illustrated.
When connecting network cables:
• When plugging or unplugging the network cable, hold the plug portion of the cable.
When unplugging, do not pull on the network cable but unplug while pressing down on
the lock.
• Never place strain of any kind on the network cable connection. It's designed to clip into
place to prevent slippage, but it won't support any weight and can be easily broken by a
sharp tug. Exercise caution.
• Ensure that cables are sheltered from moisture, weather and sunlight. The network
cable connection was designed and intended for indoor use with computer networking
- while it's ideal for handling the massive data loads that network cameras require, it's
not weatherproof.
• If you are installing the camera outside of your home, we highly recommend using
waterproof tape to wrap the cable connection area between the camera's Network
(LAN) port and the extension cable's Ethernet plug. Use as much as is necessary for the
layer of tape to protect the connection. This will help prevent water or moistuire from
leaking into the cable which can cause the network cable connection to degrade over
time or stop working.
