Camera Cabling
The outdoor models are being IP66-rated to prevent water from entering the
camera. However, water might still enter the camera if it is being improperly
installed. Please make sure the warnings below are strictly followed when
installing the camera.
NOTE:
This camera must be installed by qualified personnel and the
installation should conform to all local codes.
Place all cables and the adaptor in dry and well-waterproofed
environments, e.g. waterproof boxes. The purpose is to prevent moisture
accumulation inside the camera and moisture penetration into cables.
While running cables, slightly bend the cables to a U-shaped curve to
make a low point (as demonstrated in the figures below). The purpose is
to prevent water from entering the camera along the cables from above.
The cable entry hole of the outdoor mounting kit (indicated in the figure
below) needs to be sealed with thread seal tape to avoid water from
entering the camera.
