Connect the audio device to the AUDIO IN port and
speakers with a built-in amplifier to the AUDIO OUT
port. Use the AUDIO OUT port to listen to audio from
network cameras.
Use the AUDIO IN port to establish two-way
communication with cameras.
• This NVR does not feature a built-in audio amplifier
unit and therefore requires the user to purchase a
speaker system with a built-in amplifier separately.
It's possible to connect an amplified audio source to
the NVR, but microphones that do not have a built-
in amplifier will not function properly if connected
to the NVR directly. If this is the case, connect the
microphone to the NVR via a pre-amp.
• Check your local laws and regulations on making
audio recordings.
• The AUDIO IN port is not currently supported.

100-240V~
Connect network cameras or video encoders to the NVR
using RJ-45 cable (Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6). In addition to
cameras or video encoders, you can connect external
hubs (Optional: SmartIP-SW2112PF, SmartIP-SW2128PF)
to form a network. The NVR recognizes DirectIP™
network cameras automatically. Ports A through H
support PoE.
• We recommend that you use the Ext. port for
connecting to an external hub and using features
such as camera alignment.
• Green LED on the right will turn on when PoE comes
on line. Orange LED on the left will then flash once a
link has been established.
• If more than 16 cameras from video encoders are
registered on the NVR, video may not be displayed
smoothly in a remote program.

100-240V~
This port does not support PoE. It's possible to establish
a network with network cameras and external hubs
using a Cat6 cable.
• Green LED on the right will turn on if connected to
a 1000 BASE-T network. Orange LED on the left will
then flash once a link has been established.
• When using a Cat5e cable, the data transfer speed
may decrease depending on how to establish a
network.
