2. Setup
The Vbestlife VBESThfwzie5uny camera offers flexible power options.

To begin setup, connect the camera to your network using an RJ45 Ethernet cable. If using PoE, connect the cable to a PoE-enabled switch. If using a 12V DC power supply, connect the power adapter to the C12V power input port and the Ethernet cable to your network router or switch.
Download the specified mobile application (refer to the included user manual for app details) to your smartphone. Follow the in-app instructions to add your camera and complete the network configuration. This typically involves scanning a QR code on the camera or manually entering its device ID.
