Etherwan Systems Inc EX41941 Hardened 4-port Poe Switch

Product Description

The ETHERWAN SYSTEMS, INC. EX41941 is a hardened, unmanaged 4-port Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch designed for reliable network connectivity in demanding environments. As an unmanaged switch, it requires no configuration, making deployment straightforward for technicians working in industrial, commercial, or infrastructure settings. The hardened construction allows it to withstand temperature extremes, vibration, and electrical noise common in field installations. It delivers both data and power over standard Ethernet cabling, eliminating the need for separate power runs to connected devices.

The EX41941 is suited for applications where a compact, ruggedized PoE switch is needed to power and connect IP cameras, access control readers, wireless access points, or similar low-voltage network devices. It is commonly installed in control panels, utility enclosures, transportation infrastructure, and industrial automation environments where off-the-shelf consumer-grade switches would not meet environmental requirements. Licensed network and low-voltage contractors typically handle installation in commercial and industrial projects.

Key Features

• Hardened design built to withstand harsh environmental conditions including temperature extremes and electrical interference
• Unmanaged operation requires no configuration software or network setup
• 4 PoE-capable ports deliver both data and power over standard Ethernet cabling
• Compact form factor suitable for installation inside control cabinets or enclosures
• Eliminates separate power wiring runs to connected PoE devices

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install hardened unmanaged PoE switch for industrial and commercial network infrastructure applications requiring ruggedized Ethernet switching.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or network technician familiar with PoE infrastructure and applicable electrical codes. Power down or de-energize the host panel or enclosure before mounting and wiring the switch. Ensure the power source supplying the switch meets the input voltage requirements of the unit. Follow NEC guidelines for low-voltage wiring and maintain proper separation from high-voltage conductors within shared enclosures.
