• PFA130-E junction box
• 4 × M4×10 screws (camera to box)
• 3 × ST4×25 screws (box to wall or ceiling)
• 3 × plastic anchors
• S3.0 wrench
• Mounting sticker

• A compatible Dahua camera
• Network cable to the camera
• A G3/4 water joint or conduit fitting, if the cable comes in through a side outlet

01

Check the camera

Confirm your camera model is on Dahua's PFA130-E list, and decide whether the cable comes through the surface behind the box or along it to a side outlet.

02

Fix the box

Mark the three fixing holes (on an 84 mm circle), drill, then screw the box to the wall or ceiling with the ST4×25 screws and plastic anchors.

03

Bring in the cable

Feed the cable in from behind, or open a side outlet and fit a G3/4 water joint or conduit, then pass it out through the centre grommet to the camera.

04

Mount the camera

Make the connections, tuck the spare cable into the box, fix the camera base to the box face with the M4×10 screws, then aim it.

Camera

Dahua IPC-HFW3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 bullet

Its Dahua datasheet names the PFA130-E as its junction box. So do the HFW3867E-AS-IL and the AcuPick kits built on it.

Pole

DH-AC-PFA152-E pole mount

Dahua's camera datasheets list the PFA130-E together with the PFA152-E when the camera goes on a post.

Corner

DH-AC-PFA151 corner mount

Listed with the PFA130-E on the HFW3867E-AS-IL and HFW5442EP-ZE datasheets for mounting on an outside corner.

Black version

DH-AC-PFA130-E-B junction box

The same box in black, for black cameras such as the HFW3849T1P-AS-PV-S3-BLK.

Eaves and soffits

Hold a bullet under the eaves with the cable joins inside a sealed box, not loose in the roof space.

Brick and block walls

Where the cable can't be hidden in the wall, run conduit to a side outlet.

Driveways and gates

A tidy, weatherproof mount for a camera covering the drive or front gate.

Warehouses and yards

Wall cameras on concrete and steel, with surface conduit to the box.

Shopfronts and car parks

Neat bullet mounts over entries and parking areas.

Posts and corners

With the PFA152-E pole mount or PFA151 corner mount behind it, the box goes on a post or an outside corner.

Which cameras fit the PFA130-E?

Dahua's datasheets list it for many of its bullets, including the HFW3849T1-AS-PV, HFW3549T1, HFW3866TP-ZAS, HFW3867E-AS-IL and HFW5442EP-ZE, the HDW2831TMP turret, and the AcuPick B and BD kits. The full list is in the Works with box.

Is a camera included?

No. This listing is the junction box with 4 M4×10 screws, 3 ST4×25 screws, 3 plastic anchors, an S3.0 wrench and a mounting sticker. The camera is sold separately.

How big is it?

Φ124.3 × 41.0 mm and 0.34 kg, from Dahua's 2025 datasheet.

How much weight will it hold?

3.0 kg, according to Dahua's datasheet. Check your camera's weight on its own datasheet before you mount it.

Is it waterproof?

Dahua rates the PFA130-E IP66. Keep unused outlets capped, use a G3/4 water joint on any outlet you open, and seal the wall entry.

Is a water joint included?

No, Dahua's packing list for the PFA130-E has no water joint. The HFW3867E-AS-IL datasheet lists the G3416GW G3/4 water joint as a separate accessory.

What thread are the outlets?

G3/4, according to Dahua's datasheet and drawing. Check that your conduit fitting or gland matches before you buy it.

How is it fixed?

Through three holes on an 84 mm circle, with the ST4×25 screws and plastic anchors supplied, or fixings that suit your surface.

Can I put it on a pole or a corner?

Yes, with a pole or corner mount behind it. Dahua's camera datasheets list the PFA130-E with the PFA152-E pole mount and the PFA151 corner mount.

Is there a black version?

Yes, the DH-AC-PFA130-E-B is the same box in black, for black cameras.

What temperatures can it handle?

Dahua rates it for −40 °C to +60 °C and humidity under 90% RH.

What is the difference from the PFA5300R?

Both are IP66, G3/4 and rated for 3 kg. The PFA130-E is 41.0 mm deep with a 48.4 mm square and 56, 70 and 84 mm camera hole patterns for Dahua bullets. The PFA5300R is 44.9 mm deep, comes with a water joint and is listed for a multi-sensor camera. Use the one your camera's datasheet names.
