Introduction Congratulations on your decision to purchase this varifocal* Swann HD IP camera! Whether you’ve chosen the standard case or the dome form factor, this is an excellent addition to your Swann NVR monitoring solution. IMPORTANT: This camera is intended for use with a Full HD-capable Swann NVR, such as the NVR-7200/7250 series.
This means you will not have to connect this port when the camera is directly connected to a Swann NVR supporting PoE (such as the NVR-7200 series). If you are connecting the camera to your NVR via additional network hardware such as switches and routers that do not support PoE then you can power the camera using this DC 12V input.
Cable Management When connecting your cables: 1. 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 easily be broken by a sharp tug. Exercise caution. 2.
