My thoughts... $450 is kind of steep to do simple POE and cleanliness. But for rebooting as well, that's another story. Then there is the reliability factor - on a brand new product that's going to be hard.
I pay $0 for messy POEs and $100 for an 8 outlet reboot box. Another $350 is kind of rough. I would have no problem paying $200 for it. Doubling that makes me really shy away.
