Reusing an old box?
Turn off the breaker and test that the wires are dead. Remove or cap the old wiring, or call an electrician. Never leave live wires in with your Ethernet cable.
Install steps
- Pull the cable through the box. Bring the Ethernet cable out the front of the box, with a few inches of slack.
- Screw the plate to the box. Feed the cable through the centre hole. Fasten the plate with the 2 included screws, using the holes that line up with your box.
- Attach the camera base. Screw the camera's base or bracket to the plate, using the screws that came with the camera.
- Plug in and aim. Plug in the cable and tuck the slack into the box. Twist the Turret onto its base, or fit the Bullet onto its base, then aim.
