Sorry, my requirement is for miniaturization. I want something the size of
a pinky finger I can just plug into a firewall. My application requires
something very small, not a separate box.

I guess one of the problems to overcome here is how does the device get
power? I assume that a normal 10/100 ethernet does not supply power to the
device that is connected by ethernet? What is this "power over ethernet"
standard I hear about, and is that standard intended to only deliver power,
or can it deliver both network signal and power together?
