> An AppleTV, Chromecast, or NVIDIA Shield can easily fit within the envelope of PoE+

I ended up buying a PoE extractor and barrel plug adapter for my Roku, and another extractor for my HDHomeRun.

It annoyed the heck out of me that they had PoE running to them and still had to be plugged into a separate transformer.

I feel your pain. Prior to my network rebuild at home, I had splitters powering the EdgeRouter, Philips Hue Bridge v2, a Raspberry Pi, and was tempted to add more for the various small (<8-port) ethernet switches scattered about. UniFi expanding their switch lineup to include PoE-powered gigabit and 2.5G switches was a godsend, as were PoE HATs for the RPis’. Only the Hue Bridge remains on a splitter, because Signify won’t make one with native PoE.
