Figure 4.1: The camera features a professional-grade waterproof wiring port. Ensure the network cable is securely connected with the waterproof rubber ring to achieve IP67 waterproof level. The camera can also be powered by a DC12V power supply if PoE is not used.
4.2 Network Connection (PoE System)
The OOSSXX camera utilizes Power over Ethernet (PoE) for simplified installation, allowing both power and data transmission through a single Ethernet cable.
- Connect Camera to NVR: Connect one end of the provided 60-foot network cable to the PoE port on the camera. Connect the other end to a PoE LAN port on your Network Video Recorder (NVR).
- Connect NVR to Router: Connect the NVR's WAN port to your internet router using another Ethernet cable for remote access and online features.
- Power On: Ensure the NVR is powered on. The camera will receive power directly from the NVR via the PoE connection.
