I’m planning to install additional cameras, specifically the IPC-B54IR-Z4E-S3 and PTZ4M-25X-PV, at a remote location that requires an LBE-5AC-Gen2 antenna. This time, I aim to keep the setup simple and clean.

The electrical waterproof box will include the following components:

Antenna (LBE-5AC-Gen2) injector
5-Port PoE Switch (mounted inside the new box)
Duplex Outlet

Nice!
Specs say that Ubiquititi LBE-5AC-Gen2 radio operates on 24VDC passive POE, so it's not 802.3af compliant. What are the specs on that "5-Port PoE Switch" you have mounted?

This is why you’re so appreciated on this forum. You’re absolutely right the Ubiquiti LBE-5AC-Gen2 radio operates on 24VDC passive PoE. I’ll use the PoE injector that came with the antenna to power the Ubiquiti LBE-5AC-Gen2, as it provides the required 24V. I'll use a 5 port PoE switch Specs to power the camera. These switches are so affordable that it just makes sense to use them, and it also gives me the flexibility to easily add another PoE camera in the future.
