Installation Tips
Before mounting the antennas, please read the below points.
- Use outdoor rated CAT5 shielded cable with a drain wire, and terminate to TIA-568A or TIA-568B with RJ45 shielded connectors.
- When mounting the antennas, ensure there is line of sight between each antenna, meaning you can see each antenna with no obstructions from where the access point is going to be mounted.
- The maximum angle on the antenna is 120 degrees. When aligning antennas ensure that they are within 120 degrees of each other.
How many cameras can I send over my antennas?
A common question we receive is, "How many cameras can I send over my antennas?".
The answer to this question varies depending on the distance between antennas, and their positioning. The product is rated at 450+ Mbps which is the best case scenario. To know how much data the antennas in your installation can support, it is best to mount them and login to the web interface and view the throughput information. This will tell you how much data you can send over the antennas, in your specific installation. Camera bit rate can be adjusted to suit the installation, depending on the antenna throughput.
There is multiple types of Wi-Fi antenna available for different installation distances. Please contact your sales representative for more information.

Initialise and Configure Cameras over Network
Some installations may require cameras to be added to the NVR over the network. This may be the case if the NVR doesn't have POE ports, or if a wireless bridge is involved in the installation. In this case the cameras need to be added to the NVR via a different method, see below for details.
Important Note
If this is a business installation, please make sure you consult with the Manager and/or IT department before installing any devices that will need to be connected to the network.
Installing a network device without approval and prior knowledge of how the network is setup, has the potential to cause critical devices to fail, bring down the network and even stop business' server/software from operating.
Please be advised the following instructions are only true for simple networks

Warning
When connecting cameras over the network, they must only connect to the NVR's LAN Port as shown in the above diagram.
Do not connect ANY Network Devices/Switches to the NVR POE Ports
Only Connect 1 IP Camera per channel of the NVR
Configuration via PC is required to address and initialise multiple cameras.
How to see check your IP Address and find available IP Addresses
Step 1 - CMD: Identify and Set an IP Address
If you are currently connected to a router or have internet access, that means a Router/Modem or Other Device is supplying your computer with an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway. This process is Automatic and is called DHCP.
Info
To initialise, configure and connect to a device the computer must be in the same IP Address range.
Two devices on the same network, cannot have the same IP Address. If two devices have the same IP Address, a conflict will occur and both devices will stop working correctly.
Each network is different, and will have a different IP addresses range.

Some installations may require cameras to be added to the NVR over the network. This may be the case if the NVR doesn't have POE ports, or if a wireless bridge is involved in the installation. In this case the cameras need to be added to the NVR via a different method, see below for details.
Important Note
If this is a business installation, please make sure you consult with the Manager and/or IT department before installing any devices that will need to be connected to the network.
Installing a network device without approval and prior knowledge of how the network is setup, has the potential to cause critical devices to fail, bring down the network and even stop business' server/software from operating.
Please be advised the following instructions are only true for simple networks

Warning
When connecting cameras over the network, they must only connect to the NVR's LAN Port as shown in the above diagram.

How to see check your IP Address and find available IP Addresses
Step 1 - CMD: Identify and Set an IP Address
If you are currently connected to a router or have internet access, that means a Router/Modem or Other Device is supplying your computer with an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway. This process is Automatic and is called DHCP.
Info
To initialise, configure and connect to a device the computer must be in the same IP Address range.
Two devices on the same network, cannot have the same IP Address. If two devices have the same IP Address, a conflict will occur and both devices will stop working correctly.
Each network is different, and will have a different IP addresses range.
