The CAT 5e Cable carries DC power from the Camera Power Supply to the camera and provides the network
connection for digital data communications to and from the camera. The cable supplied with the WiLife Indoor
Camera packages was specifically selected because it was small, flexible, and unobtrusive, in comparison to a
typical CAT 5e cable.
