IPPWR1
IP Camera & Gigabit Ethernet Power Surge Protector

INSTALLATION

The IPPWR1 must be properly installed to insure maximum protection.

The function of the IPPWR1 is to allow a surge to be routed to ground

and to clamp the protected equipment inputs to a minimum voltage.

There are three key points to remember when installing the IPPWR1.

First provide a low impedance connection between the IPPWR1 and

your protected equipment. This is best done by keeping the

PROTECTED cable connection as short as possible, idealy 3 feet or

less.

Second, the system should use a single ground point. Connect the

grounding wire of the IPPWR1 to a single ground point. A single

ground point is a proper earth ground to which equipment grounds

are connected. Ideally the protected equipment should be isolated

from ground.

Finally, the UNPROTECTED cable should not be crossed with the

PROTECTED cable. Crossing cables could provide a path for surge

currents to bypass the IPPWR1 protection circuits.
