1.BNC output：

BNC video output is divided into: PAL/NTSC BNC(1.0V

P-P

，75Ω)，can be connected to monitor or

surveillance integrated equipment such as DVR, etc.

BNC output can support preview of the monitor image only.

Make sure the stable and reliable of transmission link：

The video transmission line should adopt high quality coaxial pair which is chosen by the
transmission distance. If the transmission distance is too far, it should adopt shielded twisted pair, video
compensation equipment and transmit by fiber to insure the signal quality.

The video signal line should be away from the electro magnetic Interference and other equipments
signal lines. The high voltage current should be avoided especially.

Insure the connection stable and credible

The signal and shield lines should be firm and connected credible which avoid false and joint
welding and oxidation.

2. Network output：

Connect to LAN and WAN via common standard, using the PC that is in the same LAN line with IPC by
software or IE browser to set parameters, real-time preview, remote playback and download, etc.
