Never the less, this switch is good and definitely has it's use cases.

Idk lets say you have 8 cameras, you'd really rather have a cheap switch + 8 adapters?
But to buy this switch to power a few Raspberry Pi's or some other SBCs, which don't run critical tasks - this is something I will not do, unless I already have a PoE switch with available ports.
That's why I said it "definitely has it's use cases"

There's absolutely value in minimizing the wire rats nest.
One thing about PoE is that once you get onboard, it's difficult to keep up, as there will always be more devices or things you find to add on the network. I started with couple cameras on a 5 port switch, now have a couple 48 port managed switches and looking into the 2.5g with new accesspoints, but it's still a pricy move. With PoE one can add wall tablets, usb charging & network, lighting, eliminating power adapters and a host of different other things easily without dealing with the legalities of running new 120v outles in unusual places
