Have you guys thought about having the Pine64 boards be able to interface with a PoE 802.3af/at daughter card?
My hope would be that if the cost of the board can stay roughly the same, but be able to interface with a PoE 802.3af/at daughter card for those interested, this would greatly increase the board's versatility.
I for one would absolutely love this.
The best way still factor in the PoE power circuit and redesign the Pine A64 board.
At current stage, you no need to design a daughter card, just use a PoE splitter.
Note: I have no affiliation with TP-LINK, but have used these devices in the past and they worked well.
