Outdoor Ethernet Switch

[Donald]

Looking for recommendations/experience with outdoor network switches that are waterproof.

Must handle POE++ so 90W, have 4 output POE ports. Or different models with 2 or 3 or 4 ports.

I would like them to be Unifi managed switches and I have a few Unifi Flex switches but they just don't handle the power.

Waterproof outdoor enclosures are the only thing I would trust,

There are some waterproof enclosures and others that are waterproof and you carefully put each cable through a waterproof connector screwed into the switch.

I was thinking of something like this!

You can try the ubiquiti flex as a layer 2, but you will need to purchase the power brick separately for poe++.

Mikrotik has a few outdoor poe+ switches but I do not believe they provide poe++ if all the ports are taken. They come installed with their SwitchOS which is layer 2.5 and the more expensive products can do layer 3 and routing efficiently when you switch to their RouterOS.

can we get more details. POE++ out? ,In , both? poe++ can be 60 or 90 watts.
60 ?90w total? per port ?!

powered by poe?

and in general more details = better responses..
so maybe a few sentences of background?
