How to Connect the ADC-VC726 Camera to the Internet

The ADC-VC726 security camera connects to the Internet using an Ethernet cable. When Power over Ethernet (PoE) is used, both power and data are delivered through a single Ethernet cable via a PoE-compatible networking device.

Ethernet Connection Options

The ADC-VC726 can be powered and connected in two different ways depending on your setup:

• With PoE: Use the Ethernet port for both power and data. This is the most efficient option. For details, see How Power-over-Ethernet Works with Alarm.com Video Devices.
• Without PoE: Use an Ethernet cable for data and connect a separate AC power adapter.

Important Notes

• If PoE is unavailable, an AC adapter must be purchased separately.
• Compatible AC adapter: ADC-VACC-PWR-VC101 (available on the Alarm.com Partner Portal).

Available Ports

• Ethernet Port: Provides power (via PoE) and data connection.
• 2.1 mm DC Port: Accepts AC power when PoE is not used.

Wireless Capabilities

The ADC-VC726 is a hardwired-only device and does not support Wi-Fi directly. However, Wi-Fi functionality can be added using the ADC-W110 PoE-to-Wi-Fi Bridge, which converts a PoE connection into a wireless signal.

Troubleshooting Tips

• If the camera is not powering on, check that your switch or injector is PoE-compatible.
• When using an AC adapter, confirm it matches the specifications (SKU: ADC-VACC-PWR-VC101).
• Verify Ethernet cables are properly connected and secured at both ends.
