DDNS SET-UP AND REGISTRATION
An Automated Confirmation email will be sent
E
to you. Make sure to Record the following
information.
• Your account name is: (e.g.) myhouse1
• Your account password is: (e.g.) password
• Your Digimerge license number is: (e.g.)
IPNC-000000000000
You can visit http://ddns.digimerge.net to
change your account information and to set
up additional Digimerge devices.
Set up your IP product to use this service as
follows:
1. Use a web browser to access the Settings
screen of the camera.
2. Select the Network Services tab.
3. Enter the following settings:
DDNS Domain: myhouse (.digimerge.net)
Account Name: myhouse1
4. When you have finished entering the
correct information for the DDNS service,
check-on the ‘Enable Digimerge Dynamic
DNS Service’ checkbox.
myhouse1
To verify that your camera is properly set up
for DDNS, click on the ‘register with DDNS
service’ link. This will bring up the Digimerge
DDNS Account login screen. Log in using
the account information given above and
then click on the ‘System Logs’ link on the left
hand menu. If the Recent Activity log includes
the message ‘Automatic IP update’ and the
date/time of the message is very recent,
then your camera has updated the server
correctly.
NOTE: Please note that normal latencies
in the update protocol and Internet
propagation delays require you to wait
between 5 and 15 minutes and
sometimes even longer for your network
URL to become fully available and
operational over the Internet. This is
normal for the DDNS system. Attempting
to use the URL within the first 5 minutes
of registration may also prolong the URL
update time.
The URL for accessing your video is:
(e.g. myhouse.digimerge.net). When
setting up Internet Explorer for remote
access, use this URL in place of the IP
Address.
If you set up a router for port forwarding
to your IP Product, note that the default
web port is 80 and the default streaming
video port is 554.
For more information, please refer to the
owner’s manual.
Port Forward your Router:
F
You will need to Forward ports
554 (default video port), 80
(default web port). All routers
are different. To Port Forward
your Router: Refer to your
Router’s manual for specific instructions on port forwarding or
check DNS1010 product page
on Digimerge website

POWER OVER ETHERNET (PoE)
Power over Ethernet, also known as PoE, is a
technology for carrying power along with data on
standard CAT5 network cables, allowing devices
to be powered via their network ports. It is supported by some devices directly (i.g. 802.3af
compliant or “PoE Enabled” devices) while
other devices require PoE accessories, such as
PoE Endspans, PoE Midspans, power injectors
and/or active splitters, in order to make use of the
technology.
Power is injected on the Ethernet Cable Data
Pairs using:
• PoE Endspan – PoE enabled Ethernet switch
• PoE Midspan - PoE multi port injector for use
with non-PoE Ethernet switches
• PoE Injectors – Adapter that injects Power into
an Ethernet cable. Can be used in combination
with an active splitter (for connecting to non PoE devices) or used on its own (for connecting
to PoE enabled devices)
• Active Splitter – An adapter that splits the Date
and Power transmissions over a single Ethernet
cable (PoE) into a separate Date (using RJ45
connector) and power stream (using power
barrel connector) for use strictly with non-PoE
devices.
NOTE that PoE allows devices to be powered
with a power rating of up to 12.9W. Devices that
consume more then 12.9W but less than 39W
require use of High Power PoE (IEEE-802.3at)
devices. High Power PoE devices like the 8000
series from Microsemi are readily available. An
example of an IP camera that would require High
Power PoE to power it up would be PTZ Speed
Dome cameras which consume a lot of power.
A detailed description of the 802.3af standard is
available in IEEE publication SS95312
(http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/download/
802.3af-2003.pdf).
The main benefits of PoE technology are as
follows:
Lower Costs
• Eliminate the need to run A/C power wires
• Utilize existing IT infrastructure investments
More Flexible
• Locate device where it truly needs to be located
(Not constrained by the location of an AC outlet)
Centralize vs Localize Power Source
• Allow use of a centralized UPS (Uninterruptible
power supply) to guarantee power to the device
even during a power failure
Manageability
• PoE devices that are Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP) manageable can be remotely
monitored and controlled
The main benefits of PoE Midspan use over PoE
Endspan use are:
• Improve ROI on current installations
• Minimize capital expenditure
- Keep the existing Switches
• Lower purchase price
- 30% less than Enterprise PoE switch
• Easy and simple to install
- Lower installation costs - 20% less than Enterprise
PoE switch
- Enable higher productivity - Negligible downtime
• PoE investment is protected
- Switch technology changes
- Why pay for PoE every time you upgrade your switch?
• Gain flexibility to power also pre-standard terminals
Examples of PoE installations using…
PoE Endspan
Endspan IP camera (PoE enabled)
Endspan Active Splitter IP Camera (non-PoE)
PoE Midspan
Non-PoE Ethernet Switch Midspan IP Camera (PoE
enabled)
Non-PoE Ethernet Switch Midspan Active Splitter
IP Camera (non-PoE)
PoE Injector
Non-PoE Ethernet Switch PoE Injector IP Camera
(PoE enabled)
Poe Injector + Splitter
Non-PoE Ethernet Switch PoE Injector Active Splitter
IP Camera (non-PoE)
Digimerge IP Devices are certified for use with
Microsemi PoE hardware solutions. Visit www.microsemi.
com/PowerDsine for details on all available PoE hardware
solutions.
