Camera Installation
1.6.5
Connecting Power
The camera can be powered with a conventional ac or dc power
supply, rather than PoE+. Prior to making any connections,
ensure the power supply or circuit breaker is switched off.
The power cable supplied by the installer must use wires that are sufficient size gauge for the supply
voltage and length of the cable run, to ensure adequate current carrying capacity (18 AWG
recommended for most installations). Always follow local building/safety codes.
Note
The power connector plug may be removed for cable installation. After the plug is reattached to the
board, re-tighten the screw terminals.
The camera itself does not have an on/off switch. Generally the FC-Series camera may be connected
to a circuit breaker and the circuit breaker will be used to apply or remove power to the camera. If
power is supplied to it, the camera will be powered on and operating.
1.6.6
Ethernet
Connect a shielded cat5e/6 Ethernet cable to the
RJ-45 jack. If using PoE+ to supply power to the
camera, connect the other end of the Ethernet to a
PoE+ switch or PoE+ injector. Otherwise connect
the Ethernet to a network switch.
