tion on the terminal connector pins.
2. Optionally connect an active speaker and/or external microphone.
3. Connect the camera to the network using a shielded network cable.
4. Connect power, using one of the methods listed below:
• PoE (Power over Ethernet, Class 2). If available, this is automatically detected when the
network cable is connected.
• Connect the supplied indoor power supply to the power connector on the camera.

AXIS P3301/P3304
Assign an IP address
Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected
devices. If your network does not have a DHCP server the AXIS P3301/P3304 will use 192.168.0.90
as the default IP address.
If you would like to assign a static IP address, the recommended method in Windows is either AXIS
IP Utility or AXIS Camera Management. Depending on the number of cameras you wish to install,
use the method that best suits your purpose.
Both of these free applications are available on the Axis Network Video Product CD supplied with
this product, or they can be downloaded from www.axis.com/techsup
