Hanwha SBP-150CMI Aluminum Ceiling Mount
The SBP-150CMI is a compact aluminum ceiling mount engineered for flush installation of Hanwha hanging adaptors in professional surveillance deployments. Its small footprint and durable construction address a common pain point in system design: ceiling voids that demand minimal visual footprint without compromising mechanical stability.
Key Features
- Aluminum construction with RAL9003 white finish: Corrosion-resistant material means the mount won't degrade in humid environments (warehouses, food production, moisture-prone retail spaces) or under standard indoor climate control. White finish blends into most ceiling tile grids, reducing visual clutter in spaces where camera visibility is a concern.
- Compact circular footprint (ø140 x 155mm): The small 140mm diameter footprint fits into standard 600mm acoustic ceiling tile grids and recessed plenums without requiring custom duct or structural modifications. This matters for retrofit deployments where you can't relocate HVAC or electrical runs.
- Lightweight design at 520g (1.15 lbs): Low weight eliminates the need for additional support structure or threaded rod reinforcement. Standard ceiling mounting hardware handles installation without stress on building infrastructure — important for tenant spaces where landlord consent for structural work is difficult to obtain.
- M10 screw mounting: Provides a robust mechanical interface for hanging adaptors. M10 threading is common across Hanwha hanging adaptor models, reducing SKU complexity in multi-camera system rollouts.
- Compatible with SBP-120HMW, SBP-140HMW, SBP-160HMW1, and SBP-180HMW1 hanging adaptors: The SBP-150CMI (often searched as SBP 150CMI) supports Hanwha's full range of compact hanging adaptors, allowing you to standardize on a single ceiling mount form factor across multiple camera types in the same installation.
Integration & Compatibility
The SBP-150CMI is designed for use with Hanwha pendant-style camera installations. Verify that your selected hanging adaptor model (SBP-120HMW, SBP-140HMW, SBP-160HMW1, or SBP-180HMW1) matches your camera platform before ordering. The M10 screw interface is straightforward — no adapters or intermediate plates required — but ceiling mounting requires appropriate anchors for your building material (drywall, concrete, or tile grid).
Deployment Considerations
This mount is purpose-built for discreet ceiling installations in retail, office, and institutional environments where flush mounting is non-negotiable. The compact design assumes standard drop-ceiling or exposed-plenum conditions; if your ceiling void is shallower than 155mm, verify clearance for the adaptor assembly before purchase. For permanently mounted systems, the aluminum construction and corrosion-resistant finish mean minimal maintenance — no repainting or protective coatings needed over a 5–10 year service window.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the SBP-150CMI fit into standard 600mm x 600mm acoustic ceiling tiles?
A: Yes. The ø140mm diameter footprint fits standard modular ceiling grids without modification, though you will need to cut or notch the tile to accommodate the mount assembly. A standard drywall or tile saw handles this in minutes.
Q: What type of ceiling anchors do I need?
A: The mount uses M10 screw mounting. For drywall ceilings, use M10 threaded anchors or toggle bolts rated for your ceiling material's weight-bearing capacity. For concrete or recessed grid plenums, M10 expansion anchors or threaded inserts are appropriate. Hardware is not included — select anchors based on your specific ceiling construction.
Q: Can I use the SBP-150CMI with non-Hanwha hanging adaptors?
A: No. The SBP-150CMI is designed specifically for Hanwha hanging adaptors (SBP-120HMW, SBP-140HMW, SBP-160HMW1, SBP-180HMW1) with M10 screw interfaces. Cross-brand adaptor compatibility is not supported.
Q: Is the white RAL9003 finish available in other colors?
A: The SBP-150CMI is manufactured in RAL9003 white only. If your ceiling is a different color, consider paint matching after installation or consult the Hanwha catalog for alternative mount models if available.
Q: How is the SBP-150CMI mounted to the ceiling?
A: The mount attaches via M10 screws into ceiling anchors. The assembly is flush-mounted (no pendant arm) — the hanging adaptor attaches directly to the M10 screw interface on the mount. Installation requires appropriate ceiling anchors for your building material and basic hand tools.

The SBP-150CMI is a straightforward mechanical component, but its compact ø140 x 155mm footprint solves a real problem in dense ceiling environments: you need to fit a camera mount into a standard 600mm grid without cutting through structural members or relocating electrical/HVAC. The 520g weight and aluminum construction keep installation labor minimal — no special rigging, no additional reinforcement.
Technical Highlights:
- ø140mm circular footprint: Fits standard modular ceiling grids without structural modification. Smaller than most pendant mounts, reducing visual prominence in office and retail spaces where aesthetics matter.
- M10 screw interface: Direct mechanical coupling to Hanwha hanging adaptors (SBP-120HMW through SBP-180HMW1) — no adapters, no loose components. Rigid connection means zero vibration transmission to the hanging adaptor assembly.
- RAL9003 white finish with corrosion-resistant aluminum: No repainting, no protective coatings, no degradation in humid facilities (warehouses, food processing). The finish stays stable over a 5–10 year deployment window with zero maintenance.
Deployment Considerations:
- Verify your ceiling void depth is at least 155mm from tile surface to structure. Shallow drop ceilings or prefab grid systems may have insufficient clearance for the full adaptor assembly.
- M10 anchors are not included — you must source and install appropriate ceiling hardware for your specific building material (drywall, concrete, gypsum board, metal grid). Factor 15–30 minutes per mount for anchor installation and tile notching.
Position the SBP-150CMI for retrofit deployments in existing retail, office, and institutional facilities where you need a discreet, low-profile ceiling mount without custom fabrication. The standardized M10 interface and corrosion-resistant finish make it a solid choice for multi-site rollouts using Hanwha hanging adaptors across similar ceiling infrastructure.
