POWER RJ-45:

The EZIM CCU receives 36 VDC on one Cat-5

cable (all 4-pair) from the CCU.

Be sure to mark the Power Cat-5 and avoid plugging it
into a place it doesn’t belong.


RS-232 IN:

Connect this RJ-45 with a Cat-5 cable to the RS-232 out of the RS-422 to RS-232 adapter.


RS-232 OUT:

For supporting Daisy chain control configurations.


Video RJ-45:

This RJ-45 sends the camera’s three (3) video signals on 3-pr (differential video).


Installation Basics:

The WallVIEW PRO H900 system was designed for installation on a vertical wall surface with
Cat-5 cable connectivity for Video, Power and Control signaling (three Cat-5 cables are required).
Installation is simplified in that no custom 8-Pin mini-din cables or expensive plenum coax cables
are needed and no power outlets are required near the camera bracket. All cabling is routed to
the head-end using Cat-5 cables using standard straight through RJ-45 connectors (568B
termination). “Pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors should be avoided like clichés..


Before Installing:

 Locate the camera mounting location paying close attention to camera viewing angles, lighting conditions,

possible line of site obstructions, and checking for in-wall obstructions where the camera is to be mounted.
Pick a mounting location that will optimize the performance of the camera.

Pre-wire all cabling as required, test and mark the cables POWER, VIDEO and CONTROL. Do
not guess at the cable’s function and try the “process of elimination method” and plug the
POWER cable into all the RJ-45 jacks to see which one cable powers the camera. In all
likelihood, this method will cause damage to your system and your warranty will be voided.



RS-232 Cabling:

 If the camera is connected to a third-party control system (such as AMX or Crestron), a DB-9 to RJ-45

EZCamera control adapter cable is included (P/N: 998-1001-232).

Please do not use “pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors.

The Vaddio Cat-5 wiring standard

uses pins 7 and 8 on both the video and the control Cat-5 cables. The pass-through connectors
have proven to provide unpleasantly insufficient connectivity for these important signals. They
are “ok” for voice and data, but not for video and control. Typically the trouble with pass-through
connectors has to do with shorts or non-connection on the outside pins (1, 2, 7 & 8).
