Ethernet power injector... that's just a regular power cord spliced onto the unused pairs of an Ethernet cable right? ;) On Fri, Apr 27, 2018 at 10:32 PM, Evan Koblentz via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Don't know, but I would certainly trust you more than anyone else to MacGyver it! Our switch does PoE. But I'd like to connect something directly to the second network port on our server, which is not PoE. Rumor has it there may be what we need in Dan J.'s lab. I am looking into it.

This is indeed the case for 10/100 Mbit. The situation for gigabit Ethernet is a bit more complicated. David Sent from my iPhone On Apr 27, 2018, at 23:06, Evan Koblentz via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Is the device gig? I might have an extra injector at work I can grab on the way. On Fri, Apr 27, 2018 at 11:08 PM David Ryskalczyk via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Not sure. It's a Cisco 1260 series. On Fri, Apr 27, 2018, 11:43 PM Jason Perkins via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Uh, please no one run mains power over any pairs of an Ethernet cable, I'm pretty sure Ian was just channeling the BOFH.

Not mains power. Generally 48V DC, but some hardware works as low as 12V. “Passive” PoE injectors can be purchased on Amazon, but the connector quality is not very high. Pinouts can readily be found. David Sent from my iPhone
