5. Camera Hardware Description
Figure 5-1 CC5MPX Connector Layout
5.1 Ethernet RJ-45 Connection
The RJ45 connector on the camera is meant to interface the CC5MPX with
either a network router, cellular modem, or directly to a laptop.
If a permanent Ethernet connection is not required for an outdoor
environment, then the protective cap must be securely attached to the
Ethernet connector to provide an environmental seal.
When the protective cap is removed a standard cable with an RJ45
connector can be used to connect the camera to another device in an indoor
environment or temporarily outdoors if weather permits.
If a permanent Ethernet connection is required outdoors or if a connection
is required in wet or harsh locations, the Environmentally Rated Ethernet
cable must be used.
The maximum cable length for the Ethernet cable is 70 metres (230’).
The CC5MPX does not support the PakBus communication
protocol over Ethernet.
5.2 Power I/O Connection
Connection to the Power I/O connector is necessary for camera operation
and it is the only means to supply power to the camera. The connector that
connects to the Power I/O connector provides a weather tight connection
and has an IP67 environmental rating when properly connected.
