Cameras should be connected with two cables:

  • 3G-SDI OUT: for the video signal via a BNC cable to the system.
  • LAN: for the control via IP protocol to the local network switch.

If using a multiCAM IP BOX, cameras should only be connected via LAN interface to the local network switch.

Every camera must also be electrically powered via its AC adapter DC IN or POE+.

With the multiCAM ALL-IN-ONE cable, one cable gathers the video signal, the control and the power.
