At the time my great grandfather left, he sailed on small ship out of Waterford harbor--May,1850. So that harbor was also used for sure. I have looked through ISTG info and they do list Australian ports for arrivals so that might be helpful. I haven't paid much attention to the time frame for Australian listings.

He states that during the period 1850-1880 75% of all Irish Emigrants went through Liverpool. The people would find passage across the Irish Sea (sometimes even free is they were taken on as ballasts) to Liverpool. The cost for Liverpool to NY passage was about 3 -4 pounds for steerage and took 4 - 6 weeks in good weather. Happy hunting!
