

(8)  LED Status indicators per port.

(9)  Optional DC power source model for solar sites?

(10)  Optional Trango Apex/Orion GigE model?

What else would be beneficial in the design of this PoE controller?

Best,

Brad

I may be off here from the majority, but I don't want a switch. I want to be able to put these onto router ports as well as switch ports.

I just want a rackmount multiport passive PoE controller, manageable per port with autoping and redundant power supplies. Is that so much to ask for??? ;)

Once they add remote management, redundant power supplies and a "Auto-Ping" feature they'll have a winner.

Just put in a 12 port 24V version of this for a UniFi WLAN. Worked flawlessly.

Powered the UBNT PB5 on one of the ports too.
