2.3.3 Editing IP Cameras Connected to the PoE or the
Built-in Switch Interfaces
This section is applicable to DS-7600NI-SE/N(P), DS-7600NI-E1(E2)/N, DS-7600NI-E1(E2)/P and
DS-7700NI-E4/P models only.
As the adding camera steps for the built-in switch are the same with the ones for the PoE interfaces, we take
the instruction of connecting to the network cameras via the PoE interface as an example.
The PoE interfaces enable the NVR system to pass electrical power safely, along with data, on Ethernet cabling to
the connected network cameras.
For the NVR which supports the PoE function, it can connect to the network cameras directly via the PoE
interfaces. And if you disable the PoE interface, you can also connect to the online network cameras.
Example:
As for DS-7608NI-E2/8P 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.
Add Cameras for NVR Supporting PoE Function:
Before you start:
Connect the network cameras via the PoE interfaces.
Steps:
1. Enter the Camera Management interface.
