What does this mean?
Connecting the Cameras
Connect to your Home Network
Connect the Ethernet cable (supplied) to the LAN connection on the NVR, and then connect the other end to a spare
port on your router or wireless access point.
It’s important to do this as it allows the NVR to connect to the Internet to update its internal clock so the time it
shows on the video is always accurate, to send you email notifications and to access from your smartphone or
tablet.
Connect the Mouse
Connect the NVR to your HDTV
Connect the HDMI cable (supplied) to the HDMI input on the NVR, and connect the other end to a spare HDMI input on
the TV. Make sure your HDTV input matches the physical connection used to connect your NVR.
Connect the NVR to your Monitor (optional)
Connect the Power Adapters

It doesn’t really matter which port you use as they are quite versatile and will be configured in a later step. Please note;
the Ethernet cable is the same at both ends so it doesn’t matter which end plugs into the camera or NVR.
