To Install the Camera
General Guidelines
Try to place the camera in a position that a potential security threat will find it
difficult to avoid detection. A strategy which is often effective is to monitor
entrances and exits - after all, a security threat has to get in somewhere.
The internal components of the camera can be damaged by prolonged exposure to
direct sunlight. Don’t let direct sunlight into the lens!
The camera gets great images when it’s in the shade, looking at subjects that are
well lit. Don’t place the camera in bright light and have it facing shade or darkness.
Bright light sources to the sides of, or behind the subject will interfere with your
images.
The camera’s night vision will give well-exposed images if the area is dark. However,

if there’s a bright point source in the camera’s view (a streetlight, car headlights or
similar) then it might not engage night vision mode.
The camera’s casing is resistant to water, different weather conditions and
tampering. It would take an overwhelming event of this kind to damage the housing
of the camera (severe weather such as hurricanes or someone intentionally
damaging the lens would be enough). However, the cable and connector are
vulnerable and require protection.
Installation Diagram
 Ensure the camera is working correctly prior to permanent installation by temporarily
connecting the camera(s) and cable(s) to the NVR or computer.
Installation Diagram
 If you install the camera outside of your home, we highly recommend using waterproof
tape to wrap all the trail cables connection areas. Use as much as is necessary for the layer
of tape to protect the connections. This will help prevent water or moisture from leaking
into the cables which can cause the cable connections to degrade over time or stop
working.

Connecting the Camera
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to the camera.
 A 12V DC power adapter (NOT included) is only required if connecting the camera’s
Ethernet cable to a router or switch that does not support PoE.
2. Connect the end of the Ethernet cable to the NVR’s PoE ports. The camera may take up
to 1 minute to power up after being connected to the NVR.
OR
Connect the end of the Ethernet cable to a PoE router or switch on your network. See your
NVR instruction manual for details on connecting the camera to your NVR.
 Support Onvif NVRs, Onvif port in default: 8999

Cable Extension Options
Extend the Ethernet cable run for your camera up to 300ft. See table below. It is
recommended to use UL CMR approved cables.

You can use a RJ45 Coupler (not included) or switch (not included) to connect male ends
