IMPORTANT!
Use only the power supply that is included with the N6603 camera or a compatible power supply that
meets the following requirements: DC voltage of 12 V, current strength of 1 A.
4.2. Installation Recommendations
This section provides recommendations that should be observed when mounting and
installing the N6603.
Tips on camera placement:
This camera is designed for both indoor and outdoor surveillance. The operating
temperature is down to -65 and up to +50°С.
It is recommended to put the connectors inside a junction box (not supplied) to protect
them against environmental hazards.
Do not expose this camera to direct sunlight for a long period of time. Do not install it
near any heat resources.
Incorrect installation may cause undesirable “blind spots” that are not visible to the
security operator.
Do not install this camera near water sources.
Avoid electromagnetic interference.
When installing the camera, take notice of possibility of laying connecting cables.
Avoid unstable installation, which may cause vibration. This, in turn, may reduce motion
detection performance and image crispness.
Surveillance cameras should be installed so that they are inaccessible to unauthorized
persons and protected enough against damage and changing of viewing direction.
When installing the camera, you should clearly determine the viewing direction.
Tips on twisted pair cable installation:
In corridors, electric and feeble-current cables should be installed in different conduits
that are disposed on different walls.
Twisted pair and electric cables can be installed in the same conduit using different
sections of the cable that have solid longitudinal partitions with at least 0.25 h of fire
resistance, which are made of non-combustible material and should be positioned in
work areas at distance of 15 meters maximum if the electrical power does not exceed 5
kW.
Electric and feeble-current cables should be placed in parallel to each other at distance
of at least 50 mm in different conduits or different sections of conduit. If the electric field

Chapter 4. Installing the Camera and Connecting a Cable
N6603 Installation User Manual
13
strength from the electric cables exceeds 3 V/m, you should increase the distance
between the electric and feeble-current cables or reduce the electromagnetic noise.
Twisted pair and electric cables should cross each other at right angles.
Unshielded twisted pair cables should be located at distance of at least 125 mm from
fluorescent gas-discharge lamps or from other high-voltage discharge devices.
Unshielded twisted pair cables should be located at distance of at least 1.5 meters from
electromagnetic interference sources that produce electric field strength exceeding 3
V/m.
Switchboards with pinned unshielded twisted pair cables should be located at distance
of at least 3 meters from electromagnetic interference sources that produce electric field
strength exceeding 3 V/m.
Entire twisted pair cables should be arranged between the points of connection so the
cable run is as short as possible.
Minimum cable bending radius is four times the cable diameter (or 1 inch=2.5 cm) or it is
also acceptable to install the cable so the cable bending radius is 2 inches (5 cm).
Maximum length of the entire segment is 100 meters.
4.3. Installing the Camera
4.3.1. Attaching the Sunshield
If necessary, you can attach the sunshield to the camera. It is fastened with two screws,
which are included with this camera.

RJ-45 connectors and an RJ-45 crimping tool.
Assembling the pairs of wires in the correct order (see the table above) ensures data
transfer speed of 100 Mbps.
4.5. Connecting the Alarm Contacts
BEWARD N6603 IP camera has an alarm input and an alarm output, which can be used to
connect an external alarm device or a sensor.
Alarm input: use it to connect external sensors. An alarm is generated when the input
voltage reaches a certain value (specified in the camera parameters).
Alarm output: use it to connect alarm devices (e.g. a signal device). When an alarm
event occurs, it changes the output voltage to a certain value (specified in the camera
parameters).
NOTE:
If you use external sensors, be aware that the camera has logical I/O and exceeding the rated voltage and
current (max 30 W and 12 V) is PROHIBITED!
There are two I/O voltage levels for the N6603 IP camera:
High: voltage level is 12 V.
Low: voltage level is 0 V.
The camera’s relay triggers when the output voltage reaches a certain level. Depending on
the selected voltage level and when the input voltage reaches this level (DI-, DI+ contacts), the
relay triggers (closes or opens) and therefore the output voltage level changes (NO-, COM
contacts) providing the high or low output voltage level (specified in the camera parameters). The
relay wiring diagram is shown on the Picture 4.6.
