Viking Electronics PNL-VCAM-2-BN Oil Rubbed Bronze Replacement Faceplate for VCAM-2

Overview

The PNL-VCAM-2-BN is a direct replacement faceplate for the Viking VCAM-2-BN single-gang wall camera — the part you need when a faceplate is damaged, vandalized, or being refreshed as part of a lobby or reception renovation. It matches the oil rubbed bronze finish of the VCAM-2-BN exactly, preserving visual continuity in environments where finish consistency matters. Constructed from 18 gauge 304 stainless steel, it handles the mechanical abuse of a high-traffic wall mount without flex or corrosion concerns. IP66 ingress protection means it holds up to direct water spray and dust intrusion — suitable for covered outdoor entry points or humid interior corridors, not just indoor lobbies.

Compatibility

Fits the Viking Electronics VCAM-2-BN only — the oil rubbed bronze variant of the single-gang wall camera line. This faceplate is finish-matched to the VCAM-2-BN and is not interchangeable with the brushed stainless steel VCAM-2-SS, which uses the PNL-VCAM-2-SS replacement instead. Standard single-gang electrical box mounting means it installs into any US-standard single-gang wall box already in place for the VCAM-2-BN — no adapter or modified rough-in required.

Installation Notes

Operating temperature range of -40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C) means this faceplate is appropriate for installations in unconditioned spaces — stairwells, mechanical rooms, and covered exterior entries where ambient temps swing hard. The existing VCAM-2-BN camera module and wiring stay in place during a faceplate swap; no re-termination needed. If the underlying camera wiring uses RG59/RG6 coax, the maximum cable run remains 750 ft; CAT5E runs remain limited to 150 ft — the faceplate replacement does not affect signal path constraints. For installations managed through a VMS or analog DVR, no reconfiguration is required after a faceplate-only swap.
