Product SKU: AM-718
Product Overview
The Vivotek AM-718 is a waterproof junction box designed to support compatible PTZ camera installations where secure cable protection, weather resistance, and a professional mounting finish are essential. Its robust housing helps protect internal connections from environmental exposure while also providing a clean and organised base for mounting supported surveillance devices. Built for demanding installations, the AM-718 is well suited to outdoor security projects where durability, neat cable management, and reliable long-term performance are important.
Why Choose the AM-718
The AM-718 is a strong choice for installers who need more than a simple mounting accessory. As a waterproof junction box, it helps safeguard cabling and connection points while improving the overall finish of the installation. Its durable construction, weather-resistant casing, and vandal-resistant rating make it particularly suitable for exposed PTZ camera environments where protection and presentation both matter. It is ideal for projects that require a more secure and professional mounting solution for larger surveillance devices.
Key Capabilities
Weather-Resistant Cable Protection
The AM-718 is designed to help protect internal camera cabling and connection points from rain, dust, and outdoor exposure. This improves the reliability of the installation and helps reduce the risk of environmental damage affecting the surveillance system over time.
Professional PTZ Installation Base
This junction box provides a more structured and professional mounting foundation for compatible PTZ camera setups. It helps create a cleaner finished appearance while giving installers a practical enclosure for routing and protecting wiring behind the mounted device.
Durable Construction for Demanding Sites
Built from Aluminum and SPCC materials, the AM-718 is intended for installations where mounting strength and long-term resilience are important. Its substantial design makes it suitable for more demanding surveillance environments, including exposed commercial and industrial areas.
Enhanced Physical Protection
With both weather-resistant and impact-resistant characteristics, the AM-718 helps support installations in locations where equipment may be exposed to harsh conditions or accidental contact. This makes it a more suitable choice for public-facing or vulnerable mounting positions.
Key Features
-
Waterproof Junction Box Design: Designed to provide a protected enclosure for camera connections and cable termination points, helping improve installation reliability in exposed environments where moisture and dust could otherwise affect system performance.
-
Suitable for PTZ Camera Installations: Well suited to supported PTZ camera models and related mounting configurations where a secure and purpose-built junction box is needed to support professional outdoor deployment.
-
Aluminum and SPCC Construction: The combination of Aluminum and SPCC materials provides a strong and durable structure, helping the junction box maintain dependable support and protection in long-term surveillance installations.
-
IP67 Weather Resistance: The casing is designed to resist dust and water ingress, helping protect cable connections and contributing to a more reliable outdoor installation result in changing weather conditions.
-
IK10 Impact Resistance: The IK10-rated casing provides an added level of physical durability, making the AM-718 a better option for locations where stronger protection against external impact is beneficial.
-
White Finish: The white colour helps the box blend neatly with many common building surfaces and camera housings, supporting a cleaner and more professional final appearance.
-
Large Internal Space: With dimensions of 255 mm x 200 mm x 130 mm, the junction box offers useful internal capacity for cable routing and connection management in larger camera installations.
-
Heavy-Duty Build: At 2020 g, the AM-718 is a substantial accessory intended for serious surveillance installations rather than light-duty mounting tasks, helping reinforce its role in robust PTZ deployments.
