3. Network Connection and Conguration
3.1 Network Connection Types
There are many different ways that you can connect the camera to your network, depending on your applications requirements. You should always set the camera’s network settings according to your network congurations. The following diagrams depict some typical applications with guidelines on network settings. For more information on network settings, always consult with your network administrator or ISP as required.
Type 1— Direct Connection to a PC
Directly connect the camera to a PC using a standard Ethernet cable.
To extend the connection length, you should use a RJ-45 female/female coupler to connect two Ethernet cables together.
RJ-45 Coupler
Note
The LAN port of the camera supports auto MDI/MDIX (Medium dependent interface crossover) so there is no need to use cross-over cable.
To access the camera, the PC must be on the same network as the camera. The default IP address of the camera is a static one (192.168.1.30). Congure your PC’s IP address as 192.168.1. X (where X is a number between 2 to 254, excluding 30 and subnet mask as 255.255.255.0, and then your PC should be able to access the camera.
Type 2: Connecting Camera(s) to LAN
To add the camera(s) to an existing LAN, just connect the camera(s) to the hub or switch on your network. If you want to provide the camera power via the Ethernet connection, a PoE-enabled hub/switch is required.
3. Network Connection and Conguration
14 NCR875E(H)/NCR875PRO(H) l User Manual
Note
The LAN port of the camera supports auto MDI/MDIX (Medium dependent interface crossover) so there is no need for an uplink port or the use of a cross-over cable.
Assign an IP address to your camera following your network IP allocation policy. You can manually specify the IP address or allocate the IP address automatically using a DHCP server, if available on your network.
Then, you can monitor and mange the camera via a web browser from a local PC.
Router/Switch/Hub
Type 3: Remote Connection via the Internet
If the network where the camera resides is connected to the Internet, you can also provide remote access to your camera over the Internet.
Typically a broadband router has a built-in DHCP function to assign a local IP address to your camera. You can alternatively assign a xed IP address to the camera to prevent it from frequently changing.
Router
xDSL/Cable Modem
To access the camera from a local PC, simply use the local IP address of the camera.
To enable remote access, you must congure your router/rewall to for ward an incoming request to that xed local IP address of the camera. Therefore, when an external host sends a request to access your camera, the request will rst reach the router’s external IP address and then be forwarded to the local IP address of the camera.
Port forwarding is based on the service you want to provide. For example, forward HTTP port to enable remote web access to your camera, or RTSP port to enable access to video/audio streams from the camera.
3. Network Connection and Conguration
NCR875E(H)/NCR875PRO(H) l User Manual 15
If your camera is congured to use a non-standard HTTP port, then you have to forward that port accordingly.
