Cabling Notes
Caution
When making cables, do not use pass-through RJ-45 connectors. If they are crimped
incorrectly, they can damage the connectors on the product, cause intermittent
connections, and degrade signal quality. Physical damage to the connectors may void
your warranty.
Intact
– will make reliable contact
with cable connector
Damaged
– Bent contact fingers
will NOT make reliable contact
with cable connector
Use Cat-5e or better cable. We recommend using high-quality connectors and a high-quality crimping tool.
We recommend shielded cabling if the cables will be coiled, run tightly with other cables, or placed close
sources of electromagnetic interference such as power lines.
Caution
Check your cables. Connecting a cable to the wrong port or using the wrong pin-out can result in equipment
damage and will void the warranty.
Pro Tip
To prevent tragic mishaps, label both ends of every cable.

Note
Talk to the network administrator before you connect the equipment.
If you install this equipment on a non-DHCP network (one that uses only static IP addresses), you may
need to configure the camera with a static IP address before you connect it to the network. Work with the
network administrator to determine how to configure the equipment.
