Powering a D100 Base Station

[underthebus]

All,
Can one power injector be connected on the only one LAN port of IPO? I will not have one intermediate switch available in the location. I'd rather not have to buy a PoE switch. There will be 5 digital 9508s, and 5 wireless Dect handsets registering to the basestation. I dont know if the LAN interface of the switch can accept "host". -Thanks!

If your referring to the D100 LAN Port, yes, you can connect a POE Injector to the LAN that connects to the D100.

See page 39 ~ 42 in the IP Office D100 SIP Wireless Terminal Installation and Administration Guide:

Powering the base station
The base station receives power through the Ethernet cable using Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Ensure that you plug the provided cable into a PoE-enabled switch that connects to the network where IP Office resides. Alternatively, you can use a PoE Power supply with a non-PoE Ethernet interface.
