Installation instructions 

There are 3 options to mount the camera, related to the possibilities of cable routing: 

 

Routing cables through the wall, through the mounting bracket to the camera body = wall-feed cabling.  

 

Routing cables from the bottom into the mounting bracket, through the mounting bracket to the camera 
body. This requires drilling a cable feed hole through a pre-stamped location on the mounting bracket = 
bottom-feed cabling. 

 

Routing cables from side or bottom through a conduit box (not included), into the camera bracket to the 
camera body. 

BRACKET MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR WALL-FEED CABLING 

Follow the steps below to install the FireCatcher Camera. 

1 Mount the bracket

 

 

Fix the wall mount bracket against the wall by means 
of 4 screws and wall plugs, leading the 
power/outputs cable and the Ethernet cable through 
the bracket. 

Leave approximately 30 cm of cable above the 
bracket for ease of handling. 

The Ethernet RJ45 connector can be assembled 
before or after leading the Ethernet cable through the 
bracket.  

The power and alarm connectors need to be attached 
after leading the cable through the bracket. See 

 for 

connection instructions.  

 

Proceed with camera body mounting. 

BRACKET MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR BOTTOM-FEED CABLING 

1 Drill cable feed hole 

 

 

Drill a hole in the bottom of the bracket, large enough 
to fit your wiring.  

Do not forget to seal the hole with silicone after 
guiding the wires through, at the end of the installation.
