2.3.3 Editing IP cameras connected to the PoE interfaces
(Only for NVR-5816P8/7632P8 series NVR)
The PoE interfaces enables the NVR system to pass electrical power safely, along with data, on Ethernet cabling to
the connected network cameras.
The NVR-5816P8/7632P8 series NVR provides 8 PoE interfaces which can connect to 8 network cameras directly;
and if you disable the PoE interface, you can also connect to the online network cameras. And the PoE interface
supports the Plug-and-Play function.
Example:
As for 7608 NVR, when you want to connect 2 online cameras and connect 6 network cameras via PoE interfaces,
you must disable 2 PoE interfaces in the Edit IP Camera menu.

parameters of the camera can t be edited. The IP address of the camera can only be edited in the
