CONNECTIONS

Power-in Connections

Notes:

Use only a class-2 power supply suitable to the voltage and current required by the camera. See specifications.

Use a UL listed cable (VW-1, style 1007) to pre- vent fire or electric shock.

You can use the formula below to select the power supply, and power cable. The supplied voltage to the power-in terminals must be between 10.8V and 16V.

10.8V(minimum) VA – 2RLI 16V (maximum)

VA: Output voltage of power supply

R:Resistance (/m) (/ft), see table

L:Cable length (m) (ft)

I:Consumption current (A), see specifications

Network Connection Types

Use a router or switching hub when multiple cam- eras are connected.

Use a router handling PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) when running PPPoE to connect with the Internet, because the camera is incapable of it.

Use network cables complying with category5.
