INSTALLATION DIAGRAM
EN-U3000 SAMPLE INSTALLATION DIAGRAM
1. You will notice that the diagram illustrates using 2 P oE Network Switches. 8 Port PoE Switch and 24 Po rt PoE
Switch. That’s because the diagram is illustrat ing 30 EasyNet HD cameras installation since EN-U3000 is a 30channel NVR. It will be difficult to source 48 Port Po E swit ch that outputs true 15.4 watts per port. Ther efore, at
this time, it is recommended that you use 8 Port PoE Switch & 24 Port PoE Switch that truly outputs 15.4 watts
per port.
2. The Make and Model of the PoE Network Switch illust rated in the diagram is:
a. 8 Port: Make: ifs Model: GE-DS-82-POE
b. 24 Port: Make: ifs Model: GE-DSSG-244-POE
3. These network switches have dedicated 2 extra 1 Gbps port that are used for 2 purposes.
• To link the 2 network switches together using faster 1 Gbps port instead of standard 100Mbps PoE
ports.
• To link up to the EN-U3000 Net B network port that is configured for private camera network to
guarantee the reliability and the performance.
Important Note: Make sure that the Net B is connected to the dedicated 1 Gbps on the switch and Net A is connected to
the standard internet router.
