Connecting The Camera; If The Distance Between The Nvr And Ip Camera Is More Than 100M - Orion PNVR204 4CH User Manual

Connecting the camera

You can connect a PoE-featuring IP camera to the rear [CAM1]~[CAM8], RJ45 port using the CAT5 10/100Mb Ethernet
cable without a separate power source.

If the IP camera provides the alarm I/O port or Audio I/O port, you can make alarm or audio connection. For
more details, refer to the user manual of the IP camera.

The Ethernet connection is effective within 100 meter in distance. Beyond that, you may encounter a data
loss or failure to connect to the camera. If you need to make cable connection of longer than 100 meters,
use a separate PoE extender for cable extension.

The total power consumption of the IP cameras should not exceed the rated power capacity of the 48V PoE
adaptor. Beyond that, the video may not be played properly or no video will be displayed at all. If this is the
case, use a separate (additional) power source for supplying power to the cameras.

Even if total power requirement meets PoE device's power capacity, a camera of more than 15W power
requirement per a port cannot be used.

Each camera's power consumption can be checked on the network map screen, and total power
consumption should consider camera's maximum possible consumption with optional accessories (such as IR
/ heater device).

For stable operation, a dedicated communication line is established for IP cameras in the same network. This
is why network router or hub connection is not allowed.

If the distance between the NVR and IP camera is more than 100m

You may extend the transfer range by connecting a switching hub or PoE device between the Ethernet port and IP
camera if desired distance is longer than 100m.
