1.Hardware Installation
2.Connecting Power over Ethernet

Hardware Installation
The UniFi Video Camera G3 can be mounted on a wall, ceiling, or pole. Follow the appropriate steps for your installation:
Wall/Ceiling Mount
1.Remove the Mounting Base from the camera by turning the Tilt/Mount Lock counterclockwise.
2. Mark the mounting holes on the wall or ceiling.
Note: If you are running the cable along the wall or ceiling, position the Cable Slot towards the direction you want the cabling to run. For outdoor installations, position the Cable Slot downward.
3.Use a 7 mm (¼") drill bit to drill the mounting holes in the wall or ceiling.
Note: If you are running the Ethernet cable through the wall, cut a hole centered between the mounting holes that is large enough to feed the cable through.
4. Insert a Screw Anchor into each mounting hole.
5.If you are feeding the Ethernet cable through the wall or ceiling, do so now and feed it through the Mounting Base.
If not, feed the Ethernet cable through the Mounting Base and place the cable in the Cable Slot. These instructions show the Cable Slot positioned downward.
IMPORTANT: If you are installing your camera outdoors, create a drip loop for the cable below the camera to prevent water ingress.
6.Fasten the Mounting Base to the wall or ceiling using two
Self-Tapping Screws.
7.Remove the camera from the Adjustable Base by turning the Camera Ring in the direction shown.
8.Feed the Ethernet cable through the Cable Gland and
Adjustable Base. Seal the Cable Gland in place by firmly pressing around its edges. Then connect the cable to the
Ethernet Port on the camera.
Cable Gland 
IMPORTANT: For proper weather sealing, the Cable Gland must fit securely within the Adjustable Base when the camera is mounted. Ensure that the Cable Gland is securely seated during installation and cable routing.
9.Connect the camera back to the Adjustable Base by turning the Camera Ring in the direction shown.
10.Orient the camera to the desired position while connecting the Adjustable Base to the Mounting Base.
Note: You will fine-tune and then lock the positioning after you check the camera view in the UniFi Video software.
11. Proceed to the Connecting Power over Ethernet section.
Pole Mount
To mount the UniFi Video Camera G3 on a pole, a metal strap or hose clamp is required (not included).
1.Feed the metal strap through the slots on the Pole Mount Bracket.
