CT-5322F/CT-5642F User and Installation Guide63 Camera Installation and MountingThe physical installation of the camera is the first phase of making the unit operational. The goal is tophysically place the unit, connect it to other devices in the system, establish IP network connectivity, andconfigure the camera for operation.Caution:To avoid damage from overheating or unit failure, assure that there is sufficient temperatureregulation to support the unit’s requirements (cooling/heating). Operating temperature shouldbe kept in the range specified for the product (-40° to 60°C/-40° to 140°F), with no more than95% relative humidity, non-condensing).Attention:Afin d’éviter tout dommage dû à une surchauffe ou toute panne de l’unité, assurez-vous que latempérature est suffisante pour répondre aux temperatur de l’unité(refroidissement/chauffage). La température de fonctionnement doit être maintenue dans laplage de température spécifiée pour le produit (-40° à 60°C/-40° à 140°F), sans condensationd’humidité supérieur à 95%).3.1 PreparationRead the instructions in this chapter thoroughly before installing the camera. Following are additionalconsiderations for outdoor installation: Always use weatherproof equipment, such as boxes, receptacles, connectors, etc. For electrical wiring, use the properly rated sheathed cables for conditions to which the cablewill be exposed (for example, moisture, heat, UV, physical requirements, etc.). Plan ahead to determine where to install infrastructure weatherproof equipment. Wheneverpossible, ground components to an outdoor ground. Use best security practices to design and maintain secured camera access, communicationsinfrastructure, tamper-proof outdoor boxes, etc. To minimize the effects of EMI (electromagnetic interference) and RFI (radio frequencyinterference), consult your reseller.3.2 Items Required for Installation That Are Not SuppliedThe following items are required for installation, but are not included in the package: Power source (PoE+ switch, 12-24VDC or 24VAC power supply) Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable if using a PoE+ switch Cat 5 Ethernet cable for network connection without a PoE+ switch Tripod or mounting bracket for mounting the camera One #2 Phillips head screwdriver One open-end, 1-inch (25.4mm) wrench or adjustable wrench One 6-inch (152mm) scale or ruler Electric or manual torque screwdriver set to 10 inch-pounds (1.23 newton meters) Hex wrench RJ45 connector RJ45 crimping tool Coax cable Coax cable cutter/stripper BNC connector
