2.1.5 Wiring, Fire Prevention, Lightning and Surge Protection
When installing the wiring inside or outside of buildings, make sure you always adhere
to the relevant regulations on wiring, fire prevention and protection against lightning.
MOBOTIX cameras are protected against the effects of small electrical surges by a range
of measures. These measures, however, cannot prevent the camera from being damaged
when stronger electrical surges occur. Particular care should be taken when installing the
camera outside to ensure proper
protection against lightning
, as this also protects the
building and the entire network infrastructure.
MOBOTIX recommends having MOBOTIX cameras installed only by certified specialists
accustomed to installing network devices and having proper respect for the applicable
regulations regarding lightning protection and fire prevention as well as the current tech-
nology for preventing damages from electrical surges.
Guidelines for Wiring
• Data cable
: Make sure you only use double-shielded CAT5
or higher cable (
S/STP
) for Ethernet connections.
• Outdoors
: Installing the camera outdoors requires special
precautions and measures regarding the cables as well
as lightning and surge protection (see below).
• Wire lengths
: The cable segments must not exceed the
maximum allowed cable lengths in order to ensure proper
data transfer (see
• Avoiding induction
: When running data cables parallel to existing regular power
lines or high-voltage wires, make sure you observe the minimum distances to the
power cables.
Fire Prevention
When installing the power lines to the camera, make sure you always adhere to the
country-specific regulations (e.g. VDE in Germany, IEEE in the USA) in effect on wiring and
fire prevention at the site of the installation.
Lightning and Surge Protection
In order to avoid damage to MOBOTIX cameras from overvoltages, you should always
install the MX-Overvoltage-Protection-Box. This competitively priced and weatherproof
network connector provides reliable protection against overvoltages of up to 4 kV; the box
is easily installed in the Outdoor Wall Mount, for example (see
Section 1.5.8, «MX-Overvoltage-
More information is available at an institution such as the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC,

) or at a manufacturer of protection devices against light-
ning and electrical surges, such as Dehn (
