Step 4: Install the New Ethernet Cable

1. Insert the new Ethernet cable through the sealing nut, claw, seal, and cable gland of the back

cover.

NOTES on using Ethernet cables: If the cable will be exposed to outdoor weather

conditions, it is recommended to use exterior-grade Ethernet cables (CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6);

ordinary Ethernet cables are only designed for indoor use and may deteriorate quickly when

exposed to outdoor elements. Exterior-grade Ethernet cables are waterproof and do not

require a conduit.

2. Attach the RJ-45 connector to the Ethernet cable. See How to Make an Ethernet Cable on

page 40.

3. Connect the RJ-45 connector to the Ethernet port inside the camera, then assemble the seal

and claw.
