Overview
This chapter describes the Cisco Video Surveillance pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) IP cameras, and includes
the following topics:
• Introduction, page 1-1
• Package Contents, page 1-2
• PTZ IP Camera Physical Details, page 1-3
Introduction
The Cisco Video Surveillance PTZ IP cameras are primarily used for monitoring wide open outdoor
areas such as building entrances, airports, highways, and parking lots.
The dome cover protects the camera body against rain and dust. The wide temperature range allows the
camera to operate under extreme weather conditions.
The following PTZ IP cameras are available:
• Cisco Video Surveillance SD Outdoor 2830 PTZ IP Camera, NTSC
• Cisco Video Surveillance SD Outdoor 2835 PTZ IP Camera, PAL
• Cisco Video Surveillance HD Outdoor 6930 PTZ IP Camera
For installers, properly adjusting the focus of an HD IP camera can be difficult due to the image detail.
To make installation and adjustment easier, the PTZ IP camera incorporates built-in stepping motors that
the installer can use to remotely control the focal length and precisely adjust the camera focus.
For complete installation and tampering prevention, the PTZ IP camera also fits different conduits and
corrugated tubes sizes for cable installation.

Installing the Camera
This chapter provides information and instructions for installing the Cisco Video Surveillance PTZ IP
camera, and includes the following topics:
• Installation Guidelines, page 2-1
• Warnings Before Installation, page 2-2
• Installing the PTZ IP Camera, page 2-3
• Connecting to the Network, page 2-12
The installation procedures apply to the following PTZ IP cameras:
• Cisco Video Surveillance SD Outdoor PTZ IP Camera, NTSC (CIVS-IPC-2830)
• Cisco Video Surveillance SD Outdoor PTZ IP Camera, PAL (CIVS-IPC-2835)
• Cisco Video Surveillance HD Outdoor PTZ IP Camera (CIVS-IPC-6930)
Installation Guidelines
Before you begin the installation, review these guidelines:
• The PTZ IP camera requires a network cable and a connection to a standard 10/100BaseT router or
switch. To power the PTZ IP camera with Power over Ethernet (PoE), a switch must be 802.3af
compliant.
• If you are using the PTZ IP camera on a network connection that does not provide PoE, you must
use a third-party AC 24V power adapter.
• If you are using an external speaker, microphone, input device, output device, or pan/tilt control
device, you must configure additional settings after installing and performing the initial set up of the
PTZ IP camera before the external device can fully operate. For detailed information about these
settings, see the Cisco Video Surveillance PTZ IP Camera Configuration Guide.
• If you do not connect an external device (speaker, microphone, input, output, or pan/tilt control)
when you perform the following installation procedure, you can install any of these devices later.

Cabling Through Waterproof Connectors
Perform the following steps to install and connect an external power cable and I/O cables for external
devices:
Step 1 Disassemble the components of the waterproof connector into parts (A)–(E).
Step 2 Remove the plastic stopper from the bottom of the dome cap and keep the M20 hex nut.
Step 3 Depending on the number of wires, remove seals (C) from the rubber seal (B).
Step 4 Feed the power cable through the waterproof connector (E --> D --> B --> A). Be sure to feed enough
power cable length through the waterproof connector to connect the power cable to the GPIO block.
The recommended cable gauge is 1.2–1.8 mm.
Note There are 16 holes on the seal (B), and the widest holes with a crack on the side are specific
for power cables.

Step 5 Push the seal (B) into the housing (D).
Step 6 Insert the seals (C) into unused holes on the seal (B) to avoid moisture.
Step 7 Secure the sealing nut (E) and hex nut from the bottom of the camera tightly.
Connecting the Cables
Perform the following steps to install and connect the I/O wires and RJ45 Ethernet cable.
Caution Avoid touching the circuit boards to prevent damage by electrostatic discharge.
Note We recommend using 24AWG (0.51 mm) gauge cable.
Step 1 Use a small-size flat-blade screwdriver to secure I/O wires to the included terminal blocks.
Step 2 Drill a hole on the rubber seal plug and insert an Ethernet cable (without a connector) through the
opening.
Step 3 Strip about 1/2 inch (12 mm) of the sheath from the Ethernet cable.
Step 4 Use 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 5 Feed the Ethernet cable and I/O wires through the mounting bracket, the openings on the dome cap, and
to the interface section. Attach the rubber seal plug to dome cap for water proofing.
Step 6 Secure the included ground wire to the dome cap, pass it through the mount bracket, and connect the
other end to a grounded conduit later.
Preparing the Camera
Prior to mounting the camera to the wall or ceiling, attach the silica gel packets to the camera using these
steps.
Step 1 Remove the black dome cover of the camera.
Step 2 Turn the camera upside down.

Installing the PTZ IP Camera
Mounting the PTZ Camera
Note Before mounting the camera, install an SD, SDHC, or SDXC card if you prefer recording to local
storage.
Step 1 Select a rigid mounting location to prevent vibration to the camera, and attach the alignment sticker to
the wall.
Note The camera weighs 3.66kg.
Step 2 Drill four pilot holes (10mm in diameter and 4cm deep) into the wall, and hammer in threaded anchors.
Note Hammer the anchors with hex nuts on them, so the threaded poles do not get deformed. If
preferred, drill another hole for routing cables.
Step 3 Secure the wall mount bracket to wall using four sets of captive washers and nuts.
Step 4 Align the camera body with the top section.
a. Align the alignment mark on the camera with that on the interface section.
b. Push the camera up to match the top section.
Step 5 Rotate the camera clockwise until its alignment mark is aligned with the "C" mark.
Step 6 Use the included T25 stardriver to securely tighten the three anti-tamper screws from the top.
