Identification

Product description and type designation

The PUNTO Hi-PoE housing exploits the PoE and Hi-PoE technology in an optimal way, using the power provided by the Ethernet cable as the sole source of electricity to power the network camera along with heating/demisting.
PUNTO Hi-PoE provides high reliability and flexibility of the network installation and simplifies installation operations with important cost reduction.
PUNTO Hi-PoE can be configured via a dip switch according to the PoE or Hi-PoE standards depending to the system requirements.
Very easy to install thanks to the side opening system that allows the full access to the camera, lenses and all internal connections.
The front is designed to offer protection from UV rays and atmospheric agents.

Preparatory work before installation

Attaching the bracket
The product must be fastened with suitable equipment. The fastening means must guarantee the mechanical seal when a force equal to at least 4 times the weight of the device is applied.

Assembly

How to open the housing
Loosen the 2 screws on the side, turn the cover and the upper half of the body about the opening hinge axis.

Cable glands assembly

The cable glands are suitable for cables with a diameter between 5mm and 10 mm.
Fix the cable glands as shown in the figure.

Fixing the sun shield
It’s possible to fix the sun shield to the housing using screws, washers and spacers provided.

Installation

Fixing of housing to support

Apply a thread-locker on the holes of the screws (Loctite 243®).
Fix the housing to the support using the supplied screws.

How to install the camera

Fasten the camera with the 1/4″ screw (03). To position the camera and lens correctly, if necessary, use the supplied spacers. (04).
Fasten down the adjustable slide in the correct position using the appropriate screws.

Ethernet cable installation

Insert the Ethernet cable in the gasket and block it as shown in figure.
Pay attention to the fixing. Tightening torque: 7Nm.
Pass the cable with connector RJ45 (05) through the M20 cable gland (02). Tighten the cable gland plug (06).

Connection of the PoE power supply board

Connect the PoE cable from the Power Injector to the J1 connector.
