be viewed only on the MFD where the source is connected. Additionally some IP Camera can be controlled from NavNet3D (Pan-Tilt–Zoom ((PTZ)) IP Cameras only)

2.7.1.Analog Video

MFD8/12

The MFD8/12 units have 2 Analog Video inputs (PAL/NTSC) on 2 mm RCA (cinch) type connectors located on the rear of the display

MFDBB

The MFDBB unit has 4 Analog Video inputs (PAL/NTSC) on BNC type connectors (75 Ohms) located on the processor unit

2.7.2.IP Camera

IP Cameras are network devices that connect directly to a HUB. Up to 4 IP Camera can be connected to one NavNet3D network. At this time, only AXIS IP Cameras (www.axis.com) that support MPEG4 Video are compatible with NN3D. Certain Axis PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) IP Cameras may also be controlled with NN3D Systems for features such as pan, tilt, and zooming. When connecting an IP Camera to the HUB101, make sure that the dip switch for Power Synchronization is set to OFF (see 2.6.2 Power Synchronization for more information)

When Power Over Ethernet (POE) AXIS IP cameras are installed (example: AXIS212PTZ) Furuno recommends utilizing a separate POE Ethernet Switch to provide power and Ethernet data to each AXIS IP Camera with a single cable. Then, utilize a non-POE port on this switch to link the IP Cameras to a HUB101 in a NN3D Network.
