I am doing a pre-check on a product with Power Over Ethernet. The PCB doesn't appear to have sufficient spacing (creepage and clearance) between the incoming TX/RX circuitry and the isolated circuitry on the product side of the transformer.
However, it comes with an integral plastic mounting plate and instructions to mount it into an opening in a wall (similar to an electrical outlet box cover). The spacing between the circuitry and the plastic mounting plate (and the thickness of the plastic mounting plate) provide sufficient separation from either side of the Ethernet transformer. There are no user accessible openings. Could this pass approval (for example EN62368 or EN60950) with restrictions that it be properly mounted? The Ethernet is building only. Thanks in advance, this list is a great resource and much appreciated.
