Installing Ring Plug-In Adapter (2nd Generation)

The Ring Plug-In Adapter (2nd Generation) is designed to power your Ring video doorbell. It is not compatible with Door View Cam or Video Doorbell Elite.

Installing your doorbell with a Plug-In Adapter

Step 1: Choose a socket

Select a power outlet near the door where you plan to install your Ring video doorbell. Don't plug the power adapter in yet.

Step 2: Run the cable

• Run the cable down from the outlet to your moulding, then choose a path to your Video Doorbell.
• Secure the cable to the wall with provided cable clips.
  • The cable can be run through your walls, a door, or a window.
  • Avoid existing electrical wiring and pipes when drilling through walls.

Step 3: Attach the wires

• Attach the power cables to the terminals on the rear of your Ring video doorbell.
• It doesn't matter which cable is connected to which terminal. The device will work with either cable connected to either terminal.
