Axis 01748-001 TM3001 Tilted Wall Mount
The Axis 01748-001 is a precision-engineered tilted wall mount designed to optimize coverage for compatible Axis panoramic cameras. Unlike standard flat wall mounts, the TM3001 incorporates a fixed 25° downward tilt angle that eliminates the blind spot directly beneath ceiling-mounted panoramic cameras — a critical gap in typical surveillance deployments where floor-level activity, entry points, and queuing patterns go unseen.
Key Features
- 25° Downward Tilt Angle: Redirects the camera's field of view toward floor-level activity that standard horizontal mounts miss. This is especially valuable in retail environments where package theft, slip-and-fall incidents, or unauthorized access near floor-mounted equipment matter for both security and liability documentation.
- Lightweight Design (1 lb): Minimal weight reduces stress on wall anchors and simplifies installation on drywall, masonry, or lightweight structural elements. One technician can mount and aim without additional equipment or a second set of hands.
- Clean White Finish: Neutral appearance blends into most interior environments without standing out as security infrastructure. Helps with compliance in settings where visible surveillance infrastructure affects customer perception or architectural aesthetics.
- Compatible with Axis Panoramic Models: Designed specifically for the Axis M3067-P and M3068-P panoramic cameras. The mount's tilt geometry and connection points match these models precisely, ensuring stable, repeatable positioning without modification or adapter plates.
- Fixed Mounting Position: Once installed, the 25° tilt is locked in place. No pan, tilt, or zoom adjustment — this simplicity eliminates moving parts that can drift, jam, or require recalibration over time.
- Direct Wall Surface Installation: Mounts directly to standard wall studs or solid backing without additional brackets or intermediate hardware. Reduces complexity and cost compared to pendant or corner mounts.
Integration & Compatibility
The TM3001 is engineered exclusively for Axis panoramic IP cameras, specifically the M3067-P and M3068-P models. Verify your camera model before ordering — this mount is not compatible with fixed-dome, bullet, turret, or PTZ variants. When paired with either compatible camera, the mount delivers the tilt angle needed to capture floor and entry-level coverage without requiring camera firmware adjustment or analytics reconfiguration.
Deployment Context
Panoramic cameras excel at wide horizontal coverage but often leave a coverage void directly below the mounting point. The 01748-001 solves this by angling the entire camera downward 25°. This proves especially useful in retail stores (package theft prevention), office lobbies (access control verification), warehouse entrances (floor-level package inspection), and service areas where operators or customers interact at ground level. The tilt is permanent and factory-set, so there's no risk of drift or accidental re-aiming by facility staff.
Installation Considerations
Mounting surface must be solid enough to accept standard wall anchors or fasteners into wood studs or masonry. The 1 lb weight is forgiving, but confirm wall composition before drilling. Use appropriate anchors for your wall type — heavy-duty toggles for drywall, masonry anchors for concrete or brick. No power or network cabling connects to the mount itself; all connectivity goes directly to the camera.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Axis 01748-001 compatible with other Axis camera models?
A: No. The TM3001 is designed exclusively for the M3067-P and M3068-P panoramic cameras. Do not attempt to mount other camera models — the connection geometry and weight distribution are specific to these two models.
Q: Can I adjust the tilt angle after installation?
A: No. The 25° tilt is fixed at manufacture. If you need different coverage angles or dynamic pan/tilt capability, consider a full PTZ mount or install a second camera with a standard flat mount.
Q: What tools are required for installation?
A: A standard drill, screwdriver, and appropriate wall anchors for your wall type. The mount itself ships with mounting hardware; verify the contents match your wall surface type before installation.
Q: Does the 01748-001 work outdoors?
A: No. The TM3001 is designed for interior wall mounting only. It is not rated for weathering, rain, or temperature extremes. Use only in climate-controlled indoor environments.
Q: How much clearance do I need above the mount for the camera and cable routing?
A: Allow at least 4–6 inches above the mount for the camera body and network cable entry. The angled mount itself adds minimal depth to the wall face — approximately 1–2 inches depending on connection hardware.

The Axis 01748-001 solves a real coverage problem that flat-mounted panoramic cameras create: the blind spot underneath the camera. That 25° downward tilt isn't a cosmetic option — it's the whole point of the mount. If you're installing M3067-P or M3068-P cameras in retail or lobby environments where floor-level activity matters, this mount closes a gap that standard horizontal mounting leaves wide open.
Technical Highlights:
- Fixed 25° Downward Tilt: Permanent angle redirect means no drift, no accidental re-aiming by building staff, and consistent coverage geometry over the life of the deployment. Once aimed, it stays aimed.
- 1 lb Weight: Light enough for standard drywall anchors or masonry fasteners without requiring structural reinforcement. Reduces installation labor and material cost compared to heavier panoramic mounts.
- M3067-P / M3068-P Exclusive Design: Engineered connection geometry means no adapters, no shimming, no compatibility gambles. Direct mechanical fit ensures stable, vibration-free operation.
Deployment Considerations:
- This mount is interior-only. No IP rating, no weather resistance. Don't try to mount this outdoors or in unconditioned spaces with temperature swings or humidity.
- Fixed tilt means you can't fine-tune coverage angle in the field. Get the height and tilt right during initial install. If a different angle is needed later, you're removing and remounting.
- Verify your panoramic camera model before purchasing. If you have M3064-V, M3065-V, or any other non-P variant, this mount won't connect properly.
Position the 01748-001 where you need floor-level detail capture — retail checkout zones, entrance vestibules, loading dock ingress points. The fixed geometry is a feature, not a limitation, in spaces where coverage angle isn't expected to change. For facilities needing dynamic aim capability, specify a full PTZ or multi-camera array instead.
