3.2 EXTENSION CABLES
• Included extension cable is 100ft / 30m long.
• Because this is a high-powered PTZ camera,
the power cable cannot
be extended beyond 100ft.
• Alternatively, you may connect the included power adapter
directly to the camera’s power connector and plug the adapter into
a power outlet near the camera. Use the included 100ft extension
cable to connect RS485 and BNC cables to your DVR or use the
guidelines below to extend the RS485 signal.
• BNC video and PTZ control (RS485) wires can be extended an
additional 250ft / 76m up to a maximum length of 350ft / 106m. Video
quality may decrease if your extension cables are too long.
• To extend BNC video cable beyond 100ft, purchase RG59 coaxial
extension cables. It is recommended to use video cables with the
following specification: RG59U 95% Braid 20AWG or better.
• To extend the PTZ control (RS485) wires beyond 100ft, purchase a pair
of 24-gauge wires.
• Both RG59 coaxial cable and 24-gauge wires should be available from
your local building supply store.
