§ 01Overview

What the DS-1280ZJ-DM46 is

The Hikvision DS-1280ZJ-DM46 (Hikvision factory code CB120) is a junction box for the company's mini dome cameras in the 2CD25xx and 21x6 ranges. It mounts flat behind the dome and gives a sealed cavity for the network cable and connector, so the join is protected and out of sight.

It is aluminium alloy with a sprayed finish, and the bottom waterproof cover and side gland nut are interchangeable, which lets you bring the cable in from below or from the side to suit the wall. The stated maximum load is 4.5 kg, well above any mini dome it carries.

Hikvision lists this box (CB120) for the 25xx and 21x6 camera series, which covers popular models such as the DS-2CD2566G2, DS-2CD2586G2 and DS-2CD2186G2. Confirm the mounting accessory on your camera's datasheet before ordering.

§ 04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the DS-1280ZJ-DM46

Made for Hikvision mini domes

As the factory CB120, the base and screw pattern match the 25xx and 21x6 dome bodies for a flush, gap-free fit.

Flexible cable entry

The interchangeable bottom cover and side gland let you bring the cable in from below or the side without an extra adaptor.

Weatherproofs the join

A sealed aluminium cavity keeps the cable and connector dry, which is where outdoor domes most often fail.

Durable in Australian conditions

Aluminium alloy with a sprayed finish resists UV and coastal corrosion better than plastic boxes.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Outdoor mini dome installs

Seat a 2CD25xx or 21x6 dome on the box under an eave or on a wall with the cable join sealed inside.

Rendered or uneven walls

The box gives a flat mounting face and hides any gap or oversized cable hole behind the dome.

Side-entry conduit

Use the side gland to bring external conduit straight into the box for a tidy commercial finish.

Tidy retrofits

Cover an existing cable penetration when upgrading to a new mini dome.

§ 08Questions

Frequently asked about the DS-1280ZJ-DM46

Q.01

Which cameras does the DS-1280ZJ-DM46 fit?

Hikvision lists this box (factory code CB120) for the 2CD25xx and 21x6 mini dome families, including models such as the DS-2CD2566G2, DS-2CD2586G2 and DS-2CD2186G2. Check the mounting accessory on your camera's datasheet, as compatibility spans several models.
Q.02

Can I bring the cable in from the side instead of the back?

Yes. The bottom waterproof cover and the side gland nut are interchangeable, so you can route the cable up through the wall or in from the side through surface conduit, whichever suits the install.
Q.03

Is it weatherproof outdoors?

Yes. It is aluminium alloy and rated for indoor and outdoor use. Fit the waterproof cover and seal the cable entry; on exposed walls add outdoor silicone where the base meets the surface.
Q.04

Do I need this box, or can I mount the dome directly?

A mini dome can mount directly to a flat surface, but the DM46 gives a sealed space for the cable join and a cleaner, weatherproof finish, which matters most on outdoor and rendered or uneven surfaces.
Q.05

What is the maximum load?

Hikvision rates the box to a 4.5 kg maximum load, far more than any compatible mini dome. The wall fixings are the practical limit, so use suitable plugs in masonry.
Q.06

Is the camera included?

No. This is the junction box only, bought alongside the mini dome it suits.
Q.07

Does it come in black?

Yes. Hikvision makes a black version (DS-1280ZJ-DM46 BLACK / CB120B) as well as the standard white finish.
