About Connection Cables

Be careful of the following items when connecting the cables. ¥ Turn OFF the power supply to all

components before making connections.

Cable	Maximum extension (No cable
	compensator)
RG-59	200m
RG-6	350m
RG-11	450m

To Video

Signal Cable

To DC 12 V or

AC 24 V

Power Supply

DC 12 V or AC 24 V power supply cable Connect the DC 12 V or the AC 24 V power supply to the DC 12V/AC 24V terminals on the terminal board. To prevent connection errors or a cable disconnection, we recom- mend the use of lug plates for the connec- tions.

The following table shows the connection dis- tances and connection cables provided that 2-conductor VVF cables (vinyl-insulated vi- nyl sheath cables) are used.

Conductor diameter (mm)		¿1.0mm	¿1.6mm	¿2.0mm
		(AWG18)	(AWG14)	(AWG12)
Maximum	DC 12V	60m	160m	250m
extension (m)		(200ft)	(520ft)	(820ft)
	AC 24V	150m	400m	600m
		(490ft)	(1300ft)	(2000ft)

CAUTION:

¥If thin cables are used (i.e. with a high resistance), a significant voltage drop will occur when the unit is at its maximum power consumption. Either use a thick cable to restrict the voltage drop at the camera side to below 10%, or place the power supply near to the camera. If voltage drop occurs during operation, the performance will be unstable.

¥Do not allow input from both a DC 12 V and AC 24 V power supply at the same time.

¥When using a DC 12 V power supply, ensure that the polarities of the cable are correct.

¥The AC 24 V power supply should

conform to the following:

U-type:	Class 2 only
E-type:	Isolated power supply only
