When mounting the CopperHead Camera Unit, always position the camera so that the
battery mounting plate at the rear of the camera is easy to access. Ensure that the camera is
well-supported and stable. If a battery is mounted remove it and put it to one side.

Installing the CopperHead Camera Unit typically involves one of the following three
configurations.

• CopperHead Pro Camera Unit with a battery (see

When the camera is powered locally at the camera position, either by a battery (as shown)
or by a local power source, tactical fiber is typically the preferred connection to Base
Station.
