Cable Connections 

This section describes the procedures in preparing the external devices that you can connect 

to the camera. The camera main unit supports DC12V power input, Digital Input and Output 

(DI/DO), Audio Input and Output, and Serial devices using the bundled terminal blocks. The 

use of these devices, however, is optional.   

 

Connecting a Power Adapter (Optional) 

The camera can be powered by a Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch that is IEEE802.3af 

compliant. In case of using a non-PoE switch or your PoE switch has limited power supply, you 

can purchase a power adapter and directly connect the camera to a power outlet. The power 

adapter must be connected to the supplied terminal block before use. 

 

To do this, follow the procedures below: 

 

1.

 

Loosen the screws of the 

12V

 and 

GND

 pins of the power terminal block. 

 

2.

 

Take note that a standard power adapter cable has two (2) different wires: 

 

 

 

White stripe: Connects to 12V Pin 

Connects to GND Pin
