How to Wire a GE PTZ Camera

Having your home broken into is a dramatic experience you won't soon forget. One way to reduce the likelihood of such an incident is to install a surveillance camera. A GE PTZ, or pan, tilt, and zoom camera deters criminals who don't like to be watched while they work. Installing this camera requires connecting it with a RJ45 cable to the control box. This is a simple process once you know where to connect the wires.
