The new switch is:  TRENDnet® Unmanaged GREENnet PoE+ Ethernet Switch, 8-Ports (TPE-TG80G)

This is what I need to do. I ran one Cat 6 line to an office room. This room needs 5 phone lines. I purchased a PoE switch with 8 connections. There is an existing network. When I cabled the new PoE switch to the network, and plugged in the Cat 6 line to one of the PoE lines the phones did not work. When I place the PoE switch in the office room, and added lines to each phone, and ran a ethernet cable in each PoE jack it worked. What am I doing wrong? How to I get the PoE switch to work in the server room, and not run so much cable?
