General Connection
HD WDR Pro
1. Connect the Network Camera's Ethernet cable (CAT5e) to a PoE Plus switch. A 30W PoE
output port alone can not drive the onboard heater, and hence if using the PoE switch alone,
the application does not apply in low-temperature condition. 30W PoE plus can only drive the
camera when it is working at a temperature higher than -5ºC.

When using a non-PoE switch
Use a High Power PoE power injector (separately purchased) capable of 60W output to connect
between the Network Camera and a non-PoE switch. Sufcient power is required for low tem-
perature conditions when the onboard heater is activated.

2. Connect the power wires to an AC 24V power adaptor (user-supplied). The AC 24V adapter
can drive the camera and the onboard heater.
You can connect both power sources for redundancy in power supply.
