Code Blue 40048 NEMA 4X Enclosure Assembly
Overview
The Code Blue 40048 is a NEMA 4X-rated weatherproof enclosure assembly designed to protect network cameras and outdoor surveillance equipment in harsh environments. Built with corrosion-resistant materials, the 40048 maintains an IP68 rating — meaning full protection against dust ingress and temporary water immersion — without compromising optical or cable routing access. This is the right choice when deploying cameras in coastal salt-spray zones, industrial facilities with steam or chemical exposure, or high-humidity outdoor installations where standard plastic housings will corrode or fog within months.
Compatibility
The 40048 assembly supports PoE (802.3af) power delivery and accommodates integrated or external camera systems with standard lens and cable configurations. Compatible with network cameras up to 20MP resolution. The sealed design maintains environmental ratings while allowing standard RJ-45 terminations and camera mounting typical of enterprise surveillance deployments. Verify your specific camera model's lens diameter and cable routing requirements before ordering — the enclosure's internal dimensions (4.1" W × 1.2" D) constrain lens size and connector orientation.
Installation Notes
The NEMA 4X stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in salt-air and chemical environments, but installation surface preparation matters — ensure mounting surface is clean and dry to prevent galvanic corrosion at fastener contact points. Operating temperature range is -40°F to 149°F (-40°C to 65°C), suitable for most outdoor climates but not Arctic or sustained above-140°F environments. Cable entries require weatherproof connectors (not included) to maintain the IP68 seal — standard RJ-45 connectors alone will degrade the rating. Confirm cable routing and connector type compatibility with your camera and PoE injector before finalizing the assembly.
