Camera Installation
1.3
The FB-Series O camera is an infrared thermal imaging camera intended for indoor or outdoor
security applications while installed in a fixed location. The camera mounting must support up to 5.4
lbs (2.5 kg). Refer to
from FLIR Systems, Inc.
1.3.1
The FB-Series O camera can be installed with an analog or digital (IP) video output (or both). Analog
video requires a connection to a video monitor or an analog video matrix switch. The camera can be
powered using Power over Ethernet (PoE) or with a conventional 24 Vac or 12 Vdc power supply. For
a PoE connection, an accessory PoE power supply (also called a PoE injector) is required if the
camera is not connected to a PoE switch. The maximum Ethernet cable run is 100 meters including
the PoE power supply. In installations using PoE power and IP video, only a single Ethernet cable to
the camera is required. The FB-Series O camera is a Powered Device compliant with the IEEE
802.3af-2003 standard.
In installations using analog video and conventional power, an RG59U coaxial cable and a power
cable are installed. It is recommended an Ethernet cable should also be installed for camera
configuration and troubleshooting. The FB-Series O camera does not support serial communications.
