Hm.. how about this setup:

PSE          |-load      splitter
------>>-----x--------->>----

Attach the load directly to the ethernet line after PSE did
classification with splitter. Then remove splitter. As long as load is
high enough, PSE will not turn the port off. Then reduce load until it drops
below the threshold.

Oleksij
