[Asterisk-Users] Polycom IP 300 PoE?

[Kevin Blackham]

List,

How about circumventing this dongle?  Switches or PoE midspan units
that support forcing power on 4-5, 7-8 without detection?  Found any
3rd party contraptions, like PoE splitters that tell the injector it's
ok, which can simply have an end crimped on in the right way to hit
the polycom or other legacy (no detection) type stuff?
