Camera Cabling
Please follow the instructions below for cable connections.
Power Connection
Please use a DC 12V / AC 24V power adaptor and plug it to the camera and the power outlet. Alternatively, users can
use an Ethernet cable and connect it to the RJ-45 connector of the camera and a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE)
switch.
NOTE: If PoE is used, make sure PSE is in use in the network.
Zero Downtime Power Switching (ZDT)
Please connect the camera to an AC 24V or PoE power source as the main power supply, and then connect DC 12V
as the secondary power supply. If the main power source fails, the camera will switch power input seamlessly to the
DC12V port until the main power source is restored.
Ethernet Cable Connection
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector of the camera, and plug the other end of the cable to
the network switch or PC.
NOTE: In some cases, Ethernet crossover cable might be needed when connecting the camera directly to the
PC.
NOTE: Check the status of the link indicator and the activity indicator LEDs. If the LEDs are unlit, please
check the LAN connection.
Green Link Light indicates good network connection.
Orange Activity Light flashes for network activity indication.
NOTE: The ITE is to be connected only to PoE networks without routing to the outside plant or equivalent
