NOTES:
Pelco recommends connecting the camera to a network that uses a Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) server to address devices.
Do not use a HUB in the network setup of the camera.
To secure access to the IP camera, place the camera behind a firewall when it is connected to a
network.

through the network using Power over Ethernet (PoE). If PoE is not available, the camera is
prewired for 24 VAC.
îEthernet Activity LED: Flashes green to indicate that data is being transmitted/received by the
camera.
ïEthernet Link LED: Glows solid amber to indicate that a live connection is established.
ñAccessory Port: For use with compatible Pelco accessories.
