Lowered Mounting Or Mounting on Extensions
When mounting the camera in rooms with a
high ceiling, or outdoors, it is sometimes advis-
able to mount the camera in a lower position.
This reduces the distance between the camera
and the objects that are to be monitored, which
in turn increases the recognizability of details.
One practical solution would be to install the
camera on a base plate attached to a suitable
extension (e.g. tube) hanging from the ceiling.
The network cable can be hidden from view by
running through the interior of the tube.
Similar to lowered mounting from the ceiling,
you can also attach the camera to an exten-
sion mounted to a wall to better use the 360°
image of the camera (e.g. outside, above a
portal). Such an installation would use the wall
mount accessory (MX-OPT-WH).
MOBOTIX does not recommend attaching the
camera directly to metal carriers, especially
when mounting the camera outdoors or when
the ambient temperature varies greatly. To pro-
tect against condensation in such a case, you
should attach the camera to the carrier using
only the On-Wall set (MX-OPT-AP) or the Wall
Mount (MX-OPT-WH).
Installation On Building Corners With The Corner And Pole Mount
This is a special method of Q24M installation, offering
substantial advantages for the outdoor surveillance
of buildings.
The hemispherical lens of a single Q24M can cover
the entire 270° range from one building wall to the
other, for an "around the corner" view!
The camera should not
be directly mounted to
metal surfaces (con-
densation may damage
the camera): in such
cases, MOBOTIX recom-
mends using the On-Wall
Set or Wall Mount
