Connect your GXV3500
Using the Power adapter as power supply
Connect the video output of an analog camera to the VIN port on the GXV3500 using
a BNC (75Ω) cable.
Connect an RJ 45 cable to the NETWORK port of the GXV3500
Connect the other end of the RJ 45 cable to your network or PC directly
Connect the bare wire marked as 12V from the power supply to the DC 12V plug on
the back of the GXV3500. Connect the negative wire to the GND plug.
Connect the other end of the power supply to a wall outlet.
Using PoE as power supply:
Connect the video output of an analog camera to the VIN port on the GXV3500 using
a BNC (75Ω) cable.
Connect a RJ 45 cable to the NETWORK port of GXV3500
Connect the other end of the RJ 45 cable to a PoE switch.
NOTE: If you are going to connect the device to a hub/switch/router, please use a
straight-through cable. A cross over cable should be used if you are going to connect the
