I recently decided to make a POE patch panel for my RB's to tidy up my rack.
This was basically the result. I used a standard 16 port patch panel. The left 8 RJ45 jacks will powered jacks and the right 8 will be linked to the switch.
The wiring for the POE pair is as above. Port1 and Port9 is linked, Port2 and Port10 is linked etc.
This is the rear view of the patch panel. As you can see, Pins 1,2,3 and 6 of Port1 and Port 9 is linked. Then the power is connected to Pins 4,5,7 and 8.
In My application, I need different POE power for different RB's. I have linked the power of Port1 and 2 for 48V. Port3 and Port4 is linked for a 24V supply. Port 5-8 is then linked to it's own Power Supply.
