aye, it's easy to spec a PoE 100mb switch there but generally speaking you wouldn't need gigabit to most PoE devices. That's changing though already. If you do want gigabit and PoE I really, really would suggest something of much better reputation than netgear, but that's mostly because I still don't trust (or understand enough, perhaps!) how that works. Plump for HP or Cisco if you need it.

You need every port GB, or else how can you throw a 450mb/600mb access point at full pelt down your network. You will notice major speed issues when connected to 100MB switch port.
