This adapter kit works just like described, the Wireless-G Access Points I powered with the two kits I purchased have been up and running for about two months. There are only two caveats with this product:
1) This device is NOT fully 802.3af compliant (Power Over Ethernet). It's very, very close, but even Cisco will admit on the phone that it's not 100%. This doesn't have a huge effect, but it's worth noting.
2) These adapters work fantastically, but be sure to call Linksys/Cisco and ensure that what you're trying to power is compatible with this kit. Remember, it's only got so much juice it can fire down a CAT5 or CAT6 cable, so don't think you'll be running the newest Wireless-N router with wired ports and multiple bands, multiple antennas, and all that jazz. Keep the device simple, and don't overtax the available power.
So for me, I'm powering two WAP54G (Wireless-G access points) and it's working beautifully. Keep it around that kind of ballpark, and you're good.Get more detail about Cisco-Linksys WAPPOE12 12 Volt Power Over Ethernet Adapter Kit.
