For mixed systems consisting of Vicon Vantage and MX T-Series cameras, see Vantage and legacy cameras system diagrams.
With a single switch to connect up to 12 Vantage cameras
With two switches to connect between 13 and 24 Vantage cameras
A small Vantage system showing how Vantage cameras, optional Vue video cameras and an optional Lock can be connected to a single Gigabit PoE+ switch with 10 GbE uplink.
A medium-sized system showing how a Lock unit can be connected to a system that includes two switches
Note |
The following is an alternative configuration for a Vantage system with a Lock.
A medium-sized system showing how two Lock units can be connected to a system that includes two switches
Note |
A medium-sized system showing how one reference video camera can be connected to a system that includes two switches
A system showing how reference video cameras can be connected to a system that includes one or more Lock units
Note |
A larger-sized system showing interconnection of three or more switches and other devices. Further 26-port PoE switches attach to spare 2.5 GBase-T PoE ports on the Gigabit PoE+ switch with 10 GbE uplink.
Note |
A very large system showing interconnection of four or more switches and four or more Vue video cameras. You can connect up to eight Vue video cameras to the Gigabit PoE+ switch.
To add a fifth PoE+ switch, use one of the spare 1G ports.
