ACTi PMAX-0718 Junction Box for A71
Overview
The ACTi PMAX-0718 is a junction box designed to centralize power distribution and signal routing for A71 series camera installations. It consolidates PoE+ (802.3at) feeds and provides a single management point for multi-camera deployments, reducing cable clutter at mount points and simplifying troubleshooting. Use this when you're running multiple A71 cameras from a switch and need organized, protected junction points in walls, ceilings, or rack enclosures.
Compatibility
The PMAX-0718 integrates with ACTi A71 series cameras. It supports standard PoE+ (802.3at) sourced from switches or injectors, making it compatible with any 802.3at-capable network infrastructure. Installation methods include wall-mount, ceiling-mount, and rack configurations — verify your mounting surface and cable routing paths before ordering.
Installation Notes
This is a passive junction enclosure; no power supply or active electronics are internal. Route PoE+ feeds and camera signal lines through the box entry points, securing cables with standard cable glands or conduit adapters (not included). Ensure adequate clearance for connector strain relief and maintain proper cable bend radius at entry points to avoid damage to RJ-45 contacts. The box is rated for indoor use in dry environments — do not expose to direct moisture or outdoor weather without supplemental weatherproofing.
