Introduction to the Quasar HD PTZ Camera
CP-3211/CP-4221 User and Installation Guide
3.3.1 Connecting the Unit to the Network
A Cat 5 Ethernet cable is recommended for network connection. To ensure transmission quality, cable
length should not exceed 100 meters (328 feet). Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ45
connector of the system cable. Plug the other end of the cable into the network switch or PC. Check the
status of the link and the activity LEDs. If the LEDs are unlit, check the LAN connection.
A steady green link LED indicates good network connection.
The yellow activity LED flashes to indicate network activity.
3.3.2 Connecting Power to the Camera
Depending on the model, the camera is powered by PoE+, Ultra PoE, or by an external 24VAC adaptor
(not included in the package).
·
If using an external power supply, connect the power leads or three-pin power terminal block to the
power supply.
· If using PoE, make sure that a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) device is used in the network.
Make sure the camera’s power cable is properly connected. All electrical work must be performed in
accordance with local regulatory requirements.
