Really good solution for PoE on Lightning devices

My company uses iPhones and iPads commercially and we needed a PoE solution. We ended up testing both PoE Texas devices and the Belkin solution. These PoE Texas devices worked great. Plug and play right out of the box, even with older devices like iPhone 6s phones. They are compact and support GigE. Belkin's adapters allow you to use a Lightning-based power supply (making it both a regular Ethernet adapter + power port and PoE), but otherwise it's at least twice the size of these adapters and half the speed (about 300-300Mbps). /With). 400 Mbit/s). I've used over 20 of these adapters and they really saved us. My only complaint is the rather large 90-degree lightning port, which affects some of the cases we've used.
