Ubiquiti UACC-G5-PTZ-SM-B Ceiling Surface Mount Accessory
Overview
The UACC-G5-PTZ-SM-B is a ceiling surface mount bracket designed for Ubiquiti G5 PTZ cameras. This accessory solves the standard integration problem: deploying a pan-tilt-zoom camera directly to a finished ceiling without recessed housing, conduit threading, or pendant mounting complexity. Use this when your ceiling is plaster, suspended tile, or drywall and you need the PTZ mounted flush to the surface with a clean, minimal footprint. The bracket secures the camera body and pan-tilt mechanism while keeping cable routing straightforward — typical for retail ceilings, office atriums, and warehouse overheads where aesthetics and fast installation matter.
Compatibility
This mount is engineered for Ubiquiti's G5 PTZ camera line. Before ordering, confirm your specific G5 PTZ model matches Ubiquiti's current G5 PTZ family specifications. The bracket is designed for surface-mount scenarios only — do not use for recessed, pendant, or wall-mount configurations. Verify that your ceiling material and thickness support standard fastening (typically wood screws or anchors into drywall/plaster). If your installation involves metal studs, suspended ceiling grid, or specialty materials, consult your integrator or Ubiquiti installation documentation to confirm fastening compatibility.
Installation Notes
Mount the bracket directly to ceiling surface using appropriate fasteners for your substrate (wood screws for wood, toggle bolts or anchors for drywall). Ensure the ceiling can support the combined weight of the bracket and camera body. Route network and power cables (PoE typically) through existing conduit, cable tray, or ceiling plenum before final bracket installation — cable access after mounting is limited. Allow adequate clearance below the camera for pan-tilt articulation; verify no light fixtures, HVAC diffusers, or structural elements block movement. Torque fasteners firmly but do not over-tighten, as stress concentration can crack ceiling material.
