Altronix Corp NETWAYSP4WP 4-port Poe Switch Nema 4

Product Description

The ALTRONIX CORP NETWAYSP4WP is a managed 4-port Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch with two SFP uplink slots, an integrated power supply, and a NEMA 4-rated enclosure. It is designed for enterprise and commercial security installations where network-powered devices such as IP cameras, access control readers, and VoIP endpoints must be deployed in locations exposed to dust, moisture, or harsh environmental conditions. The NEMA 4 housing provides protection against windblown dust and rain, making it suitable for outdoor or semi-outdoor mounting. Licensed network or security integrators are the primary installers for this class of equipment.

This switch is intended for commercial and enterprise environments requiring edge PoE distribution in a hardened, weatherproof package. Typical applications include outdoor surveillance systems, perimeter access control, and industrial networking runs where standard rack-mount equipment is not appropriate. The two SFP slots allow fiber or long-distance copper uplink connections, extending the usable network distance beyond standard copper Ethernet limits. The integrated power supply eliminates the need for a separate external injector or midspan, simplifying the installation footprint in cabinet or wall-mount scenarios.

Key Features

• 4 PoE-capable ports for powering IP cameras, access readers, or other IEEE 802.3af/at compatible devices
• 2 SFP uplink slots supporting fiber or extended-distance copper modules
• Integrated power supply — no external injector or midspan required
• NEMA 4-rated enclosure provides protection against dust, rain, and splashing water
• Enterprise PoE device class — suited for commercial security and network infrastructure deployments

Compatibility

Designed for use in enterprise PoE network infrastructure deployments. Compatible with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE-powered devices. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data; consult the ALTRONIX CORP datasheet for verified endpoint and module compatibility.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or network integrator familiar with NEC requirements for low-voltage wiring and PoE power budgeting. Power down the circuit before making any wiring connections inside the enclosure. Verify the total PoE load across all active ports does not exceed the switch power budget before commissioning. The NEMA 4 enclosure must be mounted and sealed according to the manufacturer instructions to maintain its environmental rating.
