sixwheeledbeast Posted Monday at 19:07 Share Posted Monday at 19:07 Outdoor ones are at least triple the cost? I have put internal equipment (AP) outside in an IP box at customers request, it lasted couple of years before it lost it's marbles. I'd suggest that's a lot of equipment to go down if you have a failure and consider a redesign or using the proper stuff.

QFA id go for a camera heater in the WP Box just make sure its mounted properly not just sitting in the bottom of the box where it will melt through Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/47427-exterior-poe-switches/#findComment-531498 Share on other sites More sharing options...
