RJ45 connector
You can connect a LAN cable to this connector to control the
camera module from a host device to output image to a host
device. By using a PoE-compatible LAN cable and camera
module interface board or hub, you can supply power using the
LAN cable.
Note
For safety, do not connect the connector for peripheral device
wiring that might have excessive voltage to this port.

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 that supports 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.
