Information about the monitoring system
The BERGHOCH monitoring system works digitally with BERGHOCH IP network cameras.
The cameras are supplied with power via the network cable. There are no additional power
cables to the camera to be placed.
The cables
The supplied cables for the cameras are 30m long. It is not possible to extend the cable with
an adapter.
We recommend to buy a new cable in the appropriate size. These are standard network
cables that you can buy at the lowest price on the Internet.
Network cables come in different categories. From 30m to 60m you need CAT 6 network
cable.
From 60m to max. 100m you need CAT 7.
We recommend to test the cable before laying, as there are different qualities between manu-
facturers.
When laying flush-mounted, the purchase of network cable on a roll is recommended.
The rolls are available as installation cables in various lengths.
Connection to the switch
It is possible to use several POE network switches in one system.
Use at least CAT 6 network cable and from 60m to max. 100m CAT 7 network cable to connect
the POE network switches.
Before you install the system permanently, we recommend that you first set up the system on
a table. This gives you the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the technology and to
clarify any questions before the final installation.
Tips for building

Construction 3
For the first setup, the HD DVR recorder must be connected to an external monitor or TV. The
connection is made via the HDMI or VGA connection.
The enclosed computer mouse can be connected at the front or the back to a USB port.
After that, the power adapter is connected to the HD DVR and then plugged into the power
outlet.

Connect cameras
The cameras have, depending on the model, a built-in or attached to the camera POE voltage
converter. The POE voltage converter provides the power from the network cable in 12V.

IMPORTANT NOTICE about the mountain-top POE system
BERGHOCH IP surveillance cameras are only compatible with BERGHOCH POE network swit-
ches (24V).
You can not use the cameras with standard POE network switches.
These work with up to 52 volts and destroy the electronics of the camera.
This would result in the loss of the warranty.

The POE network switch does not have to be near the HDDVR device and can be set up, for
example, in another room or building.
Each BERGHOCH system has a 1m network cable per switch. For longer distances use CAT 6
network cables and for distances from 60 to 100m CAT 7 network cable.
We recommend to test the cable before laying, as there may be quality differences between
the manufacturers.

Exactly this is how it is
with several POE switches.

Construction8
Supply multiple switches with power
The use of POE network switches makes cabling easier and there is no need to have a power
outlet with each camera.
A maximum of two POE network switches can be connected in series, otherwise the data rate
is insufficient.
If you want to connect a POE switch to a second one, do not use the "UPLINK" port. (see
picture below)
We recommend that you test the configuration on a desk before you install it, because depen-
ding on the length and quality of the network cables, the power can be reduced and may not
be enough to supply enough power to all the cameras.
A maximum of 8 cameras can be supplied with one power supply.

Optimization of the HD DVR
If you see any jerkiness or black images in the preview of the HD DVR or in the Mobile APP,
you can adjust the "secondary data stream".
Go to the menu item Main menu> System> Encode.
In the right column (side data) set the resolution from "D1" to "CIF" (for 4MP: from "720P" to
"D1") and the BpS from 25 to 7.
Repeat the step for all affected channels.
Fluidity picture
If there are fragments or parts missing in the recordings, the encoding can be changed.
Go to the menu item Main menu> System> Digital> Digital channels.
Select the channel and set the coding from "Medium" to "Liquid 4".
