Connect network cameras or video encoders to the
NVR using RJ-45 cable (Cat5e, or Cat6). In addition to
cameras or video encoders, you can connect external
hubs (Optional: DH-2112PF, DH-2128PF) to form a
network. The NVR recognizes DirectIP™ network cameras
automatically. Ports 1 through 16 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.
●
Video In / Ext. Port
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.
Network Connection
This NVR is capable of connecting to networks via an
ethernet connector. Connect an RJ-45 cable (Cat5e, or
Cat6) to the NVR's network port. It's possible to operate
and upgrade the NVR remotely over a network. Fore
more information on ethernet connection setup, refer to
Network Setup in the operation manual
.
•
Connector directions may vary depending on the
NVR model.
•
Green LED on the right will begin to flash if
connected a 1000 BASE-T network. Orange LED
on the left will then flash once a link has been
established.
