PoE injector

[mm69mm]

Hello everyone,

in some racks, we power network devices such as switches, routers, or cameras using PoE injectors, at least in situations where a device not only has a DC input but also a PoE port.
The problem I encountered when inserting this device into the Netbox is that it has an Ethernet port on one side and an RJ45 plug on the other, in addition to the DC power input.
A possible device configuration I created, which seems acceptable to me, is the following:

Has anyone used a different solution?

I attach an image of the PoE device we use.

Front and rearports makes sense. That way the device will show up correctly in cable traces.
