Connections
Connecting to the RJ-45
Connect a standard RJ-45 cable to the network port of the network camera. Usualy a
cross-over cable is used for directly connection to PC, while a direct cable is used for con-
nection to a hub. You can also use a router featuring PoE (Power over Ethernet) to supply
power to the camera.
Connecting Audio
Connect speaker to audio output line and external mic to audio input line.
Connecting Alarms
AI (Alarm In)
You can use external devices to signal the dome camera to react on events. Mechanical or
electrical switches can be wired to the AI (Alarm In) and G (Ground) connectors.
G (Ground)
Connect the ground side of the alarm input and/or alarm output to the G (Ground) connector.
AO (Alarm Out)
The network camera can activate external devices such as buzzers or lights. Connect the
device to the AO (Alarm Out) and G (Ground) connectors.
Connecting Test Monitor Out (CVBS)
Connect 3pin test video cable (Optional) to check test video.
Connecting the Power
Connect the power of 12VDC for the network camera. Connect the positive(+) pole to the
'+' position and the negative (-) pole to the '-' position for the DC power.
CAUTION: Be careful not to reverse the polarity when connecting the power cable. A
router featuring PoE (Power over Ethernet) can also be used to supply power to the cam-
era. For the power specifications, refer to the appendix, product specification. If PoE and
12 VDC are both applied, the camera will be supplied with power from PoE
