Hanwha SBP-300CMTW Telescopic Ceiling Mount
The SBP-300CMTW is a professional aluminum telescopic ceiling mount designed to bridge variable ceiling heights in retail, warehouse, and office environments without structural compromise. Built to support up to 20 kg (44 lbs), this mount handles mid-range and larger Hanwha IP cameras and compatible accessories securely. The telescopic tube extends from 956.5 mm to 1,667.5 mm (approximately 3 ft to 5 ft), eliminating the need to stock multiple fixed-length mounts across your deployment footprint.
Key Features
- Telescopic Extension 956.5–1,667.5 mm: Covers most commercial ceiling heights (8–16 ft) without custom fabrication or multiple SKUs. Adjustability reduces inventory complexity and speeds field installation.
- 20 kg (44 lbs) Load Capacity: Safely handles standard Hanwha dome and turret cameras plus accessories like pendant housings or environmental enclosures. Verify your complete assembly weight before mount selection.
- Aluminum Construction with White Powder Coat (RAL9003): Corrosion-resistant finish stands up to humid warehouses, retail environments, and light spray; UV-stable white blends into drop ceilings and light-colored surfaces for lower visual profile than polished steel alternatives.
- M25 Conduit Access Hole (3/4" equivalent): Routes network and power cables vertically into building infrastructure without external cable trays, reducing trip hazards and maintaining a cleaner visual footprint in customer-facing areas.
- TR30 Fastening Specification: Requires TR30 Torx socket for secure mounting into ceiling structure. Verify ceiling composition (drywall anchors, joist bolts, threaded inserts) during rough-in to avoid field delays.
- Compact 180 mm Base Diameter: Minimal ceiling penetration footprint and recessed plenum compatibility; tight fit in drop-ceiling modules without edge overhang that could catch or snag during installation.
Integration & Compatibility
The SBP-300CMTW accommodates Hanwha hanging adaptors (SBP-120HMW, SBP-140HMW, SBP-160HMW1, SBP-180HMW1) which connect to camera mounting threads. Pipe extensions (SBP-C15P, SBP-150CMP, SBP-300CMP, SBP-900CMP) allow further vertical adjustment or accessory stacking. Verify your specific camera model's foot threading and adaptor compatibility before ordering. Total assembly weight is 3,750 g (8.27 lbs)—subtract this from your 20 kg budget when calculating available camera + housing capacity.
For facilities deploying mixed camera types across multiple buildings, ensure all models use compatible mounting threads; mismatched adaptors require re-engineering during maintenance. Consult a mounting accessories compatibility chart if your deployment includes legacy or third-party camera models.
Deployment Considerations
Ceiling height variation is common in older warehouses and retrofit office spaces—the telescopic design eliminates scheduling multiple install visits or maintaining separate short- and long-mount SKUs. Cable routing through the M25 conduit hole supports organized plenum runs, essential in facilities where cable inspectors or FM/insurance audits verify fire code compliance.
The white finish is a deliberate choice for neutral environments; if you require black or stainless finishes for aesthetic consistency or corrosion resistance in salt-spray facilities, contact manufacturer support for alternate coating options.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the maximum total weight I can mount on the SBP-300CMTW?
A: The mount supports 20 kg (44 lbs) total. This includes the camera, adaptor, any environmental housing, and cabling. The mount itself weighs 3.75 kg, so your camera + accessories budget is approximately 16.25 kg. Verify actual component weights before deployment.
Q: Can I extend the SBP-300CMTW beyond 1,667.5 mm?
A: The specified range is fixed at 956.5–1,667.5 mm. For ceilings taller than approximately 5 ft 6 in., use a longer pipe extension (SBP-900CMP) in combination with the mount. Consult the compatibility matrix for extension stacking limits.
Q: Does the SBP-300CMTW come with fasteners for my ceiling type?
A: The mount requires TR30 Torx fastening hardware matched to your ceiling material (drywall anchors, joist bolts, concrete inserts). These are not included. Specify ceiling type (drywall, suspended grid, concrete, wood) when ordering to ensure correct hardware is sourced separately.
Q: Is the white finish suitable for outdoor or wet environments?
A: The RAL9003 powder coat is UV-stable and corrosion-resistant indoors and light moisture; it is not rated for full outdoor, salt-spray, or submersion duty. For exterior or high-humidity installations (pools, coastal facilities), request stainless-steel or black epoxy alternatives from the manufacturer.
Q: Can I use the SBP-300CMTW with non-Hanwha cameras?
A: The mount's adaptor ecosystem is designed for Hanwha cameras. Third-party cameras require compatible metric threading or custom adaptor plates. Verify thread pitch (typically M4 or M6) on your target camera before deployment.
Q: What's the load distribution if I use the SBP-300CMTW at maximum extension?
A: The 20 kg capacity is valid across the entire adjustment range. However, longer extensions (closer to 1,667.5 mm) increase lateral sway under vibration or wind. If deploying near HVAC vents or building movement, prioritize lower extensions or add supplementary bracing.

The SBP-300CMTW eliminates a persistent friction point in ceiling-mounted deployments: height variability. Rather than stocking three or four fixed-length mounts or fabricating custom risers, the telescopic design (956.5–1,667.5 mm) covers most commercial real estate without special orders. In a 40-camera retrofit across a warehouse with 12-ft ceilings in the bay and 10-ft in the office wing, that flexibility cuts procurement cycles and inventory waste.
Technical Highlights:
- 20 kg Load Ceiling: Accommodates Hanwha's mid-range domes and turrets with standard environmental housings, but forces a hard cap decision—exceeding 20 kg voids mounting integrity. Weigh your full camera + adaptor + housing stack before ordering, because field over-capacity repairs are expensive and dangerous.
- M25 Conduit Access: Routes cables vertically into plenum infrastructure rather than across drop-ceiling surfaces or down exterior walls. In retail and food-service environments where cable appearance or food-contact zones matter, this drives compliance and reduces snag/trip liability.
- 180 mm Base Footprint: Fits standard 24-inch drop-ceiling tiles without overhang, critical for facilities audits and renovations where future ceiling grid changes or acoustic panel replacements can't be obstructed by mount hardware.
Deployment Considerations:
- TR30 fastening is hardware-specific; mismatched socket sizes in the field are common. Pre-stage fastener kits matched to your ceiling type (drywall anchors, concrete inserts, joist bolts) to avoid installer improvisation on-site.
- RAL9003 white is interior-rated; salt-spray or submersion duty requires manufacturer-approved finishes. Verify environmental classification before deploying near coastal facilities, humidifiers, or spray-wash zones.
- Long extensions (1,667.5 mm) near HVAC returns or building sway points can induce lateral movement under vibration—stress-test the assembly before camera mount if thermal or mechanical cycling is expected.
The SBP-300CMTW is purpose-built for integrators managing mixed-height deployments in retail, logistics, and corporate campuses. If all your ceilings are uniform height, a fixed-length mount saves money. If ceiling variation is real, this telescopic design reduces logistics overhead and field rework.
