Installation

Warning: Installation of this product must only be carried out by a marine electronics
professional or competent person. Failure to observe these installation guidelines and
good electrical practices could result in fatal damage to the product, other on board
equipment and personal injury. Observe electrical codes and practices of the region in
which the device is being installed.

When installing on board, it is essential to observe electrical safety precautions associated with the
installation and operation of DC powered electronic equipment in and around water. Ensure the waterproof
integrity of the camera, cables and connection of the device are never breached or compromised. Always
power the device from an appropriately rated fuse board or distribution panel.

DC Power Supply (Optional)
The IP2 requires a 12V DC supply. Although the camera draws much less current during operation, allow for
a 2A peak surge during power up. Always use suitably rated cable to deliver power to the camera.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) (Standard)
As standard, power to the camera is delivered via the CAT5e STP ethernet connection, and injected into the
PoE junction box (supplied). The PoE junction box requires a 12VDC input. Although the camera draws
much less current during operation, allow for a 2A peak surge during power up. Always use suitably rated
cable to deliver power to the camera. Please note, the PoE junction box is not waterproof and must be
installed away from water, moisture and excessive heat sources. The IP2 can also be powered from a PoE
ethernet hub (not supplied).

Cabling
The IP2 is supplied as standard with a 5 meter, PUVC CAT5e STP waterproof cable. At one end is an IP68
rated waterproof RJ45 connector that plugs into the camera. The other end of the cable has intentionally
been left bare in order to reduce the size of the entry hole required into the side of the vessel.

The outside diameter of the cat 5 cable is 6mm. Once the cable has been routed through the side of the
vessel and into the boat it will be necessary to fit an STP RJ45 jack. A STP RJ45 connector is supplied.

Use STP CAT5e cable to connect the PoE injector to the server, computer or hub.
