Chapter 2 Getting Started

Installing the Cisco Video Surveillance 2621 IP Dome

Mounting to a Ceiling Tile

You can mount the IP dome in a ceiling tile. The ceiling tile must be able to support at least three times the weight of the IP dome. An optional ceiling tile mounting plate is available to reinforce a ceiling tile so that the tile provides adequate support. You can purchase the ceiling tile mounting plate from Cisco (Cisco part number CIVS-IPCA-1007=).

To mount the IP dome to a ceiling tile, perform the following steps. Make sure that the location in which you install the IP dome can support at least three times the weight of the IP dome.

Note When you disassemble the IP dome for mounting as described in these steps, make sure to remove any protective packing material that is installed between components.

Procedure

Step 1 Remove the dome assembly by unscrewing the three security TORX screws and pulling the dome away from the base plate (see Figure 2-11).

Use the TORX screwdriver that is provided with the IP dome to unscrew these screws.

Step 2 Remove the Privacy shield by squeezing it inward to release it from the four tabs that hold it into place (see Figure 2-11).

Step 3 Remove the camera unit from the base plate by using a Phillips-head screwdriver to unscrew the two camera unit screws and pressing the tabs that lock the camera unit to the base plate (see Figure 2-11).
