Installing the Cisco Video Surveillance IP Camera
This section describes how to install the Cisco Video Surveillance IP camera. Before installing, review
these guidelines:
• The IP camera requires a network cable and a connection to a standard 10/100BaseT hub, router, or
switch. To power the IP camera with Power over Ethernet (PoE), a switch must be 802.3af
compliant.
• If you are using the IP camera on a network connection that does not provide PoE, you must use an
external 12 V power adapter.
• If you are using an external speaker, microphone, input device, output device, or control device, you
must configure additional settings after installing and performing the initial set up of the IP camera
before the external device can fully operate. For detailed information about these settings, see
Chapter 3, “Configuring and Managing the IP Camera.”
• If you do not connect an external device (speaker, microphone, analog video display, input device,
output device, or control device) when you perform the following installation procedure, you can
install any of these devices later.
Warning
Installation of the equipment must comply with local and national electrical codes.
