POWER BUDGET
CAMSWITCH Mobile can deliver up to 80 watts of total camera
power at its rated ambient temperature of 50°C.
To calculate the power budget required, add up the power draw
in watts of all POE devices, as given in their datasheets. (Power
classes are not used, and cable losses are already accounted for.)
Note that the enclosure may become hot in operation. Restricted access
to the product is recommended.
The graph opposite shows the approximate temperature rise
with moderate ventilation. Note that restricted ventilation and space
can lead to signifi cantly increased ambient temperature.
If the input voltage drops below 12V (for example during engine
cranking) the power budget should be reduced as shown on the
graph, down to 50 watts at the minimum 8.5V DC input

POWER CONNECTIONS
CAMSWITCH Mobile can operate from an 8.5V to 40V DC
supply, and steps this up to a steady POE voltage internally.
(For AC applications, contact Veracity.)
The power supply or battery and wiring must be appropriately
rated and fused for the current required. Recommended fuse
ratings (slow blow type) are:
131
102
122
110
5
8
25
Note that the POE voltage is not isolated from the DC supply. CAMSWITCH
Mobile is intended for use with IEEE-compliant (individually isolated) POE
and Ethernet devices within a closed system.
