2. Camera cabling
Before you connect cables, make sure that all cables and the power adapter are
placed in dry and well-waterproofed environments, such as waterproof boxes.
The purpose is to prevent moisture accumulation inside the camera and
moisture penetration into cables, which might lead to camera breakdown.
Follow the instructions below to complete the IP camera connection.
2.1 Power connection
For power connection, see section Function cable. Alternatively, users can
power the camera by PoE. See the section below for Ethernet cable connection.
2.2 Ethernet cable connection
For best transmission quality, cable length shall not exceed 100 metres.
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector of the camera.
Connect the other end of the cable to the network switch or PC.
NOTE: In some cases, an Ethernet crossover cable might be needed
when connecting the IP camera directly to the PC.
Check the status of the link indicator and the activity indicator LEDs. If the LEDs
are unlit, check the LAN connection.
A green link light indicates a good network connection.
An orange activity light flashes for network activity indication.

[9]
2.3 Waterproof cable connectors
Follow the instruction below to waterproof the connectors of the RJ-45 &
DC 12 V cable.
RJ-45 & DC 12 V cable
Step 1:
Connect the required devices to the RJ-45 &
DC 12 V cable and coat the joints with
silicone gel. There should be no gap
between the connectors and the cables.
Step 2:
Seal the spot indicated in the figure on the
right with silicone gel. Make sure there is no
gap between the cables and the hole;
otherwise, the waterproof function cannot be
guaranteed.
