INSTALLING MULTIPLE SEB5100 UNITS (SWITCH)

Use a dedicated, Pelco-approved Gigabit Ethernet switch to expand the video storage of the DVR5300 quickly and easily. First, conne ct the

DVR5300 to the switch. Then connect up to eight SEB5100 units to the switch. Contact Pelco’s Product Support for a list of approved Gigabit

Ethernet switches (refer to Appendix F: Troubleshooting on page43 for contact information).

To connect one or more SEB5100 units to a single DVR5300:

1. Connect one end of a UTP cable to the secondary network connector on the DVR5300 rear panel. Use a standard Cat5e or better UTP

cable with RJ-45 connectors.

NOTE: Do not connect the UTP cable to the primary network connector .

NOTES:

• You do not have to power down the DVR5300 to add an SEB5100 with a network switch.

• Do not connect the network switch for the SEB5100 units to the primary network connector .

• To change from a single UTP cable to a Gigabit Ethernet switch, you must shut down the DVR5300 and the SEB5100 (refer to

Unit Shutdown on page32).

3. Connect a standard Cat5e or better UTP cable from a free RJ-45 port on the switch to the secondary network connector on the rear

panel of each SEB5100.
