Hanwha SBP-050PMW Pole Mount Bracket
Overview
The Hanwha SBP-050PMW is a lightweight aluminum pole and wall mount engineered to support mid-range IP cameras and compact surveillance hardware in mixed outdoor and indoor deployment scenarios. At 473 grams, the bracket itself won't overload your conduit or structural anchors, yet it handles up to 15 kg of camera equipment reliably. Built for integrators managing multi-site installs where pole-mounted and wall-mounted cameras coexist, the SBP-050PMW eliminates the need to stock separate hardware for different mounting surfaces.
Key Features
- Aluminum Construction with RAL 9003 White Powder Coat: Corrosion resistance matters in outdoor and semi-outdoor deployments. Aluminum resists rust and salt-spray degradation far better than steel alone, while the white RAL 9003 powder coating reduces thermal absorption in direct sunlight — a genuine advantage where extended daylight exposure can cause fastener stress and expansion cycling. This translates to longer intervals between re-tightening and fewer nuisance maintenance calls.
- 15 kg Load Capacity: This weight limit accommodates most mid-range IP cameras, compact PTZ units (under 10 kg), and associated mounting hardware without exceeding safe limits. If your camera and integrated bracket exceed this threshold, you'll need an industrial-grade pole mount from a heavier-duty product line.
- Pole and Wall Mounting in One Unit: The same bracket works on vertical poles (1.5" to 2.5" OD typical) and flat wall surfaces. For integrators managing warehouses, retail storefronts, or mixed-use facilities, this dual capability reduces part SKU complexity and inventory carrying costs. One purchase covers both mounting scenarios.
- M25 / 3/4" Conduit Opening: Standard metric and imperial conduit threads mean you won't need adapter sleeves. Run protective conduit directly through the mount for cable management — essential for code compliance in most jurisdictions and protects cable jackets from UV and mechanical abrasion. Cleaner installs also simplify troubleshooting and future relocation.
- Integrated Steel Cable Straps: Included cable management ties keep power, network, and auxiliary video leads organized and prevent wind-induced cable whip or accidental snagging. Neat cable routing also speeds maintenance and reduces the visual clutter that can be problematic on customer-facing sites.
- Compact Form Factor (140.84 x 185.84 x 55.5 mm): The low-profile design minimizes wind load and visual prominence on building facades or retail frontage where aesthetics are a factor alongside security function. Smaller envelope also means easier positioning in space-constrained locations like building corners or narrow utility areas.
Integration and Mounting Considerations
The SBP-050PMW is designed to mount the Hanwha SBP-050NBW camera. Before ordering, confirm your camera includes a compatible quick-release or bracket interface — not all Hanwha IP cameras use identical attachment patterns. Standard M4 fasteners secure the camera to the bracket; if your camera doesn't include mounting screws, source them separately.
For multi-camera pole deployments, verify pole diameter (the bracket accommodates 1.5" to 2.5" OD) and assess load distribution if stacking multiple brackets vertically. In high-wind zones or tall mast installations, consult a structural engineer or your site safety team to confirm pole capacity and add supplementary tie-down lugs if needed.
When to Consider an Alternative
If your total mounted weight exceeds 15 kg, step up to an industrial pole mount with higher load ratings. For pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera deployments requiring motorized positioning, seek a dedicated PTZ mount or rotator-equipped bracket from the extended Hanwha accessory line. If your site requires wall-only installation with no pole integration, a simpler fixed wall bracket may reduce cost. For perimeter or high-wind applications, consider reinforced mounts with additional cross-bracing or anchor lugs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the SBP-050PMW mount to a standard 2" schedule-40 steel pole?
A: Yes. The bracket fits poles with 1.5" to 2.5" outer diameter. A standard 2" schedule-40 pole falls within this range. Confirm pole diameter with a caliper before final installation.
Q: Is the bracket stainless steel or just aluminum?
A: The SBP-050PMW is aluminum with RAL 9003 white powder coating. Powder coat provides corrosion resistance, but for maximum salt-spray protection (coastal environments), consider verifying the coating thickness or consulting with your Hanwha integrator partner for supplementary protective measures.
Q: Does the bracket include fasteners and mounting hardware?
A: The bracket includes steel cable straps for cable management. Confirm with your supplier whether M4 camera mounting screws, U-bolts, or pole-clamp hardware are included in your order, as these may ship separately or be sold as optional accessories.
Q: Can I use the SBP-050PMW for a camera heavier than 15 kg?
A: No. The 15 kg load limit is a safety and structural limit. Exceeding it risks bracket deformation, fastener shear, or pole failure in wind load conditions. For heavier cameras, select an industrial mount with higher ratings.
Q: What is the maximum wind load the SBP-050PMW can handle?
A: The 15 kg static load capacity is separate from dynamic wind rating. For installations in high-wind zones (hurricane, coastal areas), consult with a structural engineer to assess cumulative wind pressure on the pole, bracket, and mounted camera assembly.

The SBP-050PMW is a straightforward mounting solution for integrators who need to deploy the same bracket across pole and wall scenarios without stocking two separate SKUs. The 15 kg load limit and M25 conduit opening are where the real deployment value sits — you avoid adapter sleeves and the bracket will support most cameras in the mid-range IP surveillance space without strain.
Technical Highlights:
- 473 g Weight: Light enough that you won't need additional structural reinforcement on typical poles or wall mounts, yet the aluminum body doesn't sacrifice rigidity or longevity in salt-spray or high-UV environments.
- RAL 9003 White Powder Coat: Reduces thermal stress on fasteners and hardware compared to raw aluminum or black paint in full-sun deployments; meaningful over multi-year installation lifecycles where expansion cycling can loosen connections.
- Dual Pole/Wall Capability: One part number eliminates confusion for installers managing mixed-site environments. No more picking the wrong bracket when you're staging hardware for a multi-location roll-out.
Deployment Considerations:
- The 15 kg limit is real — don't exceed it. Heavier PTZ units or dual-camera assemblies require a step up to industrial mounts.
- In high-wind zones, the static 15 kg rating doesn't account for dynamic wind load. Always confirm pole capacity and structural limits with an engineer before final sign-off.
- The M25 conduit opening assumes standard metric or 3/4" imperial threads. Non-standard pole diameters or irregular surfaces will require adapters not included with this bracket.
The SBP-050PMW works best for retail storefronts, office buildings, or warehouse facilities where you're mounting mid-range Hanwha cameras on poles or walls without extreme environmental stress or oversized payloads. It's a solid utilitarian choice that reduces integrator inventory and covers most standard deployment patterns.
