•Overview, page 1-1
•Physical Description, page 1-2
•Hardware Installation, page 1-4
•LED Definitions, page 1-15

Overview
The Cisco Video Surveillance 8020 (indoor) and 8030 (indoor/outdoor) IP Cameras are high-definition,
full-functioned video endpoints with industry-leading image quality and processing power. The cameras
are capable of 5MP resolution at 30 frames per second (fps) while optimizing network usage with H.264,
H.265, or MJPEG compression. Contact closures and two-way audio allow integration with
microphones, speakers, and access control systems. With their open, standards-based design, the
cameras provide ideal platforms for integration and operation as independent devices or as part of a
Cisco video surveillance network.
Key features and benefits of the Cisco Video Surveillance cameras include:
•True high-definition video—The cameras stream crisp and clear 5MP video at 30 fps while
maintaining low network bandwidth.
•Streaming—The cameras can stream H.264, H.265, and MJPEG video simultaneously. Each video
stream can be configured with individual resolution, quality, and frame-rate settings.
•Day/night operation—The cameras provide true day/night functionality, and include an infrared (IR)
filter that automatically switches to night mode in low-light scenes. This function can be set to
manual, automatic, or scheduled control.
•Flexible power option—The cameras support Power over Ethernet (PoE) 802.3af Class 0 for 8020
models, 802.3at Class 4 for 8030 models, and 12 VDC for both models.
•Mounting options—The cameras can be installed to either a ceiling or wall.

Physical Description
•Motion Detection and Event notification—The cameras can examine designated areas for activity
and notify users or other applications when they detect activity that exceeds a predefined sensitivity
and threshold. The cameras also provide one digital input and one digital output that can be used to
initiate specific actions when an alarm is detected.

Hardware Installation
The following sections describe how to install your camera:
•Cisco Video Surveillance 8020 IP Camera Hardware Installation, page 1-4
•Cisco Video Surveillance 8030 IP Camera Hardware Installation, page 1-8
Cisco Video Surveillance 8020 IP Camera Hardware Installation
To perform the hardware installation of the Cisco Video Surveillance 8020 IP Camera, follow these
steps:
Step 1 Make a note of the MAC address of the camera.
The MAC address is printed on the label that is attached to the camera.
Step 2 Remove the dome cover by pressing the release button.

Step 3 The camera comes with a PIR sensor. Plan your installation position so that the PIR can cover the area
of your interest where the intrusion may occur. The rated detection distance is 5 meters.
Step 4 Attach the alignment sticker to a preferred location. Drill holes on the wall or ceiling to install the plastic
anchor and secure the camera using the included screws.
If preferred, drill one routing hole.

Hardware Installation
Step 5 If applicable, connect DI/DO wires, 12V DC power, or audio wires to the terminal block.

Hardware Installation
Here is the DI/DO Diagram:
•The DO+ pin provides 5V output voltage, and the max. load is 50mA.
•The max. voltage for DO- pins is 80VDC (External power). In order to control AC devices, the above
diagram can be taken in consideration. The diagram uses a relay to control the ON/OFF condition
of the AC device.
•An external relay can be triggered by using DO+ or by an external power source, depending on the
type of relay you use.
•In case of using an individual relay (instead of using a relay module), for protection against voltage
or current spikes, a transient voltage suppression diode must be connected in parallel with the
inductive load.
Step 6 Adjust the shooting direction by turning and orienting the lens module. Use a Phillips screwdriver to
loosen the retention screws on the sides.

Cisco Video Surveillance 8030 IP Camera Hardware Installation
To perform the hardware installation of the Cisco Video Surveillance 8030 IP Camera, follow these
steps:
Step 1 Make a note of the MAC address of the camera.
The MAC address is printed on the label that is attached to the camera.
Step 2 Use the included T8 wrench to remove the dome cover. If local recording is preferred, install an SD card.

Step 3 Loosen and remove the waterproof connectors.
Step 4 Insert an Ethernet cable through the cable gland, and the rubber seal.
Step 5 Remove part of cable sheath.
Step 6 You will need an RJ45 crimping tool to attach the Ethernet wires to a connector. When done, connect the
cable to the camera’s Ethernet RJ45 socket.
Step 7 If applicable, connect DI/DO wires, 12V DC power, or audio wires to the terminal block.

Step 8 Attach the included alignment sticker to a preferred location. Drill holes for mounting screws and if
preferred, drill one or two routing holes.
Step 9 When fastening the screws, do not completely tighten the screws. Pass cables through the routing holes,
and then mount the camera by passing the screw heads through the keyhole slots. Turn the camera
counter-clock wise, and then fasten the screws.

Step 10 If you do not need to route your cables through the side opening, you can use the double-sided tape to
attach a plastic stopper to the opening on the side of the camera.
