Installation Manual
Bosch Security Systems
When PoE is not used, the power cord (connected to the 24 VAC power source) is the main
device to disconnect power for all units.
Grounding:
- Connect outdoor equipment to the unit's inputs only after this unit has had its ground
terminal connected properly to a ground source.
- Disconnect the unit's input connectors from outdoor equipment before disconnecting the
grounding terminal.
- Follow proper safety precautions such as grounding for any outdoor device connected to this
unit.
U.S.A. models only - Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70, provides
information regarding proper grounding of the mount and supporting structure, size of
grounding conductors, location of discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
Video loss - Video loss is inherent to digital video recording; therefore, Bosch Security
Systems cannot be held liable for any damage that results from missing video information.
To minimize the risk of losing information, we recommend multiple, redundant recording
systems, and a procedure to back up all analog and digital information.

Notice!
Risk of water ingress
Securely seal all fittings and connection points between the device and all mounts to ensure a
liquid-tight seal. Failure to do so could allow water to enter the housing and damage the
device. Always use Teflon tape (user-supplied) and sealant (user-supplied) on connector
threads of any mount (sold separately by Bosch or user-supplied).
If a sealant is used, make sure that it is a neutral cure type. Sealants that release acetic acid
may harm electronics.
Use drip loops on the wiring outside the housing.
Always use Teflon tape (user-supplied) and sealant (user-supplied) on connector threads of
any mount (sold separately by Bosch or user-supplied).
!
Warning!
ROUTING OF EXTERNAL WIRING MUST BE DONE THROUGH A PERMANENTLY EARTHED
METAL CONDUIT.
i
Notice!
Always use a shielded twisted pair (STP) connection cable and a shielded RJ45 network cable
connector where the camera is used outdoors or the network cable is routed outdoors.
Always use shielded cables/connectors in demanding indoor electrical environments where
the network cable is located in parallel with electrical mains supply cables, or where large
inductive loads such as motors or contactors are near the camera or its cable.

Notice!
Bosch recommends the use of surge/lightning protection devices (sourced locally) to protect
network and power cables and the camera installation site. Refer to NFPA 780, Class 1 & 2,
UL96A, or the equivalent code appropriate for your country/region, and to local building
codes. Refer also to the installation instructions of each device (surge protector where the
cable enters the building, midspan, and camera).
