Connecting the Camera

Note
It is recommended to connect the camera to your NVR and test the PTZ controls before
permanent installation. For instructions on how to setup PTZ controls, see 6 Controlling
the PTZ Camera with an NVR, page 18.

4.1 Option 1: Connecting the Camera to an NVR

1. Connect the PoE+ connector on the camera cable to the included Ether-
net extension cable.
2. Connect the Ethernet extension cable to one of the PoE+ ports on the
back panel of your NVR.
Note
You can use up to a 300ft (91m) CAT5e Ethernet cable to connect the camera to your
NVR. The camera is compatible with LNR100 & LNR400 Series NVRs only.

4.2 Connecting Cameras to the Local Area Network (LAN)

For flexibility, you may also connect the camera to the same Local Area Net-
work (LAN) as the NVR. This is accomplished by connecting the camera to
the same router as the NVR. For these installations, an external PoE+ switch
(sold separately) or power adapter (included) must be used to provide power
to the camera. You also must add the camera on the NVR before it will show a
picture on the monitor or be recorded by the NVR.
What is PoE+?
PoE (Power over Ethernet) is a technology that allows Ethernet cables to carry
electrical power to connected devices. High-powered devices such as PTZ
cameras use PoE+ (also known as PoE class 4 or IEEE 802.3at), which pro-
vides more power to connected devices than standard PoE. Compatible
NVRs use integrated PoE+ ports to provide power and PTZ commands to the
camera, as well as video connection to the NVR. PoE+ ports will provide up to
