Extra Info
Threaded Pipe Design
The DH-PFA111 features a G1 1/2” threaded pipe interface, engineered to be fully compatible with standard pipe thread sizes commonly used in Dahua’s mounting solutions. This ensures seamless integration with a wide variety of Dahua ceiling and wall mounts, such as:
-
Junction boxes, which allow for clean cable management and weatherproofing
-
Ceiling brackets, ideal for overhead camera installations
-
Corner mounts, useful for positioning cameras on building edges or pillars
This standardized threading makes the DH-PFA111 a highly versatile adapter, simplifying installation and reducing the need for additional adapters or modifications.
Strong and Weatherproof Construction
Constructed from high-quality aluminum alloy, the DH-PFA111 adapter is designed to be both lightweight and durable. The aluminum material offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it well suited for demanding environmental conditions, including:
- Outdoor installations exposed to rain, moisture, and humidity
- Areas with extreme temperature variations, from hot summers to cold winters
- Coastal or industrial locations where corrosive agents may be present
Its robust build ensures reliable long-term performance, protecting the camera mount from degradation and maintaining a secure connection in harsh weather conditions.
Universal White Finish
The DH-PFA111 is coated in a matte white finish, chosen for both aesthetic and functional benefits:
- The neutral white color blends seamlessly with most building exteriors and interiors, making the adapter unobtrusive and visually consistent with common architectural finishes.
- It pairs perfectly with other Dahua mounting accessories, which often feature similar white tones, ensuring a cohesive, professional appearance.
- The light-colored surface reflects sunlight and reduces heat absorption compared to darker materials, helping maintain temperature stability around the mounting area. This can contribute to the longevity of both the adapter and attached equipment by minimizing heat-related stress.
