The ALI-AJ1 and ALI-AJ6 junction boxes are compatible with the camera. If using a junction box,
connectors between the camera drop cable and extension cables should be stored within the box.
When selecting a mounting location for the camera
• Make sure that there are no reflective surfaces near to the camera lens. IR light from the camera may
bounce back onto the lens causing reflections.
NOTE
• Determine how wiring is routed into the camera. The cable can be routed through conduit (a threaded
conduit adapter is provided), through the mounting surface and access hole in the mounting plate, or
through the side inlet.
The camera includes connectors for the following:
Ethernet (required): The Ethernet drop cable can connect to a LAN extension cable from a switch
•
or Network Video Recorder. The camera can be powered across the LAN using power over Ethernet
(PoE) injection. See the Specifications section at the end of this document for power requirements.
12 Vdc power input (optional if PoE powered, required if not): Refer to the Specifications section
•
of this document for voltage and current requirements. ALWAYS COMPLY WITH THE POLARITY
INDICATED IN THE PICTURE ABOVE.
Ground: A ground terminal is provided in the ALI-AJ1 and ALI-AJ6 junction boxes for attaching an
•
earth ground cable. Follow local electrical codes for proper grounding.
This camera includes the TVS 2000V lightning protection feature. To use this feature, refer to the
NOTE
TVS 2000V section at the end of this document for implementation guidelines.
1. Route a LAN extension cable from a network switch or Network Video Recorder (NVR) to where the
camera will be installed.
2. If the camera is not powered using PoE, route 12 Vdc power extension cables from an adequate
power source to the location where the camera will be installed.
3. You can attach an earth ground extension cable to the junction box. Route the cable to the location
of the junction box, if needed. Always follow local electrical codes when using an earth ground.
Do not apply power to the camera at this time. Before applying power to the camera, ensure that

the polarity is correct. An incorrect connection may cause a malfunction and can damage the
CAUTION
camera.
Step 2. Install the camera
An ALI-NS4002R camera can be mounted directly to a wall or ceiling, or with a junction box. The surface
should support at least four times the weight of the camera and junction box (if used). The video/power
drop cable from the camera can be routed either through mounting surface or through a cable channel in
the mounting base.
What you need
To install the camera, you will need:
12 Vdc power source. See Specifications for wattage requirement.
•
Tools and additional fasteners (may be required) for mounting the camera
•
Phillips #2 screwdriver
•
Video and power extension cable
•
Installing the camera with the ALI-AJ6 junction box
NOTE: Installation and usage of the ALI-AJ1 and ALI-AJ6 junction boxes is very similar.
When installing the camera with a junction box, install the box first. The ALI-AJ6 junction box is shown
below. It can be attached to a wall or ceiling. Ethernet and power extension cables can be routed in
through the opening in the back of the box or through the conduit coupling, and attached to the camera
drop cables inside the box.
