3 Connecting the Camera
NOTE
It is recommended to connect the camera to your NVR and test
the PTZ controls before permanent installation. For instructions on
how to set up PTZ controls, see 5 Controlling the PTZ Camera with
an NVR, page 18.
3.1 Option 1: Connecting the Camera to an NVR
1. Connect the PoE+ connector on the camera cable to the included
Ethernet extension cable.
2. Connect the Ethernet extension cable to one of the PoE+ ports
on the back panel of your NVR.
NOTE
• You can use up to a 300ft (91m) CAT5e Ethernet cable to con-
nect the camera to your NVR.
• The camera is Compatible with the LNR / NR / LNK Series
NVRs, excluding the LNR200 and LNR300 Series. For the
most up-to-date list of compatible recorders, please visit
lorextechnology.com/compatibility.

3 Connecting the Camera
3.2 Connecting Cameras to the Local Area Network (LAN)
For flexibility, you may also connect the camera to the same Local
Area Network (LAN) as the NVR. This is accomplished by connecting
the camera to the same router as the NVR. For these installations, an
external PoE+ switch (sold separately) or power adapter (included)
must be used to provide power to the camera. You also must add the
camera on the NVR before it will show a picture on the monitor or be
recorded by the NVR.

3 Connecting the Camera
What is PoE+?
PoE (Power over Ethernet) is a technology that allows Ethernet cables
to carry electrical power to connected devices. High-powered devices
such as PTZ cameras use PoE+ (also known as PoE class 4 or IEEE
802.3at), which provides more power to connected devices than
standard PoE. Compatible NVRs use integrated PoE+ ports to pro-
vide power and PTZ commands to the camera, as well as video con-
nection to the NVR. PoE+ ports will provide up to 30W to each
connected device, whereas standard PoE (class 3) ports only provide
up to 15W. In order to use this PoE+ rated camera without a power
adapter, you must connect it directly to a compatible NVR (Compati-
ble with the LNR / NR / LNK Series NVRs, excluding the LNR200 and
LNR300 Series) or a PoE+ switch on the same network as the NVR.
PoE+ switches are available for purchase on
lorextechnology.com (model #: ACCLPS241B (4–channel model)
or ACCLPS281B (8–channel model)).
Complete the following steps to connect the camera to the NVR over
the LAN.
