[Soekris] 4826 and Power over Ethernet

[Konstantin KABASSANOV]

Be really careful, because Cisco uses inverted +/- polarity in with their
POEs. I have a several number of Soekris 4521 boxes working fine with
standard POE injectors. With these injectors, I had to buy special rj45
cables in order to make work cisco APs.
