What Is the Outdoor 12V Power Supply (IP67, 18W)?
The Outdoor 12V Power Supply is a waterproof IP67-rated power supply designed for outdoor gateways, industrial equipment, and remote IoT installations where standard indoor adapters are unsuitable. It delivers a stable 12V DC output at up to 1.5A (18W) through a 5-meter output cable, allowing equipment to be mounted in the optimal location while maintaining reliable power delivery.
Many outdoor devices are supplied with power adapters intended only for indoor use. While the gateway, sensor, or controller itself may be weatherproof, the power adapter often becomes the weakest point of the installation.
The Outdoor 12V Power Supply eliminates this problem by providing a fully outdoor-rated power solution designed for permanent deployment in environments exposed to rain, dust, humidity, and temperature extremes.
It serves as a reliable power supply for LoRaWAN® gateway while also supporting a wide range of third-party 12V equipment within its rated output capacity, including:
However, the current model connector is not suitable to be used with:
Note: For deployment-specific requirements, AC Cable(input cable) length, DC Cable(output cable) length, and connector type can be customized on request.
Who Is This Outdoor Power Supply For?
The Outdoor 12V Power Supply is designed for deployments where the power source may be exposed to weather, dust, temperature changes, or limited maintenance access. It is commonly used alongside gateways, monitoring systems, communications equipment, and outdoor control systems.

Why You Need Outdoor 12V Power Supply (IP67, 18W)
The Outdoor 12V Power Supply provides a fully sealed outdoor power solution that helps eliminate one of the most common causes of field maintenance: power-related failures.
Many outdoor devices are designed to withstand harsh conditions, but the included power adapter often is not. Rain, humidity, dust, UV exposure, and temperature cycling can significantly shorten the life of indoor adapters when deployed outdoors.
Why it’s useful:
- Designed for permanent outdoor installation
- More flexible mounting options
- Reliable year-round operation
- Reduced maintenance requirements compared to indoor adapters used outdoors
- Built-in protection circuits help safeguard connected equipment

- IP67 Waterproof Enclosure: Fully sealed for outdoor use in rain, dust, humidity, and exposed environments
- Stable 12V DC Output: Provides regulated 12V DC power for compatible outdoor gateways and communications equipment
- Long-Distance Installation: Allows more flexible equipment placement and installation planning
- Wide Operating Temperature: Designed for reliable operation from −40°C to +85°C
- High Efficiency Design: Up to 86.2% efficiency with less than 0.1W no-load consumption
- Integrated Protection Circuits: Protects connected equipment from short circuits, overloads, and overvoltage events
- Built for Long-Term Deployments: Class II construction, 3-year warranty, and 489,600-hour MTBF
- Custom Cable Options: Input/output cable lengths and connector options available on request
Compatible Gateways
The Outdoor 12V Power Supply is currently designed for use with the following RAK gateways that use the supplied connector configuration and operate within its power specifications:
|
Gateways |
Typical Application |
|
WisGate Edge Prime RAK7240V2/CV2 |
Outdoor gateway infrastructure for LoRaWAN |
|
WisGate Soho Pro RAK7267 |
Smart city, industrial, and remote monitoring deployments |
The LP-16-C04PE-02-001 Circular 4-Pin Connector is used to provide a secure power connection between the Outdoor 12V Power Supply and these compatible gateways.
The threaded coupling design helps maintain a reliable connection in outdoor environments and supports installations exposed to vibration, dust, moisture, and changing weather conditions.
Why Not Use an Indoor Adapter Outdoors?
Many outdoor devices are installed using power adapters intended for indoor environments. While the device itself may be weather-resistant, the power supply often becomes the weakest component of the installation.
Moisture, dust, humidity, UV exposure, and temperature cycling can reduce the lifespan of indoor adapters when used outdoors. For unattended outdoor deployments, selecting a sealed outdoor power supply with an IP67 12V power adapter helps reduce one of the most common causes of field maintenance: power-related failures.

Use Case Examples for Outdoor 12V Power Supply (IP67, 18W)
Reliable outdoor power helps teams maintain device uptime while simplifying deployment across distributed infrastructure and remote installations.
Use Case #1: Gateway Pole Installation for LoRaWAN
During an industrial field installation, an installer experienced frequent outages from an indoor adaptor exposed inside a utility enclosure supporting gateway deployment hardware. After switching to the IP67-rated power supply, a 30-day uptime test improved from 92% to 99.8%. Validation used gateway monitoring logs. Production deployment across 40 sites achieved consistent installation results, and the customer reported that power-related issues were no longer recurring.
Use Case #2: Remote Monitoring Cabinet Upgrade
A utility operator found moisture-related failures affecting remote monitoring infrastructure powered by standard adapters. Using the sealed, waterproof power supply reduced service incidents from five per quarter to one over a six-month period. Results were verified through maintenance records. Deployment across 25 cabinets showed repeatable performance, and the customer stated that the upgrade simplified long-term maintenance planning.
