I was aware of this device (being a big Ubiquiti fan), but have yet to find anyone who has direct experience with using them on a 3524-PWR. Have you actually tried this (on a 3524-PWR, not a 3550 or anything later-but-pre-standard)? The equipment will be quite happy with 16v... -r Philip Dorr <tagno25@gmail.com> writes:
The Ubuquti Instant 802.3af seems to do what you want (as long as the equipment can handle 16v)

Perhaps someone from this august list can offer a clue here.
Have: Â Cisco 3524-PWR Â (paleo-POE, pre-802.3af Cisco standard).
It runs the 7960Gs great.
Have: Â Wireless AP stuff that wants 12v on the unused pairs for passive POE. Â 48v will let the magic smoke out.
Might buy: Â phone that does 802.3af
Want to run these with the 3524-PWR.
I can't imagine that nobody makes a bump-in-the-wire converter for this application, but haven't been able to find anything other than 802.3af to the passive POE use case.
Anyone got a pointer for me?
Thanks,
