VERACITY VHW-HWPS-C Powerstar Ethernet PoE Camera Unit

SKU CH-3XMJ-Z0M9M

Wall-mountable PoE unit powers IP cameras, measuring .9 by 2.1 inches and weighing 3.53 oz

  • Wall-mountable design simplifies installation
  • Rail-mountable option fits standard enclosures
  • Rack-mountable form suits server cabinets
  • Ultra-compact at 0.9" high and 2.1" wide
  • Lightweight 3.53 oz unit reduces mounting strain

Compact PoE Camera Unit

The Veracity VHW-HWPS-C Powerstar is a wall-mountable, rail-mountable and rack-mountable accessory for IP camera installations. It works with the Veracity HIGHWIRE Powerstar base side to extend network and power delivery. The unit weighs approximately 3.53 oz and meets RoHS environmental standards. Its small footprint suits tight enclosures.

Sustained Operation in Fixed Installations

Designed for permanent mounting, the unit maintains consistent PoE delivery to connected cameras over long cable runs. The .9 inch height and 2.1 inch width allow dense packing in racks or on walls without airflow concerns. Passive operation means no moving parts to wear out under continuous load. RoHS compliance confirms restricted hazardous substances.

Upgrade Path for Existing HIGHWIRE Systems

This unit replaces ad-hoc PoE injectors or midspans when expanding a Veracity HIGHWIRE Powerstar deployment. It is not suited for non-Veracity PoE standards or installations needing outdoor-rated housings. Buyers adding cameras to an existing HIGHWIRE backbone will find the integration straightforward. Those starting a new system without HIGHWIRE base hardware should verify compatibility first.
