Configure network settings through the NVR interface and set up remote viewing via the network (RJ45). Install local storage (HDD) if required following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Recommendations

Use high-quality Cat5e or Cat6 cables for PoE connections, ensure adequate ventilation around the unit, and follow local regulations for storage and retention of recorded footage. For continuous 24/7 operation, install a compatible surveillance-grade hard drive and verify firmware is up to date.
