Product SKU: TP1602-E
Product Overview
Installers working on professional outdoor CCTV deployments will find the AXIS TP1602-E Conduit Back Box a practical solution for achieving clean, compliant camera installations where surface conduit or in-wall cable routing is required. Designed as a weatherproof junction back box for selected Axis fixed bullet and thermal cameras, it provides additional internal depth for cable termination, connector space, and conduit entry that a standard flush-mount bracket simply cannot accommodate. Rated to IP66 for dust and heavy rain ingress protection, and IK10 for impact resistance, the TP1602-E is suited to exposed outdoor environments including commercial buildings, industrial yards, schools, and public infrastructure. The durable powder-coated finish stands up to the conditions typically found on commercial sites. It is designed for pairing with selected Axis P14 Series bullet cameras and the Axis Q19 Thermal camera series, making it a purposeful accessory for structured outdoor installations.
Key Capabilities
IP66 Outdoor Protection
The IP66 rating ensures the enclosure keeps dust and heavy rain away from internal cable connections and terminations, making it appropriate for exposed outdoor wall and soffit mounting positions on commercial and industrial sites.
IK10 Impact Resistance
An IK10 impact rating provides resistance to physical force, making the back box suitable for vandal-prone environments such as building exteriors, car parks, and publicly accessible areas where accidental or deliberate impact is a consideration.
Conduit Entry Support
Built-in conduit entry points allow installers to route cabling through surface conduit in a way that is both neat and code-compliant, avoiding exposed cable runs along the wall between the camera and the nearest conduit termination point.
Extra Depth for Cable Management
The deeper-than-standard enclosure provides additional working space for connector loops, RJ45 terminations, and cable slack, which is particularly useful on thermal or multi-cable camera installations where standard back boxes become cramped.
Best For
- Conduit Installations: Sites where cable is run through surface or concealed conduit benefit from the TP1602-E’s built-in conduit entry points, which allow a clean transition between conduit and camera without exposed cabling at the mounting point.
- Exposed Outdoor Environments: The IP66 and IK10 ratings make this back box appropriate for wall-mounted positions on building exteriors, loading docks, industrial facilities, and other locations subject to weather and potential impact.
- Axis P14 and Q19 Installations: Designed specifically for use with selected Axis P14 Series bullet cameras and Axis Q19 Thermal camera series, ensuring correct fitment and a factory-matched mounting solution rather than a generic bracket.
Why Choose the AXIS TP1602-E
The TP1602-E is not a generic back box. It is an Axis-manufactured accessory engineered to pair with specific Axis camera models, which means the dimensions, mounting points, and cable routing geometry are matched to those platforms. A generic third-party back box may provide enclosure space but will not guarantee the same fit, finish, or weatherproofing integrity at the camera-to-back-box interface. The IP66 and IK10 ratings confirm this unit is built for sustained outdoor exposure, not just occasional light use. The extra internal depth solves a real problem for installers handling thermal cameras or multi-connector setups where standard junction boxes run out of room before the installation is complete. Available through Security Wholesalers, the TP1602-E is a purpose-built accessory for professional integrators who need a mounting solution that meets the same standard as the camera it supports.
Buyer Decision Tips
Confirm Camera Compatibility Before Ordering: The TP1602-E is designed for selected Axis P14 Series bullet cameras and the Axis Q19 Thermal camera series. Not every Axis camera model uses the same back box mounting pattern, so always verify that your specific camera model is listed as compatible before purchasing. Using an incompatible back box may compromise weatherproofing at the mounting interface, even if the unit physically attaches.

Ideal Use Cases
Commercial Building Exteriors
Wall-mounted Axis bullet or thermal cameras on commercial buildings benefit from the TP1602-E’s IP66 weatherproofing and conduit entry, keeping the installation watertight and the cable routing compliant with commercial site standards.
Industrial Facilities and Warehouses
The IK10 impact rating makes the TP1602-E suitable for industrial environments where cameras are mounted in areas exposed to equipment movement, forklifts, or general physical activity near the mounting point.
Schools and Campus Perimeters
Schools and education campuses requiring conduit-fed outdoor camera installations can use the TP1602-E to achieve a clean finish at each camera point while maintaining the vandal resistance demanded by public-facing installations.
Public Infrastructure and Government Sites
Sites where conduit wiring is mandated by specification or regulation benefit from the TP1602-E’s native conduit entry support, enabling a factory-designed mounting solution that meets documentation and compliance requirements.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You are installing a compatible Axis P14 Series bullet camera or Axis Q19 Thermal camera in an outdoor location that requires surface conduit termination, extra cable management depth, or an IP66 and IK10-rated back box solution.
- Choose a different model if: Your Axis camera model is not within the P14 or Q19 families, as other Axis camera series use different mounting footprints and may require a different back box or pendant accessory. Always verify compatibility with the specific camera model before ordering.
FAQs
- What is the TP1602-E designed to do?
The AXIS TP1602-E is a conduit back box that mounts between the wall surface and a compatible Axis camera. It provides additional depth for cable termination and connector space, and includes conduit entry points so installers can route cables through surface conduit rather than leaving them exposed. It is rated IP66 for outdoor use and IK10 for impact resistance.
- Which Axis cameras is the TP1602-E compatible with?
The TP1602-E is designed for use with selected Axis P14 Series bullet cameras and the Axis Q19 Thermal camera series. Axis produces different back box and bracket accessories for other camera families, so compatibility should always be confirmed against your specific camera model number before ordering.
- Does the IP66 rating mean the back box is fully waterproof for outdoor installation?
IP66 means the enclosure is rated to resist powerful water jets and complete dust ingress, which covers the vast majority of outdoor weather conditions including heavy rain. It is appropriate for exposed wall mounting on building exteriors. It does not cover submersion, so the back box should not be installed in areas subject to water pooling or flooding.
- Why does the TP1602-E have extra internal depth compared to a standard bracket?
Axis thermal cameras and certain bullet cameras involve more cabling and connector volume than a basic IP camera installation. The extra depth in the TP1602-E gives installers the room needed to loop cable, terminate connectors, and manage cable slack without forcing the camera tight against the wall or leaving connectors outside the protected enclosure.
- Is the TP1602-E suitable for vandal-prone locations?
Yes. The IK10 impact resistance rating confirms the enclosure can withstand significant physical force, meeting the same impact standard used for vandal-resistant camera housings. This makes the TP1602-E appropriate for publicly accessible outdoor locations where the mounting hardware may be subject to deliberate or accidental impact. This accessory is part of the Security Wholesalers range of Axis mounting solutions for professional installers.
