    Hello,

    Does anybody have any good technical information on how interoperable VOIP phones really are with switches with PoE? That is do voip phones reliably follow the 802.3af standard? Would a voip phone work over the same distance of cable as an AP or are there surprises? So far, I have only found some "white papers" that appear to have been written by salesmen. If I had some hardware a test setup and a voltmeter it would be possible to do some checks but is better to find these things out before you get the hardware.

    Regards,
    David
