Cabling Considerations
: Using a cable longer than the manufacturer’s specifications for
optimal video signal may result in degradation of color and video parameters.
•

ensure that the unit cannot be disabled or tampered with, the system should be installed with
security measures regarding physical access by trusted and untrusted parties.

outputs, alarm inputs, racks, carpeting, etc.) shall be properly grounded to prevent electrostatic
discharge.
