When the standard is actually ratified and implemented all 802.3af
equipment _should_ interoperate. The current offerings from Cisco are
not 802.3af, they are Cisco's proprietary implementation since they came
out with it long before .3af was even close to being a reality.
Cisco's future switches will be compatible with 802.3af AND backward
compatible with their existing in-line power devices.

Subject: Cisco's Power over the Ethernet IEEE 802.3af
Does anyone know if Cisco's Power over the Ethernet
IEEE 802.3af agrees with Avaya's IEEE 802.3af standard
? I'm wondering if I can use a Avaya or 3rd party IP
phone with cisco switches.
Any info would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks,
Armand
