Installation Guidelines
Before you begin the installation, review these guidelines:
•
The PTZ IP camera requires a network cable and a connection to a standard 10/100BaseT router or
switch. To power the PTZ IP camera with Power over Ethernet (PoE), a switch must be 802.3af
compliant.
•
If you are using the PTZ IP camera on a network connection that does not provide PoE, you must
use a third-party AC 24V power adapter.
•
If you are using an external speaker, microphone, input device, output device, or pan/tilt control
device, you must configure additional settings after installing and performing the initial set up of the
PTZ IP camera before the external device can fully operate. For detailed information about these
settings, see the
Cisco Video Surveillance PTZ IP Camera Configuration Guide
.
•
If you do not connect an external device (speaker, microphone, input, output, or pan/tilt control)
when you perform the following installation procedure, you can install any of these devices later.
