I actually used 24VAC not DC > in my house. yep, you're right, this is one of the points I considered. But I don't expect voltage to lower more then 2-4 volts over my wiring so... 12V might be ok for the modules... (not for loads indeed). As for "true" PoE, I'm not using it as is: I have Ethernet on other cables. This is just for my modules. -- Ciao, Dario -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
