1. Purpose
TFortis SG-Cam is a lightning protection device designed to protect
cameras through the Ethernet port from strong interferences induced by
powerful lightning discharges.
It is recommended to use TFortis SG-Cam in conjunction with a lightning
protection device for TFortis SG-Switches .

Operation in a wide range of temperatures (from -55°C to 80°C).
The camera cable is located inside the lightning protection housing
A bracket for mounting on the pole or on the wall
Supports Fast/Gigabit Ethernet
Supports PoE/PoE+ (IEEE802.3af/at), including PoE 60W.
Convenient visual control of the integrity of components

2. Description
Figure 2-1. Appearance of TFortis SG-Cam
SG-Cam device has a metal enclosure protected from dust and moisture
according to IP67 . The device has a cable gland with a rubber sleeve for
three cables:
Ethernet cable from the switch,
Ethernet cable of the video camera
grounding cable.
There is enough space inside SG-Cam to accommodate the excess cable
coming from the video camera (Figure 2-2).
Application of a single large cable gland with a dedicated rubber sleeve
allows the RJ45 socket of the camera to be inserted into the lightning
protection device without cutting off the camera socket, thus retaining the
warranty of the camera manufacturer. Instruction for connection is available
in the Installation section of this document.

4. Operating conditions
TFortis SG-Cam is designed for 24/7 outdoor operation at the ambient
temperatures from minus 55C to plus 80C.
It is recommended to check the integrity of lightning protection device at
the end of the storm season and immediately after the storm.
5. Installation
5.1. Installation on the wall or pole
Use M5 bolts from the supply kit to screw the brackets to the device
housing (Figure 5-1).
Figure 5-1. Brackets
Install the device at the minimum possible distance from the video camera.
Use bandage tape to fix the device on the pole. For wall mounting, use a
special fastener (not included in the scope of supply).
