The Ubiquiti USW-Flex.  And maybe other devices.  David will know.  I
just noticed it from the recent commit in master.

Looks like a really nice little MT7621 device with 802.3af/at/bt in and
4 x 802.3af out. Obviously without much budget if powered by 802.3af,
but that's still a docuemnted and supported configuration!

Great list!  Can't add anything morte than the USW-Flex here.  I only
have two GS1900-10HP myself
