Geovision GV-MOUNT-81 Standard Pendant Mount
Overview
The GV-MOUNT-81 is a pendant-style mounting bracket designed for ceiling-suspended camera deployments in indoor environments. This accessory solves the installation problem of securing IP cameras to overhead structures where flush wall mounting is not an option — retail floors, hotel lobbies, warehouse aisles, and commercial corridors benefit from pendant suspension because it places the camera lens perpendicular to the floor and avoids wall obstructions. The integrated anti-drop safety mechanism provides mechanical redundancy, preventing accidental camera detachment during installation or maintenance.
Compatibility
The GV-MOUNT-81 is compatible with Geovision G-Series IP cameras requiring pendant suspension hardware. Compatible models include: GV-Mount112, GV-Mount115, GV-Mount211 series (211-4, 211-6, 211-8, 211-9, 211-11, 211-13, 211-14, 211-15), GV-Mount314, GV-Mount470, GV-Mount481, GV-Mount506 variants, GV-Mount507 variants, GV-Mount509, GV-Mount510, GV-Mount512, GV-Mount515, GV-Mount517, GV-Mount707, GV-Mount925, and GV-Mount927. Verify your camera model against the GeoVision G-Series installation guide before ordering.
Installation Notes
Pendant mounting is suitable for standard indoor ceiling installations where the camera is center-hung from overhead structure (suspended drop ceiling, structural beam, or custom canopy). The anti-drop feature requires proper engagement during installation — do not skip safety-mechanism verification. Tools and fasteners specific to your ceiling type (drywall anchors, lag bolts, or threaded rod) are not included; source these based on your overhead substrate. The optional GV-Mount707 extension is available for applications requiring longer pendant drops or additional standoff distance from the ceiling plane.
