IP Camera-end Installation
The Smart Choice for Transmission Solutions
www.vigitron.com
Vigitron’s MaxiiNet™ Vi3305 is a revolutionary five port layer 2 PoE switch
providing 4 extended UTP ports powering cameras using PoE over
distances up to 3,000 feet. The Vi3305 can provide up to 37W PoE power
on each port when powered by Vi1120 external power supply. It eliminates
the need for power sources at camera site and lowers installation costs. The
Vi3305 is a Plug and Play device that eliminates the need for IP addressing;
complex set up while preventing any hacking from outside sources. All
switch ports can directly connect to any IP addressable device and pass
data. All networking features related to IP video are preprogrammed.
The Vi3305 uses Vigitron’s Symmetrical Bandwidth (SBW™) to maintain
10/100Mbps with virtually no transmission errors and extremely low latency
critical for high resolution transmission and PTZ operation. It needs to be
used in conjunction with Vi2301A or Vi2300A extenders at the remote
camera location.
It is equipped with LEDs to provide link status and configured data rate. No
IP setting or configurations are required and it is completely transparent to
the corporate IP network and higher layer protocols. The UTP cable needs
to be point to point without any branches.
Important Safety Warning
Ethernet Switch/NVR-end Installation
- Read and keep these instructions.
- Heed all warnings.
- Follow all instructions.
- Do not use this apparatus near water.
- Clean only with a dry cloth.
- Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
- This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should conform to all local
codes.
- DO NOT bundle UTP or Coax signals in the same conduit as high-voltage wiring.
- To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose these products to rain, moisture,
dripping or splashing.
- No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on Vigitron equipment.
- DO NOT install the unit in a place where the operating ambient temperature exceeds 75°C
or
is below - 40°C.
- Make sure that the external power supply output voltage is in the recommended range.
- Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including DVRs) that produce heat.
- Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at power source,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
- Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
- Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
- Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as when a power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled, objects have fallen inside the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed
to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
- The main plug is used as the disconnect device and shall remain readily operable.
WARNING! - To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose
this apparatus to rain or moisture. This apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases shall
be placed on the apparatus.
WARNING! - This apparatus is a Class I product. This product must
be connected to a mains socket outlet thru an AC to DC Power supply.
WARNING! - The mains plug is used as the disconnect device and
shall remain readily operable.
PoE Switches

Uplink Connections:
There are 2 ways to connect the Vi3305 Uplink to another network switch or
NVR, either fiber optics or Standard UTP Ethernet. Only one of these ports
can be active at the time.
a) Standard Ethernet RJ45 connector
- Connect the Uplink RJ45 connector of the Vi3305 to a standard Cat5/6
cable of maximum 328 feet (100m). Connect the other end of the cable to
the Ethernet port of the other network switch.
b) Fiber optics
-If you want to use fiber optics first you need to insert a suitable SFP that
matches your fiber optic cable into the Uplink SFP socket of the Vi3305.
Then connect the fiber optics cable to the SFP. Connect the other end of
SFP to the optical connector of the other network switch.
Power Supply:
-Connect a power supply to the power input of Vi3305. If there is no need
for providing PoE on 4 ports a 12VDC power supply such as Vi0012 will be
sufficient. If PoE is required at the ports you need to select a 48-57VDC
power supply such as Vi1120 that can provide maximum PoE capacity on
all 4 ports.
Extended Ethernet Ports:
- Connect a standard Cat5, or better, UTP cable of maximum 3,000 feet
(914m) to one of the Ethernet ports. The ports will automatically configure
as 10 or 100BaseT depending on the distance.
- Use an Ethernet and PoE “Extender” such as Vi2301A or Vi2300A at the
camera side.
- Connect one end of the long Coax cable to the BNC connector of Extended
port of “Extender”.

Up to four cameras, including high powered PTZ domes can be remotely powered without
the need for local power supplies.
Up/down links can use either the 100Base-T port or Fiber port for distances up to 80Km.
For smaller systems direct connection from Vi3305 to NVR or Computer running VMS can
eliminate the need for an extra network switch.
