Tech says it should work just like the IP300, as long as the switch is
802.3AF a regular cables should allow for PoE

I think the best way to do this would probably be to get a T1 or E1 
capable card like the TE410P or T100P and then get a channel bank.  It 
is an external box that converts T1/E1 signalling to standard analog 
lines.  It can give you all of the 24 lines available on a T1 as FXS 
ports.  There's popular model that a lot of people are using, the 
Rhino:

I don't use this kind of a setup, so I can't vouch for it.  Anybody 
else?  Is this a good unit?
