•Q: What network connection may be used?
A:Any normal IP based 10BaseT connection can be used. If you must use an xDSL, cable modem or ISDN connection that requires a dynamic IP address (DHCP), the process of installing and accessing the VersaCam is a bit different than if a fixed IP address is available. For many reasons, a fixed IP address is preferable.
•Q: What is maximum acceptable length of network cable?
A:UTP cable that is used on a LAN can be extended up to 325 feet (100 meters) without bridging.
•Q: Can the ordinary telephone lines (POTS) be used to connect the VersaCam to the network?
A:Telephone lines can be used to connect the VersaCam, but it is necessary to equip your system with a telephone modem router. Pentax will provide information on such devices upon request. However, it is not efficient to use telephone lines to transmit images because the speed is very low. At best, a V.90 connection will supply 33,600bps uplink speed for transmission. Compare this to a 10,000,000bps LAN connection and you can quickly understand the difference.
•Q: Is a special housing needed when a VersaCam is installed outdoors?
A:The VersaCam cameras are not weatherproof. Therefore, it is necessary to install the camera into a weatherproof housing for outdoor installations.
•Q: When the network to which the VersaCam is installed is made up of one public IP address and several private IP addresses (virtual private network), can the VersaCam be connected to the network with a private IP address?
