Axis 03328-001 TQ1953-E Top Cover Kit
Overview
The Axis 03328-001 is a replacement top cover kit for the AXIS TQ1953-E pendant PTZ housing. Use it to restore a weathered, cracked, or damaged cover on an in-service TQ1953-E without pulling the whole housing or swapping the camera and PTZ head. It's the right call when the dome or top shell has taken UV, impact, or environmental damage but the optics and mechanism underneath are still good — cover-only replacement saves the cost and downtime of a full unit swap.
Compatibility
Built specifically for the AXIS TQ1953-E pendant housing used with Axis PTZ camera heads. Confirm your installed unit is a TQ1953-E before ordering — top cover kits are housing-specific and not interchangeable across other Axis pendant or wall-mount housing series. If you're outfitting a new PTZ deployment rather than repairing an existing one, check the current PTZ cameras lineup and the broader Axis catalog for the housing generation that matches your camera head.
Installation Notes
Because the TQ1953-E housing is designed around PoE-powered PTZ heads, plan the cover swap as a brief service window rather than a live-network task — isolate power at the switch or injector before opening the housing. Pair this with a PoE switch review if you're already budgeting downtime for housing service, and consult a storage and retention guide if you're re-evaluating recording continuity during planned maintenance.
