1.Introduction
Superb Full HD Quality for Professional Surveillance
The ICA-3250V, 25 meters IR / Vari-Focal Outdoor PoE IP Camera, supports the highest video
compression – H.264, which provides small video size and save you lots of bandwidth usage. The new
video compression is the best solution for Internet video transmission.
Dual Streaming / Multi Profiles
The Multi-Profile function enables the ICA-3250V to generate H.264 / MPEG-4 / M-JPEG streaming
simultaneously to differentiate users in different resolutions. This state-of-the-art design is
considerable to fit in various network environments. The ICA-3250V provides 2-Way audio function for
surveillance. It can remotely talk to anyone at the ICA-3250V site with additional speaker connected to
the camera.
PoE Support Enables Installation Anywhere and IP-66 protection for outdoor application
Compliant with IEEE 802.3af PoE interface, the ICA-3250V can be located in places where there are
no power outlets. Through Power over Ethernet function and with UPS installed in the network center,
the administrators are fearless of any power breakdown.
Vari-Focal IR Lens
With water-proof & Vari-Focal IR lens, the ICA-3250V meet various demand of installations, for
instance, traffic monitoring on two more lanes or focus on one specified lane. The IR function makes
the monitoring 24/7 both in day and night.
Day & Night Operations
The ICA-3250V features zero-lux illumination. Its 35 IR illuminators built around the lens bring the
clearest vision at night. Via the new LED technology, the illuminator ensures high-quality monochrome
images in complete darkness up to 25 meters. With the aluminum rugged all-weather waterproof
housing, the ICA-3250V performs reliable operation in any environment. It can work with the PLANET
Cam Viewer 3 Lite/Pro Management software and Network Video Recorder products for various field
demands in surveillance network.

2.3 Hardware Installation
2.3.1 Physical Installation
1. Connect an Ethernet cable
Connect the LAN cable on the camera to the network device (hub or switch).
NOTE: If there has an IEEE802.3af PoE switch in your network, you can connect the
camera LAN cable to this PoE switch to obtain power. The power adapter is
unnecessary when Internet camera is connected to a PoE switch.
2. Attach the power supply
Plug in power adapter and connect to power source. After power on, the camera will start to
operate.
NOTE: 1. Only use the power adapter supplied with Internet camera Otherwise, the
product may be damaged.
2. The power adapter is unnecessary when Internet camera is connected to a
PoE switch. Otherwise, the product may be damaged when Internet camera is
connected to a PoE switch and power adapter simultaneously.
3. Attach BNC connector
Connect the video BNC connector to a monitor set if necessary check camera viewing angle and
focus.
4. Attach Speaker to camera (option)
If user needs not only video stream but also audio stream, then the speaker should be attached to
camera.

User’s Manual of ICA-3250V
5. PoE (Power over Ethernet)
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that integrates power into a standard LAN infrastructure.
It enables power to be provided to the network device, such as an IP phone or a network camera,
using the same cable as that used for network connection. It eliminates the need for power outlets
at the camera locations and enables easier application of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to
ensure 24 hours a day, 7 days a week operation.
