Power
Intro
The Link 4K can be powered using the included power supply or over Ethernet. Please make sure all connections are secure when using either method.
When the camera is turned on, it will perform a short startup sequence going through its full range of motion. When the sequence is complete, the camera will stop and return to preset zero. Preset zero is set by default at the central position (home position), but you can save it to whatever position you like later on.
Power over Ethernet, or PoE, provides power and network connection. To power your camera over Ethernet, you will need a PoE+ 802.3at PoE switch. We recommend connecting your camera to the switch for peak performance using Cat 6 cabling or better. See the example of a power over Ethernet connection below.
Camera Startup
PTZOptics cameras perform a short startup sequence going through their full range of motion when powered on. (Stationary cameras or box cameras will also perform a startup sequence, going through their full zoom range.)
When the sequence is complete, the camera will stop and return to preset zero. Preset zero is set by default at the central position (home position), but you can save it to whatever position you like later on.

Power over Ethernet
Power over Ethernet, or PoE, provides power and network connection. To power your PTZOptics device over Ethernet, you will need a PoE switch. For peak performance we recommend using Cat 6 cabling or better. Below you can see a few common examples of power over Ethernet setups.
