4. SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION
Basic connection examples are shown for use when creating a Network camera system. Refer to the Setting
Manual (PDF file) for representative connection examples.
4.1. Before Making Connections
4.1.1. About the PoE* switching hub
Because the N-VT2010 Network Video Transmitter, N-VR2010 Network Video Receiver, and N-CC2360
Network Color Camera are compatible with PoE Standards, power can be supplied to them using a single
network cable. This eliminates the necessity for preparing a separate power supply in each camera installation
location, and greatly improves installation freedom. (*PoE : Acronym for Power over Ethernet. This complies
with the IEEE802.3af standard and allows simultaneous transmission of both normal data and DC power
using a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX network.)
4.2. Basic Connection Examples
The connection of a basic system is shown below.
The analog CCTV system is comprised of conventional cameras and switchers.
When using a PoE-compatible hub, the power supply need not be connected to the N-VT2010 Network Video
Transmitter, N-VR2010 Network Video Receiver and N-CC2360 Network Color Camera.
When using a hub not supporting PoE, power must be independently supplied to each device. Connect AC
MAINS to N-DR2000 Network Video Recorder.
Connect 24V AC to the N-CC2564 Network Combination Dome Camera.

18. NETWORK VERIFICATION
Connections between two devices can be confirmed by means of a “ping” command, thereby allowing
confirmation of whether the device connected to a network is active or not.
Procedures to use Windows XP command prompt are described below.
1. Open a command prompt.
(Example) "Start Menu" "Run" Enter "cmd" in the name, then click on "OK."
2. Enter the device’s IP address after the “ping” command.
A response is received if the device is discovered.
(The figure shows a command prompt based on Windows XP.)
If there is no response, this means that the device’s address is not confirmed via a network. The following
causes can be considered for this:
The device is not correctly connected to the network.
Check the device for correct wiring.
The device is not correctly set on the network.
Check the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway.
