Installation Instructions

  1. Locate the network drop above the ceiling either being a male Ethernet end (service loop) or a biscuit jack. This will have been ran back to the POE switch. If the switch does not have POE, a POE injector will need to be installed at the network closet.
  2. Using the instructions included in the Axis T94A02L box, use the razor to cut a hole into the drop ceiling tile and assemble the holding bracket for the camera. Mount bracket to drop ceiling. If not using drop ceiling, use alternate instructions inside of box for mounting to a hard ceiling.

  3. Using the Push-pull connector and the female to female RJ45 ethernet coupler, connect the camera to the network drop. Ensure that you’ve ran this cable through the opening at the top of the camera mounting bracket.
  4. Run the Axis MultiCable C I/O cable through the top opening of the camera mounting bracket, connecting the end into the I/O connector on the camera.
  5. Cut 2 lengths of 22/2 cable long enough to go from MultiCable C I/O to the STM-1. One is for audio; the other is to power the STM-1.
  6. Strip the jacket and wire shielding about 1/4" to expose the wires. Connect the cable for power to the 6-port IO phoenix connector (Red to 2, Black to 1). Connect the cable for audio to the audio in connector (Red to +, Black to -).
  7. Place the camera into the ceiling and secure it to the bracket. Use the included safety cable to attach the camera to the bracket. Hide excess cable in the ceiling. Cover mounting hardware by snapping Axis plate into place around the dome.

Connecting the STM-1

  1. Cut a short piece of 22/2 cable (approx. 1 inch). Strip the jacket and from the cable and remove all contents keeping only the red cable. On both ends of the red cable, strip off a piece of the jacket (See picture).

  2. Connect one end of the 1 inch audio cable to the +PWR terminal and connect the other end into the +PHNTM terminal.

  3. Connect the cable ran for power to both PWR terminals (Red to +, Black to the other terminal) of the STM-1. Connect the other side to the IO phoenix connector (Red to 2, Black to 1).
  4. Connect the cable ran for audio to both HI-Z OUTPUT terminals (Red to +, Black to the other terminal) of the STM-1. Connect the other side to the audio in portion of the audio phoenix connector (Red to +, Black to –).

  5. Using the Velcro that comes with the STM-1, attach the STM-1 to the wall above drop ceiling hidden from sight.
  6. The microphone will be connected via the input terminals of the STM-1 (Red to +, Black to -, ground to the ground terminal).


(NOTE; If there are 2 cameras in the room, duplicate these steps to get to the 2nd camera. HI-Z output can feed 2 cameras, but no more. If there are 2 Shure MX202i Microphones, duplicate steps. An STM-1 can power and gather audio from 2 Shure 202i mics.)

Connecting and Mounting the Microphone

  1. Asses the drop ceiling to decide best mounting placement for the MX202i. Avoid tiles adjacent to HVAC or fire safety devices.
  2. Drill a hole into the center of the single gang plate using the ½” paddle bit (if not prefabricated).
  3. Measure center of the drop ceiling tile and drill a similar hole with the ½” paddle bit.
  4. Align the single gang plate to the location of the microphone on the drop ceiling tile using a pair of toggle bolts.

  5. Run the MX202i through the ½” hole in the ceiling tile and single gang plate with the rubber stopper to secure the microphone in place and plugging the ½” hole .
  6. Adjust the length of the cable of the microphone to a desirable length, hiding the remainder in the ceiling near the STM-1. Attach the windscreen to the MX202i.

  7. Run the XLR mini cable to the STM-1 location.
  8. Connect the connect the XLR mini to the 4 pin Male XLR adapter.
  9. Strip away a portion of the red and black cables inside the pigtail, revealing the copper wire inside.
    • The microphone will be connected via the input terminals of the STM-1 (Red to +, Black to -, ground to the ground terminal).
  10. Connect the female XLR to the Male XLR adapter
