
Connect the camera cable to the DC IN connector and
connect the LAN cable to the RJ45 connector
respectively. If you use a camera module interface board
or a hub with support for PoE, you can operate the
camera even if you do not connect the camera cable to
the DC IN connector. When you connect the LAN cable
with fastening screws, turn the two screws on the
connector to secure the cable tightly.

Connect the other end of the camera cable to the DC-
700/700CE and the other end of the LAN cable to the
camera module interface board or a hub.
Note
Do not supply power to the camera cable and LAN cable
at the same time.
