Having the ability to connected a cDAQ chassis to a PoE or PoE+ switch.
Then the cDAQ does not have to be powered locally.
Ethernet is throughout our facility the ability to drop a cDAQ chassis with sensors and not worrying about power would be helpful.
Currently I am using external hardware to power cDAQ chassis off of PoE+ switch, it would be nice if it was integrated.
One of my nodes includes 4-slot chassis with two CAN cards, a temperature card and an accelerator card.
