Poe Backup

Looking for a solution for battery backup for a POE device in case of power failure to the POE switch. Anyone have any ideas? Thought about a standard UPS but that way overkill for my needs.

Have you considered disabling PoE on that port and use a PoE injector, connect only the injector into a small UPS. That way you won’t have to power everything on the switch with the UPS.
