Antenna
Two antennas are included with the DCS-2100+.  These are screwed onto the
antenna connectors on the back panel to provide a connection with a wireless
network.
Ethernet Cable Connector
The Internet Camera’s back panel features an RJ-45 connector for connections
to 10Base-T Ethernet cabling or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling. This network
port supports the NWay protocol, allowing the Internet Camera to automatically
detect or negotiate the transmission speed of the network.
Reset Button
Reset will be initiated when the reset button is pressed once and held until the
Power LED flashes through its cycle twice.
A Factory reset is initiated when the reset button is pressed continuously for
5 seconds or when the Power LED changes from 
green
 
to
 red
 for 2 cycles.
(For example you will see the LED turn to 
red
 twice, release the reset button
when the LED turns 
red
 the second time). The Power LED will begin to
flash indicating that the Internet Camera’s settings are reverting back to the
factory settings, then turn back to 
green
.
The Ethernet cable included with the DCS-2100+ Internet Camera
is a Category 5  “straight through” cable.  This is the recommended
cable type when the camera is physically connected to a 100 Mbps
Fast Ethernet network hub or switch.
