User’s Manual

UTP Input (for 4ch & 8ch models only)

Short for Unshielded Twisted Pair, which is a popular type of cable. Due to its low cost, UTP cabling here is used for replacing BNC cabling.

There are plenty of UTP connectors positioned on the rear panel of each unit. Next to these connectors places a switch used to enable or disable this function. Each switch (4ch DVR only has one switch and 4ch/ 8ch DVR has two) has four DIP switches on it. These DIP switches are named by numbers; and each number corresponds to a camera. Note that BNC are alternative methods of access for video input cabling, which means if you chose BNC for Camera 1, than you have to disable its UTP function.

NOTE: UTP cable transfers not only Video Signal but also power for cameras.
