Both the DCS-1000 Wired model and DCS-1000W Wired/Wireless model have input/output controls for interfacing with security systems. On the back of the Camera you will find an 8-position connector. This connector has 2 input triggers for security sensors and 2 output triggers for security alarms. sensors. Security sensors for input are available as Passive (low-current/low voltage) sensors or Active (powered) Because of power limitations of the DCS cameras and its compatibility with Power over Ethernet standards the sensor power requirement must be obeyed for proper operation.

Active components must be self-powered by an external power source.
