NOTICE! The camera can be supplied with voltage both from an external source and via

Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). The camera should not be supplied through both voltage sources

at once as this can irreparably damage the camera.

Check the power supply to the camera. Connect the camera to to a Gigabit Ethernet port on the PC either

directly or using switches. Please read the following notes before setting up.

Cabling

The data network and the camera network should be cabled separately. Therefore, it is recommend

connecting the cameras by a separate network card.

It is recommend to use Cat5e type cables.

The cable length of the individual segments must not exceed 100 m. A segment is a continuous cable

connection between two network devices (e.g. PC, camera, switch).

It is recommended to cable the network throughout at 1000 Mbit/s.

Network card

To ensure optimum performance of the network connection, you need to install the latest drivers for your

network card.

GigE network adapters for PCI slots are limited in its transfer rate to approximately 80-90 MByte/s.

It is recommended to set the "Receive Descriptors" in the network card settings to the maximum value.

It is recommended to set the "Jumbo Frames" (also: Jumbo Packet) in the network card settings to the

maximum value.

Note that the connection between the camera and the PC must continuously be able to transport jumbo

packets to ensure the transmission of the jumbo packets. Information on these settings is provided in the

manual supplied with the network adapter.
