Chapter 2. Camera Cabling
Before users connect cables, make sure that all cables and the power adaptor are placed in dry
and well-waterproofed environments, e.g. waterproof boxes. The purpose is to prevent moisture
accumulation inside the camera and moisture penetration into cables, which might lead to camera
breakdown. Please follow the instructions below to complete camera connection.
2.1 Connect Ethernet Cable
Indoor Camera
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector of the indoor camera, and plug the
other end to a PSE switch. Check the status of both power and network activity indicator LEDs. If
either LED is unlit, please check the corresponding connection.
NOTE
: Please use an Ethernet cable without the boot cover to connect the indoor camera.
Otherwise, the dome cover cannot be installed.
Green Power LED lights up when the camera is powered up.
Orange Network LED (1) flashes when data is being transmitted
over network, (2) lights up for good network connection.
Outdoor Camera
Follow the instruction below to waterproof the connector of the RJ-45 cable.
Plug the Ethernet cable to the connector of
the RJ-45 cable and coat the joint with
silicone gel. Make sure there is no gap
between the Ethernet cable and the
connector; otherwise, waterproof function
cannot be guaranteed.
2.2 Camera Installation
The following description demonstrates how to directly install the camera to the ceiling or to the
