Universal Junction Box for Bullet Security Camera, Plastic Waterproof Junction Box Mount Bracket, Indoor/Outdoor Wall Ceiling Mount Hide Cable Junction Base Boxes for Reolink Solar Panel (4pcs)

holes don't line up to reolink security camera

Needed some conduit boxes to go along with the installation of several Reolink 4K Turret cameras [RLC-820A] (not bullets which is what these are designed for). I did not pay attention to the compatibility description until they arrived and I attempted to install, but thankfully they still ended up working out with a small amount of effort. These are cheaper, smaller in size, and plastic vs metal as opposed to the proper box (Reolink D20) but will fit if you offset screws at an angle before securing the camera. Once that is complete, moderate force to the screws secured the camera sub-base to the lid of the box. It also includes gaskets that can be slit to allow the wiring through and maintain a moderate amount of ingress protection. These are not fully sealed like the metal ones are but I’m installing under eaves and not *that* concerned. The only major issue I ran into was the main cable gland of the cameras not fitting into the box (too long). I opted not to use it at all and instead dielectric greased the Ethernet connector for similar moisture protection. When installed, these boxes are fairly cramped for wiring space, but when coiled correctly it fits with no kinking whatsoever. The top plate slides off of the box about ½” and lifts up with a set screw securing it together.

This plastic junction box doesn’t fit my camera at all, so installation was impossible. It also has no waterproof gasket or seal, so it can’t actually be used outdoors. Poor design and not what the listing suggests. Definitely not suitable for outdoor camera use.

Does the job for Ubiquiti G5 Turret Cameras or any other with a small base. Great price compared to the $49 official junction box on Ubiquiti’s website. Would not trust the water resistance but it is not fully exposed in my application.

It’s really done it’s job, perfect match with the existing round Non-Metallic Weatherproof Box, and help me to finish the dome’s camera installation quick.
