Panasonic WV-NP304 manual When using PoE Power over Ethernet IEEE802.3af compliant

Page 25

• When using PoE (Power over Ethernet: IEEE802.3af compliant)

Connect a LAN cable (category 5 or better) between a PoE device (such as a PoE hub) and the network connector of the camera.

Important:

Use all of 4 pairs (8 pins) of the LAN cable.

Maximum length of an Ethernet cable that can be connected is 100 m.

Make sure that the PoE device in use is compliant with IEEE802.3af standard.

When connecting both the 12 V DC power supply and the PoE device for power supply, PoE will be used for power supply.

When disconnecting the LAN cable once, connect the cable again after 2 seconds or more from the disconnection. When the cable is connected before 2 seconds passed, the power may not be supplied from the PoE device.

Refer to the provided slip (Recommended network devices for PoE (IEEE802.3af compli- ant) connection with the WV-NP304) for applicable PoE devices.

v Connect a LAN cable (category 5 or better) to the network connector on the rear.
