2.12 Preparing the Installation
Mounting the SecureFlex mount to a wall allows covering RJ45 wall outlets
(without cover) and also allows using a defined network end point.
When positioning the wall outlet, make sure
that the outlet lines up with the upper rim of
the mount later on (see figure below). If no
wall outlet is present, use a suitable exten-
sion or an adapter to connect the camera to
the network.
When installing an above-the-wall as-
sembly, breaking out one of the four
openings in the mount's foot with suitab-
le pliers will provide for properly guiding the
cable into the mount. When mounting the
camera in outdoor scenarios, you should
break out the opening that is pointing downwards. For additional information on
this topic, see section 2.14,
Mounting the Camera to Different Surfaces
.
2.12.1 Insect Protection of the Camera
MOBOTIX cameras feature a pre-installed insect protection (item8), which effec-
tively prevents small animals from entering
the camera. Make sure that the conden-
sation drain holes remain open. These
openings contain semi-permeable plugs,
which allow condensation to exit the came-
ra housing, but also prevent small animals
from entering the camera.
Never push any objects into the drain
holes as this may damage the plugs!
2.12.2 Connecting to the Network (Ethernet)
In order to connect to an Ethernet network, simply attach the pre-installed network
cable into the wall outlet or the extension. Continue by mounting the wall mount at
the camera location, as described in section 2.12,
Preparing the Installation
.
Never insert the pre-installed cable into
an ISDN wall outlet! In order to attach to
an ISDN network, see section 2.12.3,
Connecting Another Cable (ISDN/RS232)
on
how to install an additional cable for ISDN
connections.
