1 Before You Begin
To configure the Cisco PVC300 camera, you need at least one computer with
an active LAN IP connection. You will also need one of the following:
A PoE-enabled broadband Ethernet network router or switch (so you can
•
connect the camera to the intranet), or
• If your router or switch does not support PoE, use the included power
adaptor or a PoE power injector.
Once the hardware installation is complete, Cisco strongly recommends that
you run the Setup Wizard on the Setup CD-ROM for first-time software
installation of the camera. Advanced users can set up the Cisco PVC300
directly from the web interface of the camera.

C AUTION Do not pick up the Cisco PVC300 IP camera from the top
