You want me to do your shopping list?
You made the post without bringing receipts.
It’s like asking “how do I bake a chocolate cake” and you said “go get ingredients from the store”. Not helpful.
The question was "Can I run a mini-PC via PoE?". The answer was Yes.
I naively assumed you knew how things worked and were unsure about the power capacity. If you wanted a detailed walkthrough on how to plug things together, you should've asked. And I would not have bothered.
You said "can I" not "how do I" and the answer was "probably yes" instead of "here's how" so if you wanted instructions you should have framed your question as such
