Hi All Happy new year

would like to install 1xuniview poe switch outside in a waterproof box just so i dont need to have 12 +cables coming inside house as restricted access

are there ways round to stop poe switch not working correctly due to uk weather heat or cold temps,i know box is waterproof

would like any sugestions if anyone has succesfully done this or is it you have to use a proper external poe switch

any info would be appreciative

 

If you have power you could fit a little temp controlled heater. Only ever fitted them inside

I have used different types , London tho , never had an issue except a cheaper version died after 10 years , used different types of IP box 

The storage & operating temperatures of the equipment will be stated on the data sheet.

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
