Key features
The L-shaped wall mount is available in two versions: with a short arm (MountCam A1 and MountCam A2) and a long arm (MountCam B1 and MountCam B2). Both versions are designed for mounting the cameras at a 90° angle to the wall surface. The mounts are suitable for indoor and outdoor use. They ensure the cameras are reliably secured in locations where standard brackets are insufficient or the camera’s field of view may be obstructed.
MountCam A1 and MountCam A2 mounts offer compact installation close to the wall. With the MountCam B1 and MountCam B2 mounts, the cameras can be installed at a distance from the wall to ensure an unobstructed field of view. The mount supports installation of varifocal cameras.
The mounts feature pre-drilled fixing points, threaded inserts, and a complete set of fasteners, enabling hassle-free installation by just one installer.
Selecting the installation site
The MountCam installation site must comply with the recommendations for mounting the devices installed using the mount.
Follow these recommendations when designing the Ajax system project for a site.
Where not to install MountCam
- Indoors or outdoors where the temperature and humidity levels do not meet the specified operating parameters. This may damage the wall mount.
- In locations where the conditions do not meet the requirements for a device installed with the wall mount.
Preparing to install
Cable arrangement
When preparing for cable routing, check the electrical and fire safety regulations in your region. Strictly follow these standards and regulations. Tips for cable arrangement are available in this article.
Cable routing
We recommend you read the Selecting the installation site section carefully before installation. Avoid deviations from the system project. Violating the basic installation rules and the recommendations of this manual may lead to incorrect operation and loss of connection with devices installed with MountCam.
Installation
Before installation, ensure that you have selected the optimal location for the wall mount and that it complies with the requirements of this manual.
