About the Camera

Congratulations on your purchase of this Swann 3MP Network Video
Camera with Power Over Ethernet. You’ve made a fine choice for keeping a

watchful eye over your home or business. The camera delivers brilliant and
amazingly clear high definition images and videos in both day and nighttime
conditions even in complete darkness. Designed in an elegant, unobtrusive
weatherproof casing with an integrated 3-axis mounting bracket, the
camera is versatile enough to be installed on walls and ceilings - indoors
or outdoors and will be an excellent addition to your Swann POE NVR
monitoring solution.

This instruction manual will walk you through the basics of installing and
connecting your camera.

Installation and Connection

General Guidelines

• The internal components of the camera can be damaged by prolonged exposure to
direct sunlight. Don’t let direct sunlight into the lens!

• The camera gets great images when it’s in the shade, looking at subjects that are
well lit. Don’t place the camera in bright light and have it facing shade or darkness.

• Bright light sources to the sides of, or behind the subject will interfere with your
images.

• The camera’s night vision will give well-exposed images if the area is dark. However,
if there’s a bright point source in the camera’s view (a streetlight, car headlights or
similar) then it might not engage night vision mode.

• Typically, the best view is obtained approximately 7ft (2m) to 10ft (3m) high, looking
slightly downwards.

• The camera can be mounted to a wall or ceiling.

Weather & Tampering

The camera’s casing is resistant to water, different weather conditions and tampering.
It would take an overwhelming event of this kind to damage the housing of the camera
(severe weather such as hurricanes or someone intentionally damaging the lens would
be enough). However, the cable and connector are vulnerable and require protection.

Cable Management

For best results, run the cable inside a wall cavity or other protected enclosure, and
ensure that the network cable connection is safely sealed away from rain, direct sunlight
and potential vandals.

Ethernet Cable

IMPORTANT!

When connecting network cables:

• When plugging or unplugging the network cable, hold the plug portion of the cable.
When unplugging, do not pull on the network cable but unplug while pressing down on
the lock.

• Never place strain of any kind on the network cable connection. It’s designed to clip into
place to prevent slippage, but it won’t support any weight and can be easily broken by a
sharp tug. Exercise caution.

• Ensure that cables are sheltered from moisture, weather and sunlight. The network
cable connection was designed and intended for indoor use with computer networking

- while it’s ideal for handling the massive data loads that network cameras require, it’s
not weatherproof.

• If you are installing the camera outside of your home, we highly recommend using
waterproof tape to wrap the cable connection area between the camera’s Network
(LAN) port and the extension cable’s Ethernet plug. Use as much as is necessary for the
layer of tape to protect the connection. This will help prevent water or moistuire from
leaking into the cable which can cause the network cable connection to degrade over
time or stop working.

• If you are cutting your own Ethernet cable, the supplied waterproof connector cover can
be used to protect the your network cable connection especially in high moisture areas.
