Common Concerns Answered
Can this PoE switch be installed anywhere on my boat?
The Iris PoE4v2 features an IP30 rating, which means it is protected against solid objects larger than 2.5mm but has no protection against water ingress. It must be installed in a dry, dust-free environment, necessitating careful placement within your vessel's electrical or navigation compartments, away from areas prone to moisture or high particulate concentration.
What if I have an issue with the switch after purchase?
Please note that this product may not be returned to the original point of purchase for issues. All product concerns and support inquiries must be handled directly with the manufacturer, Iris Innovations, to ensure timely and expert resolution.
Is the power budget sufficient for multiple high-draw cameras?
The Iris PoE4v2 offers a total PoE power budget of 60W and supports up to 30W per port, allowing for configurations such as two devices drawing 30W each or four devices drawing 15W each. This provides ample power for most marine IP cameras and other PoE network devices.
