3.7 Mounting the Back Box and Routing the Cables
If required, install additional mounting hardware for the camera according to the instructions for the
hardware.
To maintain structural integrity, before drilling into the mounting surface, make sure it is at least 50mm
(2”) thick.
To mount the back box:
1. Using the mounting template, drill six holes on the wall or mounting surface: Diameter
⌀
3/8”
(9.5mm), depth 1/1/2” (40mm). To ensure proper installation, make sure the drilled holes are of
correct size.
2. Hammer the six screw anchors into the drilled holes.
3. Cables can enter the back box from the rear or from the side. If the cables are going to enter from
the rear, use the mounting template to drill a bottom conduit hole for the cables.
4. Route the power and network cabling into the back box.
•
If you are connecting the camera using a single Ethernet cable with an RJ45 plug attached,
attach the RJ45 insertion tool included with the camera to the RJ45 plug. Then, route the tool,
plug, and cable through the single cable rubber seal included with the camera.

If you are connecting the camera in any other way, route the cables through the multiple cable
rubber seal included with the camera.
Securely fasten the rubber seal to either the bottom or the side conduit hole. In addition, FLIR
recommends applying 3M waterproofing tape on the cables that pass through either conduit hole.
5. Mount the back box onto the wall or surface. Using the Philips head screwdriver, fasten the six TP4
tapping screws into the six screw anchors.
