Product SKU: DS-1291ZJ-BL
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-1291ZJ-BL is a compact black desktop and pendant mounting bracket designed for compatible Hikvision covert camera modules. Its dual-purpose design allows a supported sensor head to be positioned on a desk, shelf or other suitable flat surface, or installed in a pendant arrangement from an overhead mounting point. A universal regulating mechanism provides straightforward adjustment of the camera direction after installation, helping installers fine-tune the required viewing angle. The bracket uses a lightweight black plastic construction and measures approximately 87 × 73 × 73 mm with a weight of only 70.5 g, making it considerably less obtrusive than a conventional CCTV mounting arm. A 1/4-20 UNC mounting connection is incorporated into the adjustable head. The DS-1291ZJ-BL is intended for select Hikvision covert camera systems, with exact sensor-head compatibility requiring confirmation before installation.
Key Capabilities
Desktop or Pendant Installation
The same bracket supports both desktop and pendant mounting, giving installers flexibility when positioning a compatible covert camera module. It can sit on a suitable surface or be mounted overhead depending on the surveillance requirement and available installation space.
Universal Regulating Mechanism
Hikvision incorporates an adjustable regulating mechanism that allows the supported camera head to be repositioned after mounting. This makes it easier to refine the viewing direction without replacing or extensively repositioning the complete bracket.
Compact 87 × 73 × 73 mm Design
The small mounting footprint suits discreet camera applications where a conventional full-size CCTV bracket would be unnecessarily large. Its compact dimensions make it practical for shelves, counters, equipment areas and other confined indoor mounting positions.
Lightweight Plastic Construction
The black plastic bracket weighs approximately 70.5 g, helping keep the completed mounting arrangement lightweight and visually understated. The dark finish is especially useful around black equipment, shelving or interior surfaces where a white CCTV accessory would be conspicuous.
Purpose-Built for Covert Camera Modules
Unlike general-purpose camera brackets, the DS-1291ZJ-BL is specifically identified by Hikvision for select covert camera configurations. This provides a cleaner mechanical fit when the correct compatible sensor head and mounting arrangement are selected.
Best For
- Desktop covert-camera installations: Position a compatible sensor head on a desk, shelf, cabinet or other suitable indoor surface.
- Pendant installations: Suspend the supported camera module from an overhead mounting position when a downward viewing angle is required.
- Compact monitoring positions: Suitable where a standard CCTV bracket would be unnecessarily large or visually intrusive.
- Adjustable sensor-head placement: The regulating mechanism allows the camera direction to be refined after the bracket is positioned.
Why Choose the DS-1291ZJ-BL
The DS-1291ZJ-BL is useful when a compatible Hikvision covert camera sensor requires more positioning flexibility than a fixed mounting point can provide. Its ability to work as either a desktop or pendant mount means one compact accessory can support several installation layouts, while the universal regulating mechanism simplifies final camera alignment. At only 70.5 g and approximately 87 × 73 × 73 mm, the bracket remains small enough for discreet indoor applications without introducing a bulky conventional CCTV mount. Available through Security Wholesalers, it is particularly relevant for compatible Hikvision covert-camera systems where the sensor head needs a purpose-designed black bracket with straightforward adjustment and a 1/4-20 UNC mounting connection.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Confirm the exact covert camera model and sensor-head type before ordering. Hikvision covert camera systems can use different sensor modules and mounting arrangements, so compatibility should be determined from the specific camera configuration rather than appearance alone.
Buyer Tip: The available specification identifies the DS-1291ZJ-BL as a plastic desktop and pendant bracket but does not provide an outdoor weather-protection rating. For exposed locations, use only equipment and mounting accessories specifically verified for the intended environmental conditions.

FAQs
- What is the Hikvision DS-1291ZJ-BL used for?
The Hikvision DS-1291ZJ-BL is a black desktop and pendant mounting bracket for compatible Hikvision covert camera modules. Its dual-purpose design allows a supported camera head to be positioned on a desk, shelf or other suitable surface, or suspended from an overhead mounting point. The adjustable mechanism helps installers aim the camera after the bracket has been secured. - Can the DS-1291ZJ-BL be used as both a desktop and pendant mount?
Yes. Hikvision specifically describes the DS-1291ZJ-BL as a desktop and pendant mount. This gives installers flexibility to use the same accessory for a freestanding surface installation or an overhead suspended arrangement, subject to the installation location and the compatible covert camera module being used. The adjustable joint can then be used to refine the viewing direction. - Which cameras are compatible with the DS-1291ZJ-BL?
The DS-1291ZJ-BL is intended for select Hikvision covert camera modules. Hikvision accessory guides have listed it with DS-2CD6412FWD and DS-2CD6424FWD family variants, but compatibility should always be checked against the exact camera model before ordering. Covert systems often use separate sensor heads and main units, so the mounting requirement depends on the specific sensor configuration. - What are the dimensions and weight of the DS-1291ZJ-BL?
Hikvision specifies the DS-1291ZJ-BL at 87 × 73 × 73 mm with a weight of approximately 70.5 g. Its compact plastic construction keeps the mounting assembly lightweight and relatively discreet, which is useful when positioning a small covert camera head on furniture, shelving or an overhead location where a large CCTV bracket would be visually intrusive. - What material is the DS-1291ZJ-BL made from?
The DS-1291ZJ-BL is made from black plastic. This keeps the bracket lightweight while providing a purpose-built support for compatible covert camera modules. The black finish also helps the accessory remain visually understated in darker interiors or around equipment where a larger metal CCTV bracket would attract unnecessary attention. - How adjustable is the DS-1291ZJ-BL?
Hikvision specifies a universal regulating mechanism designed to make the bracket easy to adjust. The mounting arrangement uses a 1/4-20 UNC connection at the adjustable head, allowing the supported camera module to be aimed after installation.
