smooth image quality. The IP Mini Dome cameras offer quad streaming and can be used

Connections
Indoor Cameras
The camera is compatible with 12vDC and Power over Ethernet (PoE). Connect power to
the camera using the provided power connector lead or connect the camera to a PoE
power source. If you are connecting 12vDC power, verify the polarity of the power
connection. If you are using PoE, make sure the Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) is in
use in the network.
Check the status of the network connection by looking at the link indicator and activity
indicator LEDs. If the LEDs are not lit check your network connection. The green link LED
indicates a network connection and the orange activity LED flashes to indicate network
activity.
POE Power Source
PoE allows for the transmission of power and data via a single Ethernet cable. PoE
eliminates the need for multiple cables to support power and recording. Follow the
installation below to connect the camera to a PoE-enabled switch using an Ethernet cable.
