Connecting the Nextiva S1800e Series Encoder
This section explains how to connect the video, network and power cables to the Nextiva S1800e series
encoder.
►
To connect the cables for video and network:
1. Plug the video cables from the analog cameras to the BNC connectors on the rear of the encoder.
2. Plug an ethernet cable into the LAN 1 network (RJ-45) connector on the front of the encoder. LAN 2 on the
encoder is used by Verint support for debugging purposes.

To connect the wiring for power:
NOTE:
You can use the PS1261 or any other certified power supply to connect to the Nextiva S1800e series
encoder. If you plan on using a power supply other than the PS1261, ensure that it is certified with an
output voltage rating of 12V DC and an output current rating of 1.8A up to 3A. The power wire gauge
should be in the wire range of 28-16 AWG in order to properly engage the terminal block plug.
1. Remove the terminal block plug from the rear of the encoder.
2. Verify the polarity of each wire from the power supply according to the attached label.
3. Connect the positive power wire in the corresp12V pole and the negative power wire in the
corresponding GND pole on the terminal block plug and screw them into place using 1.7 in-lb (0.19 N-m)
force.
4. Connect the terminal block plug to the on the rear of the encoder.
5. Connect the power supply to an outlet or UPS.
6. If required, connect the serial ports of the Nextiva S1800e encoder to the PTZ cameras.
NOTE:
If you are using the PS1282 power supply with a PDP10-2 power distribution panel, refer to the
PDP10-2
Installation Guide
that is shipped with the PDP10-2 to set up the power distribution panel.
