complete the installation. See
Basic Connections
on page 11 for more information.
NOTES on using Ethernet cables:
For outdoor installations, it is recommended to use
exterior-grade
Ethernet cables (CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6); ordinary Ethernet cables are only
designed for indoor use and may deteriorate quickly when exposed to outdoor elements.
Exterior-grade Ethernet cables are waterproof and do not require a conduit.
CAUTION:
If the camera will be installed outdoors, be sure to waterproof the cable
connection by enclosing it inside a junction box or wrap it using a moisture-sealant tape,
such as
