It's a specialized three prong adapter with 2 ethernet jacks on it. You plug the three prong into the wall, and then one jack goes from the adapter to the access point (providing power to the AP), and the other jack goes into your switch/router. If you have two or more of them, the others can uplink to one another wirelessly without the need to plug every one of them into a switch.

Nice.

That sounds like what the OP needs for roaming his devices.

You added this.

So effectively you can daisy-chain one AP to another PoE?
