Installing the Camera Connecting the Camera Cable Extension Options

ATTENTION - Test all connections and ensure the camera is working

correctly prior to permanent installation by temporarily connecting the
camera(s) and cable(s) to the viewing / recording solution.

Before installing the camera:

• Decide whether to run the
cables through the wall /
ceiling (drilling required)
or along the wall / celing.

• If you run the cables along
the wall / ceiling, you
must run the cable through
the cable notch on the

Cable Notch

base. This will keep the
camera base flush to the wall / ceiling when mounted.

To install the camera:

1. Set the camera in the desired mounting
position and mark holes for the screws.

To Camera: To Monitor/DVR:

Male Power

BNC

Connect the BNC and power
connectors to the camera

Female Power

Connect the BNC connector to
the video input of the monitor /
DVR, and connect the included
power connector to a power
adapter. See Setup Diagram
below for details.

Extend the cable run for your camera up to 300ft or more depending
on the cable type used. See table below:

Option Cable Type Max Cable

1 Regular BNC

(supplied with camera)

2 ‘RG59’ or ‘Coax’ or ‘Coaxial

BNC’
(sold seperately)

3 Lorex Universal Cable

(sold seperately)

Notes:

1. For optimal performance, consider using option 2 or 3. It is best to use the
same cable type for the entire distance.

2. Cable run recommendation based on typical camera power consumption
(up to 500mA). For specialty cameras with higher current consumption,
maximum cable run may be reduced. Consider providing power to the
camera at the camera side, rather then at the end of the extension cable.

3. Indicators that your cable run may be too long:

• Video is permanently black & white (even during day time)

• Video is distorted

BNC to RCA Adapter (Optional)

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution

2. Drill the holes for the mounting screws.

3. Connect the video and power cables as
shown in the next section ‘Connecting The
Camera‘.

4. Feed the cable through the cable notch (if
running the cables along the wall / ceiling) or
through the mounting surface (if running the
cables through the wall / ceiling).

5. Mount the camera stand to the desired surface
using the provided screws. Make sure all three
screws are fastened tightly at the connection
points.

6. Set the position and angle of the camera using
the provided Allen key.

2. Loosen the screw near the stand
and adjust the camera’s vertical
position.

1. Twist the ring to tighten/
loosen the stand connection
and adjust the camera’s
horizontal position.

3. If needed, loosen the screw near
the camera and twist the camera
head on the mounting stand.

Attach the included BNC to RCA adapter to connect the extension
cable to RCA inputs (i.e. for a TV connection).
