Nope, this is not the ghetto "Passive PoE" variety which uses the 4 wires not needed for 100Mbps to carry power. This is an actual 802.3af/at compliant adapter.

I have 2 in my home (not the exact model I listed because I'm on the other side of the Atlantic, bought them off Amazon Germany), hooked to a Netgear GS110TP (8 PoE copper ports, 2 SFP ).

Actually there's so much stuff drawing power (2 Pi, 2 Ubiquity APs) that I'm starting to worry about the load on the switch.
