This will be my first major asterisk experiment and I'm trying to
choose a PoE switch for 15-24 phones. I was going to spend $400 on
this:

http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16833124053

but then I see this on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/WS-C3524-PWR-XL-EN-Cisco-3524-24-FE-Switch-W-PoE-VoIP_W0QQitemZ370043264927QQihZ024QQcategoryZ51268QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

and I'm thinking, hey, thats a lot cheaper and it is PoE. Will the
Cisco IP phone's proprietary wizardry be a problem for my flock on
Linksys IP phones? Because as long as it can do vlan qos and poe I
think I can scrape by for half the price, right?

Thanks for reading!

I am probably not too qualified to answer this question but I would go with the linksys.

Woah,

How weird. I JUST bought this off of ebay 2 minutes ago. The exact one.

This will be my first time playing with PoE. I have all cisco phones
here but I'll let you know how it goes.

We've been very happy with the SRW224Ps we've deployed.

(noisy as hell... good for either the datacentre / computer room or
for installation in a noise-cancelling cabinet... but then again, are
there any PoE switches that aren't ?)

We've been using D-Link DES-3028P and DES-3052P switches. They can supply full power to EACH port unlike the Linksys switches we've tried. They're also rock solid from our experience.

I'm using Dell 3548P switches currently which I have powering 25 phone (mostly Aastra 9133i's, a couple 480i's a 57i + 560M)

So... basically I have a phone on about half my ports... my power utilization on the switch is:

console# show power inline

Unit Power Nominal Power Consumed Power Usage Threshold Traps
---- ------- ------------- ------------------ --------------- ---------
1 On 370 Watts 78 Watts (21%) 95 Disable
The unit will supply up to 370W of power, or 470W if you buy the additional power supply for it.
