Installation
IMPORTANT

NOTE:
- It is presumed that this wall-mount bracket is installed with a hole drilled on the wall for routing power lines, DI/DO, and Ethernet cables.
- Route cables before you secure the wall-mount bracket to a wall.
- For details on the cable connections with each camera, please refer to their Quick Installation Guide.
Wall Mount Installation
Use the included alignment sticker on a preferred position. Drill holes on the
wall and install the junction box. If space behind the wall allows, you may
also pass cables through the wall. Note that an NPT pipe is still recommended
if the connection goes through a wall. Make sure water can not enter the
drilled hole. Use silicon or caulk the drilled hole to prevent water leakage.
.
IMPORTANT:
The screws and mounting surface must be able to support a weight of 5 kg.
A 3/4″ conduit is required for routing the cables with waterproof connection.
The cable gland and conduit are user-supplied.
Install the cable gland and pass cables through it. Form a drip loop when
routing with the conduits.
Installing the Bracket and Adapter
- Route cables through the AM-218 bracket and the adapter (AM-520/AM-525/AM-527/AM-528).
- Secure the bracket to the conduit box using the included hex screws.
- Secure the adapter by turning them clockwise. When done, fasten the hex socket screw to secure the connection.
- Follow the instructions in the Installation Guide that came with the adapter to install network cameras.
Pole mount and corner mount are also supported. Please refer to their
Installation Guides for more information.
