Product SKU: TP3908-E
Product Overview
Getting the right camera position on a ceiling, wall, or pole mount often depends on having the correct standoff distance. The AXIS TP3908-E Extension Pipe is a powder-coated aluminium mounting accessory that creates additional clearance between an Axis camera and its mounting surface. Available in 3 lengths (15cm, 30cm, and 100cm) and finished in either black or white, it accommodates both vertical and horizontal mounting orientations for greater flexibility across commercial and architectural installations. The 1.5″ NPS thread connects securely with compatible Axis mounting brackets, junction boxes, and other Axis mounting accessories. Built from corrosion-resistant powder-coated aluminium, it is suited to both indoor and outdoor environments, making it a practical addition to any Axis camera deployment where standard mounting reach is insufficient.
Key Capabilities
Three Length Options
Available in 15cm, 30cm, and 100cm lengths, the TP3908-E gives installers precise control over drop distance and camera positioning. The 100cm option suits high-ceiling environments where cameras need to be brought closer to the monitored area.
1.5″ NPS Thread
The standard 1.5″ NPS thread ensures a secure, stable connection to compatible Axis mounting brackets and junction boxes, reducing installation complexity and helping maintain a rigid camera position once fitted.
Black or White Finish
A choice of black or white powder-coated finish lets installers match the extension pipe to the surrounding ceiling, wall, or pole. This helps the camera mount blend cleanly into commercial, retail, and architectural settings.
Indoor and Outdoor Rated
Powder-coated aluminium construction resists corrosion and surface wear, making the TP3908-E suitable for both internal spaces and exposed outdoor environments such as building facades, car parks, and perimeter structures.
Best For
- High or Vaulted Ceilings: The 100cm length option allows cameras to be dropped down from high ceiling mounts, bringing the viewing angle closer to the area being monitored.
- Wall and Pole Mounts Needing Extra Reach: Horizontal mounting support means the pipe can extend a camera away from a wall or pole surface where clearance is needed for correct field of view.
- Colour-Matched Commercial Installations: Black and white finish options make it straightforward to maintain a consistent, professional appearance across varied architectural environments.
Why Choose the AXIS TP3908-E
The AXIS TP3908-E is purpose-built for Axis camera mounting systems, offering a level of compatibility and thread consistency that generic extension pipes cannot reliably provide. Its 1.5″ NPS thread is matched to Axis mounting accessories, ensuring a secure, stable fit without improvised adapters. The choice of 3 lengths (15cm, 30cm, and 100cm) avoids forcing installers to work with oversized or undersized standoffs, and the availability of black and white finishes means the pipe can be colour-matched to suit the installation environment cleanly. The powder-coated aluminium build holds up outdoors without the surface degradation seen on lower-grade materials. For professional installers specifying Axis systems, the TP3908-E is available through Security Wholesalers as part of a broader range of Axis mounting accessories, making it easy to source alongside cameras and brackets from a single supplier.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Before ordering, confirm the required drop or standoff distance at the installation site. The 15cm pipe suits shallow ceiling spaces or minor wall extensions, the 30cm option covers most standard commercial ceiling drops, and the 100cm pipe is suited to high ceilings or situations where the camera needs to be brought significantly closer to the monitored zone. Ordering the correct length avoids on-site rework, particularly in finished commercial interiors where re-drilling is disruptive. Also confirm the finish colour matches the mount and camera housing already specified on the project.

Ideal Use Cases
High-Ceiling Commercial Spaces
In warehouses, atria, or large retail environments with high ceilings, the 100cm length brings cameras to a more effective viewing height without repositioning the primary ceiling mount point.
Wall and Pole Extensions
Horizontal mounting support allows the TP3908-E to extend cameras away from wall or pole surfaces, providing the angular clearance needed for accurate coverage without obstructions from the mounting structure.
Outdoor Perimeter Structures
The powder-coated aluminium construction resists corrosion in outdoor conditions, making it appropriate for external fence posts, building facades, and car park structures where weather exposure is ongoing.
Architecturally Finished Interiors
The choice of black or white finish allows the extension pipe to be colour-matched to ceilings, columns, or wall surfaces in offices, hotels, or retail environments where visual tidiness is a project requirement.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: Your Axis camera installation requires additional standoff distance from a ceiling, wall, or pole surface, and you need a length-specific, colour-matched solution with a 1.5″ NPS thread that integrates cleanly with Axis mounting accessories.
- Choose a different model if: Your camera brand uses a different thread standard or requires a non-standard pipe diameter, in which case an Axis-specific accessory will not be the correct fit and a brand-matched or universal mounting solution should be considered instead.
FAQs
- What thread size does the AXIS TP3908-E use?
The TP3908-E uses a 1.5″ NPS (National Pipe Straight) thread. This is a standard thread size used across a wide range of Axis mounting brackets and junction boxes, so it integrates directly with compatible Axis mounting accessories without requiring additional adapters. - Which length should I choose for a standard commercial ceiling installation?
For most standard commercial ceiling drops, the 30cm length provides enough extension to bring a camera down to a practical viewing height without excessive overhang. The 15cm option suits situations where only minor additional clearance is needed, while the 100cm pipe is suited to high ceilings or atriums where the camera needs to descend significantly from the ceiling mount point. - Can the TP3908-E be used outdoors?
Yes. The powder-coated aluminium construction is designed to resist corrosion and surface wear, making the TP3908-E suitable for outdoor installations including building exteriors, car parks, fence lines, and perimeter structures exposed to weather. - Does the TP3908-E support both vertical and horizontal mounting orientations?
Yes. The extension pipe supports both vertical and horizontal mounting. This means it can be used for ceiling drop installations (vertical) as well as wall or pole extensions where the camera needs to project outward from a flat surface (horizontal). - Where can I order the AXIS TP3908-E in Australia?
The AXIS TP3908-E Extension Pipe is part of the Security Wholesalers range of Axis Communications mounting accessories. It is available in all 3 lengths and in both black and white finishes, allowing installers to specify the correct variant for each project without compromising on fit or finish.
