Hikvision CB130 Aluminum Conduit Base for Dome Camera
The Hikvision CB130 is a precision-engineered mounting base designed to anchor dome cameras securely while providing weatherproof protection for outdoor surveillance deployments. Constructed from aluminum alloy, this conduit base handles the structural and environmental demands of perimeter monitoring, parking structures, and facility access-point installations where mounting stability and weather resistance are non-negotiable.
Key Features
- Aluminum Alloy Construction: Resists corrosion in outdoor environments—critical for long-term reliability in coastal, high-humidity, or salt-spray zones where steel mounts degrade quickly.
- Waterproof Design: Sealed construction prevents rain ingress at the cable conduit junction, eliminating a common failure point where water pools and corrodes connectors. This matters most in installations subject to heavy rain or roof-edge mounting where water runs downward.
- Lightweight at 0.47 lbs: Reduces installation labor and structural load on mounting surfaces. On soffit or wall installations where repeated drilling or bolting adds cost, lighter hardware speeds deployment without requiring reinforcement.
- White Finish: Blends with standard building materials and reduces solar heat absorption compared to black bases—a small but real factor in direct sunlight where thermal stress can loosen fasteners over time.
- Compatible with Eight Hikvision Dome Models: Integrates directly with DS-2CE16C5T-IT1, DS-2CE15C2N-VFIR3, DS-2CD42xxFxx-IZHx, DS-2CD4AxxFxx-IZHx, DS-2CD26x2FWD-IZS, DS-2CD2Tx2WD-I, DS-2CD22x2-IS, and DS-2CD26x2F-I cameras—verify your exact camera model before ordering, as mounting interfaces vary within the Hikvision catalog.
Integration & Compatibility
The CB130 mounts to standard building substrates (soffit, wall, panel) using common fasteners and routes camera cables through a conduit interface—check your camera's mounting collar diameter and your network cabling plan before installation. This base is designed to work alongside Hikvision dome IP cameras in mixed indoor-outdoor deployments. For guidance on camera selection and mounting strategy across your facility, consult your site survey and surveillance system design guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will the CB130 work with my Hikvision turret camera?
A: No. The CB130 is engineered for dome cameras only. Turret cameras use a different mounting interface. Confirm your camera model against the eight compatible models listed above.
Q: What fasteners do I need to mount the CB130 to concrete or metal?
A: The CB130 itself includes the base; you will need anchors and screws appropriate to your substrate (concrete anchors for concrete, self-tapping screws for metal). Consult your site conditions and local building codes.
Q: Is the CB130 suitable for coastal or salt-spray environments?
A: Yes. Aluminum alloy resists salt corrosion better than steel. For extreme salt-spray zones (e.g., direct oceanfront), verify with your integrator whether additional protective coatings are needed for longevity beyond 5 years.
Q: Does the CB130 come with conduit or cable glands?
A: No. The base provides the conduit interface; you source conduit and cable glands separately based on your cable gauge and local code requirements.
Q: Can I use the CB130 on a sloped soffit or angled surface?
A: The CB130 is designed for standard flat surfaces. Sloped or curved installations may require custom brackets or spacers—plan this during your site survey.

The CB130 is a straightforward conduit base—not glamorous, but it solves a real problem on outdoor dome installs. Aluminum construction and waterproof design mean you're not chasing corrosion failures six months after deployment. At 0.47 lbs, it's light enough that installation labor is minimal, and the white finish won't absorb heat and loosen fasteners in direct sun like darker bases can.
Deployment Highlights:
- Aluminum Alloy + Waterproof Seal: Corrosion resistance is the primary win here. In outdoor environments—especially parking structures, perimeter fencing, or any location subject to moisture—steel bases rust. This base resists it. The sealed conduit interface stops water pooling at the cable entry point, a common source of connector failure.
- Eight Compatible Hikvision Models: Before you order, verify your camera model against the list. Mounting interfaces are specific, and a mismatched base wastes installation time. Confirm part numbers in your bill of materials.
- 0.47 lbs Lightweight Design: Reduces load on soffit and wall anchor points. On retrofit installations where drilling already-installed surfaces adds risk, a lighter base means fewer fasteners and less structural stress.
Deployment Considerations:
- The CB130 is a passive mount—it does not provide pan-tilt or zoom adjustment. It's for fixed-view dome cameras only.
- Conduit and cable glands are not included. Budget for these separately based on your cable gauge and local electrical code. A missed order here delays installation.
- Do not use this base on sloped or curved surfaces without custom spacers. Uneven contact can stress the camera mounting collar and introduce cable strain.
Best fit: outdoor fixed-view dome installations in harsh or wet environments—parking lots, perimeter fencing, facility entrances, or roof-edge mounting where weatherproofing is non-negotiable and the camera sits stationary. If you need pan-tilt capability, look for a PTZ-rated mounting base instead.
