Oooh. Cool.

By "power" do you mean 120/240VAC, or do you mean much lower voltage DC? I've found some Belden cabling that I think provides mains power and Ethernet, and I've found fiber cabling that I guess carries lower voltage DC, but am having a tough time finding a cable that combines fiber and copper data with mains power. Do you have an example of such a cable handy?

(Full disclosure: I'm refusing to spend more than like five minutes on the search... so I might have been able to dig up examples of such a cable.)
