Introduction

The Cisco Video Surveillance 3421V IP camera is an indoor, high definition, professional fixed 3" mini

dome IP camera with industry-leading image quality and processing power. The 1 megapixel (MP)

IP camera offers 720p HD resolution with superb image quality up to 30 frames per second (FPS) while

optimizing network usage with either H.264 or MJPEG compression. It can capture a much more

comprehensive area than a standard VGA model, significantly reducing the number of units required. It

is especially suitable for monitoring indoor areas or such as building entrances, retail spaces, or

applications requiring accurate identification.

Additionally, the metal vandal-resistant housing effectively provides robust protection from vandalism.

With other advanced features such as 802.3af compliant PoE, micro SD/SDHC card for local storage,

and e-PTZ functionality, the 3421V IP camera provides the most robust solution suitable for any

demanding indoor environment.

3Video output switch Switches between the following two video standards:

•NTSC 60Hz (left, towards the reset switch)—switches

camera operation to the National Television System

Committee (NTSC) standard.

•PAL 50Hz (right, away from the reset switch)—switches

camera operation to the Phase Alternating Line (PAL)

standard.

4Reset button Button that reboots the IP camera or resets it to a default state.

It can be used any time that the IP camera is on and can have

various effects, as described in the “Resetting the IP Camera”

section on page 4-3.

5Ground lug Used to electrically ground the IP camera. Connect to a

grounded conduit or a grounded metallic surface.

6General Purpose I/O Terminal

Block

General purpose input/output (GPIO) terminal block that is

used to connect an external digital input device. The GPIO

pinout is as follows:

7Ethernet 10/100 RJ45 plug Connects the IP camera to a 10/100BaseT router or switch.

8Power connector Connects to an optional external power supply (Cisco part

number CIVS-IPCA-PWR12V) when the network connection

does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE).

Note Use the included DC power cable to connect the

external power supply the IP camera power connector.

9Video out (green) Allows the connection of an optional Y cable or mini cable with

BNC connector. You can connect a video monitor to the mini

cable with BNC connector. Both cables are included in the

optional audio/video cables accessory kit can be purchased

from Cisco (Cisco part number CIVS-AVCABLE).

Camera Installation

This chapter provides information and instructions for installing the Cisco Video Surveillance 3421V

IP Camera, and includes the following topics:

•Installation Guidelines, page 2-1

•Warnings Before Installation, page 2-1

•Installing the IP Camera to a Ceiling or Wall, page 2-4

Installation Guidelines

This section describes how to install the IP camera. Before installing, review these guidelines:

•The IP camera requires a network cable and a connection to a standard 10/100BaseT router or

switch. To power the IP camera with Power over Ethernet (PoE), a switch must be 802.3af

compliant.

•If you are using the IP camera on a network connection that does not provide PoE, you must use a

Cisco 12 VDC power adapter (Cisco part number CIVS-PWRPAC-12V).

•If you are using an external input device, you must configure additional settings after installing and

performing the initial set up of the IP camera before the external device can fully operate. For

detailed information about these settings, see the Cisco Video Surveillance 3000 Series IP Camera

Configuration Guide.

•If you do not connect an external input device when you perform the following installation

procedure, you can install it later.

Warnings Before Installation

•Power off the IP camera as soon as smoke

or unusual odors are detected.

Contact your distributor in the event of this

happening.

•Keep the IP camera away from water. If the

IP camera becomes wet, power off

immediately.

Contact your distributor in the event of this

happening.

Chapter 2 Camera Installation

Installing the IP Camera to a Ceiling or Wall

To install the 3421V IP camera to a ceiling or wall using a vandal resistant (VR) enclosure, perform the

following steps.

Procedure

Step 1 Use the included screwdriver to loosen the four screws and remove the dome cover.

Step 2 Apply the included alignment sticker to the ceiling or wall.

Step 3 Using the circle marks on the sticker, drill four (4) pilot holes into the ceiling or wall. Then hammer the

included wall anchors into the holes.

Step 4 Attach the included ferrite core to the cable. Ensure that the ferrite core is attached approximately

2 inches (5 cm) away from the IP camera.

Note The 3421V IP Camera can be mounted with the cable routed through the ceiling/wall or from the side.

If you want to feed the cable through the ceiling/wall, drill a 3/4 in. (19 mm) cable hole in the large notch

on one end of the alignment sticker, and feed the cable through the hole.
