Connecting Cameras over the Local Network
Connecting Cameras over the Local Network
You may also connect IP cameras to the same Local Area Network (LAN) as the NVR. This
is accomplished by connected the cameras to the same router as the NVR. This type of
installation is necessary to connect more than 8 cameras to 16-channel models, since they
only have 8 PoE ports available to connect cameras directly to the NVR.
For these installations, an external PoE switch (sold sep
arately) or 12V DC power adapter
(not included) must be used to provide power to each IP camera. You also must add the
cameras on the NVR before they will show a picture on the monitor or be recorded by the
NVR. Follow the steps below to connect the cameras to the NVR over the LAN.
To connect cameras to your local network:
1 A. Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN port*
on an external PoE switch (Lorex model:
ACCLPS281B, sold separately) to your router using a CAT5e or higher Ethernet cable.
Connect the power cable to the PoE swtich and to a power outlet or surge protector.
B. Connect the
IP cameras to ports 1~8* on the PoE switch using the Ethernet extension
cables. The PoE switch will provide power and video transmission the same way your NVR
does.
