This product is for indoor use. Do not install it outdoors or in a humid environment without the appropriate
protective enclosure. Do not allow it to come into contact with any liquid.
Do not install or operate this product if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to liquids. If any of these
things happen, return it to Vaddio for safety and functional testing.
Use the power supply, power injector, or camera extension device included with or recommended for use
with this product. For products with power supplies, using the wrong power supply will void the warranty,
and could create unsafe operating conditions or damage the product. Note that power supplies for different
products may look nearly identical – always check the label for the output voltage.
Cabling Notes
Use Cat-5e or better cable and standard RJ-45 connectors (568B termination). We recommend using high-
quality connectors and a high-quality crimping tool.
Caution
Check Cat-5 cables for continuity before using them. Using the wrong pin-out may damage the camera
system and void the warranty.
Note
Use standard RJ-45 connectors and a good crimping tool. Do not use pass-through RJ-45 connectors.
Poorly terminated cables can damage the connectors on the product, cause intermittent connections, and
degrade signal quality. Test cable pin-outs and continuity before connecting them.
