BNC to RCA Adapter (Optional)
To Camera: To Monitor/DVR:
Male Power
BNC
Connect the BNC and power
connectors to the camera
Female Power
Connect the BNC connector to
the video input of the monitor /

power connector to a power
adapter. See Setup Diagram
below for details.
Setup Diagram
ATTENTION - This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When
the camera changes between Day/Night viewing modes, an audible clicking
noise may be heard from the camera. This clicking is normal, and indicates
that the camera filter is working.
1. Twist the ring to tighten/
loosen the stand connection
and adjust the camera’s
horizontal position.
2. Loosen the screw near the stand
and adjust the camera’s vertical
position.
3. If needed, loosen the screws
(2x) near the camera and
twist the camera head on the
mounting stand.
Before installing the camera:
• Decide whether to run the
cables through the wall /
ceiling (drilling required)
or along the wall / celing.
• If you run the cables along
the wall / ceiling, you
must run the cable through
the cable notch on the
base. This will keep the
camera base flush to the wall / ceiling when mounted.
To install the camera:
1. Set the camera in the desired mounting
position and mark holes for the screws.
Installing the Camera Connecting the Camera Cable Extension Options
Extend the cable run for your camera up to 300ft or more depending
on the cable type used. See table below:
Option Cable Type Max Cable
Run Distance
Max # of
Extensions
1 Regular BNC
(supplied with camera)
180ft / 55m 3
2 ‘RG59’ or ‘Coax’ or ‘Coaxial
BNC’
(sold seperately)
300ft / 92m 5
3 Lorex Universal Cable
(sold seperately)
300ft / 92m 3
Notes:
1. For optimal performance, consider using option 2 or 3. It is best to use the
same cable type for the entire distance.
2. Cable run recommendation based on typical camera power consumption
(up to 500mA). For specialty cameras with higher current consumption,
maximum cable run may be reduced. Consider providing power to the
camera at the camera side, rather then at the end of the extension cable.
3. Indicators that your cable run may be too long:
• Video is permanently black & white (even during day time)
• Video is distorted
ATTENTION - Test all connections and ensure the camera is working
correctly prior to permanent installation by temporarily connecting the
camera(s) and cable(s) to the viewing / recording solution.
