1000BaseT to 100BaseT or Ethernet interface may show errors.
Cabling with Power Adapter
1. Plug the barrel of the power cable from the power supply into the power jack.
2. Connect one end of an CAT 6 Ethernet cable (not supplied) to the unit's Ethernet port. The other end of the cable
should not be connected to another device until installation is complete.
Cabling with Gigabit Ethernet PoE
1. To power the device using Gigabit Ethernet PoE, you must use Gigabit PoE injector (ordered separately). Connect
one end of a CAT6 Ethernet cable (not supplied) to the unit's Ethernet port. Connect the other end to the Data and
Power Out port of the PoE Injector.
