AXIS Q6044 PTZ Dome Network Camera
Multi-Connector Cable (sold separately)
Multi-Connector Cable (sold separately)
When connecting external equipment to the Axis product, a multi-connector cable (available from Axis) is required in order to
maintain the product’s IP rating. The multi-connector cable can be purchased from your Axis reseller.
Connect the multi-connector cable to the product’s multi-connector. To locate the multi-connector, see
Hardware Overview on page
7
. The cable provides the following connectors:
Power connector -
3-pin terminal block used for power input. See image below. Use a Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) compliant
limited power source (LPS) with either a rated output power limited to
≤
100 W or a rated output current limited to
≤
5 A.
Audio in (pink) -
3.5 mm input for a mono microphone, or a line-in mono signal (left channel is used from a stereo signal).
Audio out (green) -
3.5 mm output for audio (line level) that can be connected to a public address (PA) system or an active speaker
with a built-in amplifier. A stereo connector must be used for the audio out.
I/O terminal connector -
Use with external devices in combination with, for example, tampering alarms, motion detection, event
triggering, time lapse recording and alarm notifications. In addition to the 0 V DC reference point and power (DC output), the I/O
connector provides the interface to:
•
Digital output — For connecting external devices such as relays and LEDs. Connected devices can be activated by the
VAPIX® Application Programming Interface, output buttons on the Live View page or by an Action Rule. The output
will show as active (shown under
System Options > Port & Devices > Port Status
) if the alarm device is activated.
•
Digital input — An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle between an open and closed circuit, for
example: PIRs, door/window contacts, glass break detectors, etc. When a signal is received the state changes and
the input becomes active (shown under
System Options > Port & Devices > Port Status
).

Max load = 250 mA
Digital input – Connect to pin 1 to activate, or leave
floating (unconnected) to deactivate.

Digital output – Connected to pin 1 when activated,
floating (unconnected) when deactivated. If used with
an inductive load, e.g. a relay, a diode must be connected
in parallel with the load, for protection against voltage
transients.
0 to max 40 V DC, open
