Product Overview
Installers mounting the AXIS P3747-PLVE or AXIS P3748-PLVE panoramic camera outdoors need a purpose-built solution that handles both the mechanical demands of pendant-style installation and the environmental exposure that comes with it. This Axis Communications Pendant Mount Kit with Weathershield is designed exactly for that job, providing a secure, weather-protected mounting platform for these two specific multidirectional panoramic cameras. Constructed from durable aluminium in a white finish, the kit integrates a weathershield to protect the camera junction from the elements without requiring a separate enclosure. It supports 1.5-inch NPS threaded brackets, allowing installation across a range of surfaces including poles, parapets, outer building corners, and walls when combined with the appropriate additional Axis accessories. Included stainless steel straps with TX30 screw interface ensure long-term mechanical integrity in outdoor environments. It is well suited to commercial, industrial, and campus-scale deployments where wide-area panoramic coverage is being installed at elevation.
Key Capabilities
Purpose-Built Pendant Mount
Designed specifically as a pendant mount for the AXIS P3747-PLVE and P3748-PLVE, this kit ensures a secure, correctly aligned installation without adapters or workarounds. It fits the mechanical footprint of these multidirectional cameras exactly as intended by Axis.
Integrated Weathershield
The built-in weathershield protects the camera’s mounting junction and cabling entry point from rain, dust, and outdoor exposure. This removes the need for a separate junction box cover in many outdoor pendant installations, simplifying the overall installation process.
1.5-Inch NPS Thread Compatibility
Support for the 1.5-inch NPS thread standard means this kit works with a wide range of Axis-compatible poles, wall arms, parapet brackets, and corner mounts. Installers can use existing conduit infrastructure or select the appropriate Axis bracket for the target surface.
Aluminium Construction with Stainless Steel Straps
The aluminium body resists corrosion and keeps weight manageable at 1,240 g. Included stainless steel straps with a TX30 screw interface provide a durable, vibration-resistant fixing method suited to outdoor poles and structural surfaces over long service periods.
Best For
- Outdoor Pole and Parapet Installations: The 1.5-inch NPS thread compatibility and included stainless steel straps make this kit practical for mounting the compatible panoramic cameras on poles, parapets, and outer building corners in exposed outdoor settings.
- Commercial and Campus-Scale Panoramic Deployments: Where AXIS P3747-PLVE or P3748-PLVE cameras are being deployed across car parks, campuses, or large open areas, this pendant mount positions the camera at elevation for maximum multidirectional field coverage.
- Installers Requiring a Weatherproof Junction at the Mount Point: The integrated weathershield addresses outdoor cabling protection at the mount junction, reducing the need for additional enclosure accessories and keeping the installation profile tidy.
Why Choose the Axis Pendant Mount Kit with Weathershield
Generic mounting hardware cannot account for the specific weight distribution, footprint, and cabling geometry of the AXIS P3747-PLVE and P3748-PLVE multidirectional cameras. This Axis Communications Pendant Mount Kit is engineered for these exact models, ensuring the camera sits in the correct orientation for full panoramic coverage without mechanical stress on the housing. The integrated weathershield means outdoor pendant installations do not require a separate junction cover, keeping the install cleaner and reducing component count. Aluminium construction at 395 x 390 x 95 mm keeps the assembly appropriately sized for the cameras it supports, and the stainless steel straps provide pole-fixing reliability that generic brackets cannot match. For installers completing outdoor panoramic camera projects, the kit is available through Security Wholesalers and pairs directly with Axis-compatible pole arms and parapet brackets for a complete installation solution.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: This pendant mount kit is compatible only with the AXIS P3747-PLVE and AXIS P3748-PLVE. If you are mounting any other Axis panoramic camera model, check the Axis accessory selector for the correct mount. Additionally, while this kit supports poles, parapets, and corners, the specific bracket for each surface type (pole arm, parapet mount, corner bracket) is sold separately. Confirm your target mounting surface and select the appropriate Axis bracket before ordering.

Ideal Use Cases
Car Park Pole Installations
Mounting the P3747-PLVE or P3748-PLVE panoramic camera on a car park lighting pole using this pendant kit and stainless steel straps positions the camera at elevation for wide-area multidirectional coverage across the entire parking area.
Campus Perimeter and Open Area Monitoring
Schools, universities, and commercial campuses deploying panoramic cameras across open grounds benefit from pendant mounting at height, using this kit to secure cameras to existing infrastructure with the weathershield protecting the cabling junction.
Building Parapet and Corner Mounting
Where the camera needs to be positioned at a parapet or outer building corner for panoramic coverage of multiple approach directions, this kit’s 1.5-inch NPS thread compatibility allows pairing with the appropriate Axis parapet or corner bracket.
Industrial Site and Warehouse Yard Deployment
Industrial environments with existing pole infrastructure can use this pendant mount to position multidirectional panoramic cameras above yard activity. The aluminium construction and stainless steel straps are suited to the mechanical demands of industrial outdoor settings.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You are installing an AXIS P3747-PLVE or AXIS P3748-PLVE panoramic camera outdoors in a pendant configuration on a pole, parapet, corner, or wall, and need a weathershielded pendant mount that is confirmed compatible by Axis.
- Choose a different model if: You are installing a different Axis panoramic camera model, or if your installation requires a flush ceiling or surface mount rather than a pendant configuration. Axis provides separate mounting accessories for other camera models and mount styles, and selecting the correct accessory for your specific camera is essential before purchasing.
FAQs
- Which cameras is this pendant mount kit compatible with?
This kit is confirmed compatible with the AXIS P3747-PLVE and AXIS P3748-PLVE panoramic cameras only. These are multidirectional panoramic cameras from Axis, and this pendant mount is designed around their specific housing geometry and weight. It is not intended for use with other Axis camera models.
- Does this kit include everything needed to mount the camera on a pole?
The kit includes stainless steel straps with a TX30 screw interface, which are suited to pole fixing. It supports 1.5-inch NPS threaded brackets. However, specific surface brackets for parapets, walls, or structural poles may need to be purchased separately depending on your mounting surface. Confirm the full bracket configuration for your site before ordering.
- What does the weathershield do, and is a separate outdoor enclosure still needed?
The integrated weathershield protects the cable entry and mounting junction from rain and outdoor exposure. For many outdoor pendant pole installations, this removes the need for a separate junction box cover. However, the weathershield protects the mount junction, not the camera body itself. The P3747-PLVE and P3748-PLVE cameras have their own environmental ratings, which should be verified separately for the target installation environment.
- What surfaces can this mount be installed on?
This pendant mount supports poles, parapets, outer building corners, and walls when paired with the appropriate Axis-compatible brackets. The 1.5-inch NPS thread standard is widely used across Axis mounting accessories, giving installers flexibility to select the right bracket type for each surface without replacing the pendant mount itself.
- What are the physical dimensions and weight of the kit?
The pendant mount kit measures 395 x 390 x 95 mm (L x W x H) and weighs 1,240 g. The aluminium construction keeps the assembly corrosion-resistant and reasonably lightweight for a mount designed to support multidirectional panoramic cameras at elevation. This kit is available through Security Wholesalers for verified Axis installations.
