Adequate waterproof treatment is required for the cables when installing the camera with cables exposed. The camera body is waterproof, but the cable ends are not waterproof. Be sure to use the waterproof tape provided with the camera at the points where the cables are connected and apply waterproof treatment in the following procedure. Failure to observe this or use of a tape other than the provided waterproof tape (such as a vinyl tape) may cause water leakage resulting in malfunction.

Separately apply waterproof treatment to the network cable and other cables as shown in the illustration below.
