[asterisk-users] Cisco 7940G licensing with asterisk

[Peder @ NetworkOblivion]

I'm pretty sure that any Cisco switch that has PoE supports pre-standard 
PoE.  However there are only certain ones that do support the standard. 
  If you are looking for the cheapest used ones, then a 3524-PWR will 
work.  If you want new, then a 3560 "ps" version will work.
