1. If an external microphone or speaker is required, connect the devices to the audio connector.
2. Connect a network cable to the camera’s Ethernet Port (RJ-45 connector).
a. Loosen the cable retaining eyelet and rotate it out of the cable track.
b. Wrap the cable around the cable track to prevent the cable connector from becoming over-
stressed and cause poor video performance.
c. Once the cable is in place, move the cable retaining eyelet over the cable and tighten the eyelet
into place.
3. If external input or output devices are part of the installation (for example: door contacts,relays, etc),
connect the devices to the I/O Terminals.
Route the external power cable around the outside of the cable track to help avoid cable strain.
4. Connect power using one of the following methods:
o
Power over Ethernet (PoE) Class 3 or PoE Plus Class 4 — Connect a PoE compliant injector or
switch to the Ethernet network cable.
o
External Power — Connect an external “Class 2” or “LPS” or “Limited Power Source” with output
rated 24 VAC +/- 10%, 37 VA minimum or 24 VDC +/- 10%, 26 W minimum.
Tip:
When installing in cold environments, use PoE Plus Class 4 or external power to defrost or defog the
dome bubble more quickly.
5. If you are using the bottom cable entry hole, cover the opening with silicone sealant after the cable
connections have been made. This will help prevent excessive moisture from entering the camera.
