Is there a service that if I provided a network map would provide me with suggested switches for a mixed (i.e poe for voip and non voip for computers and smart tvs) home network?
jjesson,
Having an 802.3at switch will still be depending on how your network to be setup and depends on the devices that will be connected to it. Yes, you are correct. Even if the main switch is GS510TP which is a POE+(802.3at), the GS110TP will still remain the same running in POE(802.3af).

So if my main switch is the GS510TP it will power my network without additional power sources. (If swiches down stream were near a power source would you or could you use that power to help with the integrity of the network) I assume that if the main switch is the GS510TP (which is "at" compatible) and I drop down to GS110TP switches which aren't "at" compatible I have already limited all ports below the GS110TP to the "af" standard. Is that correct? The best price I have found on Amazon.ca for the GS510TP is $288.00 Canadian. The best price I have found on Amazon.ca for the GS110TP is $179.00 Canadian. I am trying to determine if the extra $220.00 is worth having the Primary switch and the 2 Secondary switches all GS510TPs.
