  • Page 33: Selecting The Power Supply

    Caution It is not possible to use an ISDN NT and the S0 bus to supply power to the MOBOTIX D12. Using the ISDN split cable and MO- BOTIX PoE products (see section 2.17, Camera Accessories), the power can be injected into the ISDN data cable (8-wire cable re- quired).

  • Page 34: Using Uninterruptible Power Supplies (Ups)

    (e.g. switches, routers, PoE switches, etc.). Since MOBOTIX cameras do not require any heating even in the wintertime, the power consumption of 3 W is quite low. This in turn means that you can centralize the USP-protected power supply by injecting power into the network cables (max.

  • Page 35: Providing The Connections (Network/Isdn/Rs232)

    Once the camera position, the position of the cable outlets, and the method of power supply have been decided upon, the cabling should be installed. Before mounting the MOBOTIX D12, you should make sure that the network and ISDN connections have been properly tested, so that the proper functioning of the camera is guaranteed.
