It let some of the magic smoke out, but not enough to hurt it. I thought it would be smart to run 2 POE wires to my soekris that was going in the air, in case one of them died. Looks like the 2nd port isn't set up for POE, it fried 2 of the pulldown resistors, I would imagine the 2 on the center pair. They aren't necessary, so it didn't hurt anything, but it scared me for a minute, one of them actually caught on fire!
