If it ain't broke, I'll fix it!

So now we have *software* detecting *analog* stuff like the "power consumption" of a *network*. None of those words go together. At all.pic.twitter.com/h0W0R8cI7L
Basically every Ethernet jack I've seen in anything but cheapo consumer routers/switches has been metal. How the hell is this an IOC?pic.twitter.com/1LG7tBe9MW
Nevermind that... Ethernet jacks don't have power pins. Where is this module (that uses so much power that it gets hot) magically powering itself from? Nobody runs PoE out to servers. Did they modify the board design to add power pins too?
Minor nit: power is available for the jack itself since it typically has two LEDs. So if you modified a jack previous to board mounting, you have power. Not enough to need heat dissipation, but enough to run a small chip.
Not a small chip able to MITM 1000BASE-T. You aren't going to get more than 60mW from an LED.
You don't get the power from the led, you draw power from its supply. It only needs to run the logic. You would get further intermitent power from the jack pins. Not backing the Bloomberg piece, just saying it's possible.
I'm talking about the LED supply. 20mA at 3V is the max any indicator LED will be powered at (a lot less these days). LEDs are current limited, so you don't get to draw more. That's 60mW. So no, not possible. Not going to draw any significant power off of the Ethernet pins either
*Maybe* if the LEDs are low side switched *and* the current limiting resistor is on the low side and you wire up yourself between anode and the connector shield you could steal more power, but that's a lot of maybes and assumptions about the board design.
Fine. I am not claiming it was done. I am saying there is a possible approach and that you forgot that the part pinout is not the same as the jack pinout.
Ethernet jacks still don't have power pins. LEDs pins are not power pins. You're not the first to bring up this idea of powering an implant off of the LED supply. It's not practical, I already considered it before your tweet.
Hmm... OK, I don't understand why though. If you have an eight port part, you have using your figure 60 x 8 mW, so 480 mW. 16 ports, 960 mW. You have plenty of room as well. So where is the blocker?
