You mean like the WS-8-150?

Well you can not power a WS-8-150-DC via POE in and you can not push 48V 150W+ across an ethernet cable

Our DC switches bond DC negative input to POE negative output unless you use the WS-26-400-IDC but we are going WAY OVERBOARD HERE

The WS-8-150-DC could be powered by a long heavy gauge copper cable.

The WS2-4-50-DC is real close... if only you could power it like a WS-6 and say with 4 x 1Gb ports and 2 x SFP
Not sure if demand would merit the cost of a new model though.
