1.
Connect the camera (BB-HCE481A), and turn the camera on.
Connect the camera to your PoE (Power over Ethernet) hub using a "straight" Cat5 Ethernet cable (customer-provided) to set up the camera.
Connect the Ethernet cable (customer-provided) to the camera.
Note
• Your PoE hub must be connected to the router. Refer to the manuals of the PoE hub for the instructions of the connection. Additionally, these instructions assume your PC is
already connected to the Internet and your network includes a router that is UPnP
™
(Universal Plug and Play) compliant.
Connect the Ethernet cable (customer-provided) to your PoE hub.
• If the camera's indicator does not light green, see pages 5-6 of the Troubleshooting on the CD-ROM.
• A noise can be heard during pan/tilt operation. This is normal.
Note
• Use a 4-pair UTP/STP cable.
• Do not use a relay connector or a hub between the camera and the PoE hub. These
devices may disturb the data or electricity transmission.
• If the PoE hub has indicators, the indicator lights on as shown in table below.
• If the PoE hub is turned off or power supply is temporarily cut off by the disconnection
of the Ethernet cable, it may take time for the PoE hub's indicators to light green.
• The indicator display differs depending on manufacturers, refer to the manuals of the
PoE hub.

Connecting an External Microphone, Speaker or TV
Note
• If you use an external microphone, excessive cable length or a poor quality cable can
cause a degradation in audio quality.
• The microphone cable should be no longer than 7 m (23 feet).
• Use a speaker with a built-in amplifier. The speaker connects to the camera with a
stereo audio cable similar to that used by your PC. The output signal is mono.
• Make sure the camera and speaker are turned off when connecting or disconnecting
the Audio/Video Cable or speaker cable, otherwise noise may be heard from the
speaker.
• Use only the included Audio/Video Cable when connecting an external microphone,
speaker, or TV.
• When the camera is in color night view mode, images may not be displayed correctly
on the TV.
• The external microphone input (via the Audio/Video Cable) does not correspond to a
line level. Audio may be distorted when the line level is input. Audio distortion will be
solved if you insert the following circuits. Under no circumstance should high-level
audio, such as from a speaker, be connected to this input terminal. Doing so is likely
to damage the camera.
