MXP Ethernet Switch

[Alan Anderson]

Depending on the 2016 power rules, it might be worthwhile to include support for either 802.3af-compliant Power Over Ethernet or the less expensive (and less officially standard) simple voltage POE accepted by the OM5P-AN.

After looking for small/cheap POE powered switches, this is exactly where this project might head.

Edit: or maybe not because I found this http://www.amazon.com/BV-TECH-BV-RP1...powered+switch. The question I guess I have for myself now is would I be able to make something smaller/lighter, and I'd like to see if it would be possible to make sometime like this into a dongle that hangs securely off of the OM5P perhaps.
