Waterproofing the Camera
After configuring your camera, follow the instructions below to prevent
water from entering the camera's Ethernet and Power Cable connections.
If you are using an Ethernet connection, follow the instructions below to
prevent water from entering the camera's Ethernet cable connector.
Waterproofing Your Connectors When Using Wi-Fi
Waterproofing Your Ethernet Connector
Using Waterproof Tape
1. Plug the power adapter into the dongle.
Wind waterproof tape, such as butyl rubber or vinyl
tape, around the individual cables and connectors
in a half-overlapping manner then wrap all the
connectors together. Be sure to cover all of the
connectors and any unsheathed cables.
Note:
Butyl rubber tape should be wrapped by stretching the
tape to about twice its length, and wrapping it around the cable.
Failure to stretch the tape sufficiently will result in insufficient
waterproofing performance.
Caution:
Due to its IP65 rating we recommend that you install your device under a roof or a shelter to
protect the Power and Ethernet connections from water seepage. The cables and connections need to
be located away from all potential water hazards.
1. Connect the power and Ethernet cables.
2. To waterproof the Ethernet socket, align the cap
according to the thread and twist it clockwise to
seal it.
