RJ45 LAN Ethernet Connector Details
The RJ45 LAN connector has two LEDs for network status conditions.
The LED color codes are as follows.
Network Connection Network Activity
Green 100Mbps Off no network activity
Orange 1000Mbps Yellow typically blinking – active
Network Connection Network Activity
The Genie LAN connector is a standard Ethernet socket. Use CAT5e or CAT6 certified Ethernet cables. CAT5e
cable is rated for 100 MHz spectral bandwidth but CAT6 cable is rated for a 200 MHz spectral bandwidth with less
signal attenuation, therefore strongly recommended for long connection lengths.
The interconnection Ethernet cable can be either Straight Through or Crossover cable type. The Gigabit Ethernet
standard for devices defines that they will auto-negotiate send and receive channels, eliminating the need for users
to use a specific Ethernet cable type.
Camera Status LED
The Genie has one multicolor LED to provide a simple visible indication of the operational status of the camera.
When more than one condition is active, the LED color indicates the condition with the highest priority. The
following table summarizes the LED states and corresponding camera status.
