[Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7905G Power over Ethernet - does it work?

[rulle mus]

Hello Tomasz,

I got the 7905 working with an Dell POE switch without any
modifications of cables, the 7960 also works on the Dell switch but
you have to modify the cable.

I also tried the Netgear FS108p and it does not work with the 7905,
7912 and 7960 as I have tested. Even with modified cables no go on the
Netgear. I believe the Cisco uses the CDP protocol to get juice from
the switch, and the Netgear doesn't understand that.

Regards,

Mus
