Power Over Ethernet
This page documented the use of POE kit at 447 Hackney Road. We have deployed considerably more POE equipment into Ujima House (our 2018 Wembley location) and updated another wiki page accordingly. At 447, we had a creative balance of POE switching and midspans. (Wembley is mostly POE-enabled network switches)

Phi Hong (Quietroom midspan) ports
For the inputs: a plain number is Equipment/Cisco2, and 3com is the Equipment/3com1. For the outputs a plain number is on the top 2 patch panels (which are numberd 1 to 48), and 3-something is on the bottom patch panel, otherwise it's directly connected without going through a patch panel.
x = not used.
