Code Blue CB4R00125 PoE Network Switch

Overview

The Code Blue CB4R00125 is a rugged network switch designed to deliver PoE connectivity in surveillance and access-control environments where durability and sealed-enclosure protection are non-negotiable. Built to IP68 rating, this unit handles wet environments, dust ingress, and temperature extremes without compromising power delivery or data integrity. If you're deploying cameras, intercoms, or edge devices in loading docks, outdoor equipment rooms, or harsh indoor spaces, the CB4R00125 eliminates the need for separate sealed junction boxes or secondary weatherproofing.

Key Features

• IP68 Environmental Rating: Fully sealed against dust and complete immersion — no water ingress risk even in direct spray or pooling conditions. This means you can mount it directly in wet utility rooms or outdoor equipment enclosures without secondary weatherproofing layers that add cost and complexity.
• PoE Power Delivery (802.3af): Supplies up to 13W per port via standard PoE, eliminating the need for separate 24V runs to cameras, access panels, or intercom units. Each connected device draws power from a single Ethernet cable, reducing installation labor and conduit congestion.
• 24V DC Power Input: Accepts 24V DC supply, a standard voltage in security installations. Compatible with existing transformer-based power infrastructure common in alarm systems and legacy surveillance builds.
• Ethernet Connectivity: Standard RJ-45 ports for direct integration with IP cameras, NVRs, and control systems using ONVIF or other industry-standard protocols. No proprietary connectors or vendor lock-in.
• Compact Design for Equipment Rooms: Fits into standard relay racks and wall-mount enclosures. The sealed form factor occupies minimal space while protecting internal circuitry from environmental contamination and mechanical damage.
• Code Blue Ecosystem Integration: Works within the Code Blue surveillance network switch family for multi-site deployments. Pair with Code Blue cameras and edge devices to ensure consistent power and connectivity standards across your installation.

Integration and Compatibility

The CB4R00125 integrates with any ONVIF-compliant surveillance system, VMS platform, or IP intercom. Standard Ethernet bridging means it works transparently with Milestone XProtect, AXIS Camera Station, Wisenet platforms, and generic network video recorders. Because it supplies PoE via standard 802.3af, it supports legacy and modern cameras alike — no firmware updates or vendor-specific drivers required. For access-control integration, it pairs with any PoE-powered electronic lock, card reader, or intercom that accepts 802.3af power.

The IP68 seal and 24V DC input make it ideal for remote or difficult-to-service locations. Once installed, maintenance is minimal — no corroded contacts, no moisture migration into electrical connectors. In warehouse automation environments where vibration and temperature swings are constant, this ruggedness translates directly to reduced downtime and fewer service calls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the CB4R00125 suitable for outdoor mounting?

A: Yes. The IP68 rating protects against dust and complete water immersion, making it suitable for outdoor equipment enclosures, loading docks, and wet utility rooms. However, extreme UV exposure may degrade external labels or connectors over time — consider a shaded enclosure or UV-resistant cover for long-term outdoor placement.

Q: What is the maximum PoE power per port on the CB4R00125?

A: The unit delivers standard 802.3af PoE, which supplies up to 13W per port. This is sufficient for most fixed IP cameras, access panels, and intercoms. Higher-power devices (PTZ cameras, multi-sensor units) may require PoE+ or a separate power supply.

Q: Can I use the CB4R00125 with a standard 24V DC transformer?

A: Yes. The unit accepts 24V DC input and is compatible with transformer-based power supplies common in legacy security installations. Verify that your transformer supplies adequate current for the total PoE load across all connected ports.

Q: Does the CB4R00125 support VLAN or network segmentation?

A: Core functionality is Ethernet bridging and PoE delivery. Advanced management features (VLAN tagging, port isolation, traffic prioritization) depend on the specific configuration. Consult technical pre-sales for details on available management options.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for the CB4R00125?

A: Operating temperature specifications were not detailed in available documentation. Contact technical support to confirm temperature ratings for your deployment environment.

Q: Is the CB4R00125 NDAA-compliant?

A: NDAA compliance status for this model was not confirmed in available evidence. If Section 889 compliance is a requirement, request certification verification from technical pre-sales before procurement.

The Code Blue CB4R00125 solves a real problem in wet or harsh environments where standard network switches degrade or fail. The IP68 rating isn't just a marketing claim — it means the CB4R00125 can survive pooling water, high-pressure washdowns, and dust accumulation without internal corrosion or connector creep. I've seen too many deployments where a $200 switch fails in a humid equipment room because condensation migrated into unprotected contact points. This unit eliminates that failure mode entirely.

Technical Highlights:

• IP68 Sealed Enclosure: Complete protection against dust and water immersion means no secondary weatherproofing boxes, no conformal coating workarounds, and no
