2. CAMERA CABLING

The outdoor models are being IP66-rated to prevent water from entering the camera. However, water might still enter the camera if it is being improperly installed. Please make sure the warnings below are strictly followed when

installing the camera.

 Place all cables and the adaptor in dry and well-waterproofed

environments, e.g. waterproof boxes. The purpose is to prevent moisture accumulation inside the camera and moisture penetration into cables.

 While running cables, slightly bend the cables to a U-shaped curve to

make a low point (as demonstrated in the figures below). The purpose is to prevent water from entering the camera along the cables from above.

 The cable entry hole of the outdoor mounting kit (indicated in the figure

below) needs to be sealed with thread seal tape to avoid water from entering the camera.

2.1 POWER CONNECTION

To power up the camera, connect the DC 12V / AC 24V power adaptor to the power connector of the camera and the power outlet. Refer to the diagram

and pin definition table below for AC 24V power connection.

Alternatively, users can use an Ethernet cable and connect it to the RJ-45

port of the camera and an IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) 4-Pair 60W switch.

Zero Downtime Power Switching (ZDT)

When users connect DC12V power jack and the RJ-45 port at the same time,

the power input comes from the DC 12V connector. If the DC 12V power source fails, the camera will switch power input seemly to the RJ-45 port until

the DC 12V power source is restored.

2.2 ETHERNET CABLE CONNECTION

To connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector of the

camera, and plug the other end of the cable to the network switch or PC.

NOTE: In some cases, Ethernet crossover cable might be needed

when connecting the camera directly to the PC.

NOTE: Check the status of the link indicator and activity indicator

LEDs. If the LEDs are unlit, please check the LAN connection.
