GeoVision GV-Mount104 Ceiling Mount for Network Camera
The GeoVision GV-Mount104 Ceiling Mount for Network Camera is the discreet, high-strength mounting solution you need to deploy reliable surveillance in any indoor environment. Engineered to support GeoVision GV-series IP cameras with precision, this ceiling mount delivers rock-solid stability, clean cable management, and flexible positioning that helps you capture the exact field of view required for detailed security monitoring. Whether you’re outfitting a busy retail space, a corporate office, a school, or a healthcare facility, the GV-Mount104 blends practical durability with a low-profile design that stays out of the way while ensuring cameras stay perfectly oriented. By combining robust construction, thoughtful adjustability, and streamlined installation, this mount makes it easy to upgrade or expand your video surveillance system without compromising aesthetics or performance.
What sets the GV-Mount104 apart is its focus on real-world installation needs. The ceiling-mounted design reduces tampering risks and keeps cameras elevated for optimal coverage, while a precise mounting plate supports a broad range of lens configurations and camera sizes. The unit’s powder-coated finish not only resists scuffs and scratches but also complements typical interior decors, helping it blend with ceiling tiles, drywall, or grid systems. With its adaptable geometry, the GV-Mount104 accommodates ceiling heights of various buildings and provides enough clearance for power and data cables to run cleanly into the camera housing. For installers, this translates to shorter deployment times, fewer compatibility headaches, and a tighter, more professional finish that looks as good as it performs.
- Secure compatibility and flexible mounting — The GV-Mount104 is designed to support GeoVision GV-series network cameras with a universal mounting plate that accommodates multiple lens configurations and sensor sizes. This versatility ensures a stable, vibration-resistant platform that maintains precise alignment even in high-traffic environments. The ceiling-mount design provides a low-profile silhouette suitable for corridors, retail aisles, control rooms, and office spaces, enabling technicians to adjust pan, tilt, and rotation for optimal coverage. The mounting system is compatible with standard ceiling structures, including reinforced ceilings, and accelerates installation with a robust fastener-ready interface that minimizes the need for extra adapters. This combination of compatibility and adaptability reduces downtime and simplifies future camera upgrades, making it a reliable long-term solution for growing security needs.
- Durable construction with a low-profile, professional finish — Built for daily use in busy environments, the GV-Mount104 employs a sturdy aluminum alloy body with a durable powder-coated finish that resists wear, scuffs, and cosmetic damage over time. Its slim, unobtrusive profile ensures the camera remains the focal point of surveillance rather than the mounting hardware, preserving interior aesthetics in stores, offices, and public facilities. The robust enclosure protects critical mounting points from dust, tampering, and accidental impact, while maintaining access to essential adjustment features. This thoughtful build quality translates into fewer maintenance calls and a longer service life, which lowers total cost of ownership for commercial deployments.
- Cable management and clean aesthetics — A key advantage of the GV-Mount104 is its built-in route for cables that channels video, power, and network lines neatly from the ceiling into the camera housing. This reduces visible clutter and minimizes the risk of cables snagging or being unplugged during normal activity. The clean routing also makes post-install adjustments easier and supports more professional, vandal-resistant installations by keeping cables shielded and out of sight. For environments where appearance matters, such as retail storefronts or corporate lobbies, the cable management capability helps maintain a tidy, professional look without compromising accessibility for maintenance or firmware updates.
- Effortless installation and precise adjustability — The GV-Mount104 is designed with installer-friendly features that speed up deployment and ensure long-term accuracy. The mount supports straightforward attachment to ceiling structures with clear alignment guides, and its tilt/pan adjustment range allows precise positioning to capture the intended field of view. Once installed, fine-tuning the camera angle is quick and repeatable, reducing the likelihood of rework. Whether you’re mounting a single camera or scaling to multiple locations, the GV-Mount104 provides repeatable, reliable performance that helps security teams respond faster to incidents and maintain high-quality video footage for investigations and monitoring.

How to Install GeoVision GV-Mount104 Ceiling Mount for Network Camera
Note: Use appropriate safety procedures when working above ceilings and ensure electrical power is turned off for any work near live cables. Verify your building structure can support the added weight of the mount and camera, and follow local codes for ceiling installations.
1) Plan the mounting location — Identify a safe, structurally sound ceiling area with unobstructed lines of sight to the surveillance zone. Confirm that the chosen location can support the combined weight of the GV-Mount104 and the camera. Measure and mark the ceiling for the mounting plate alignment, keeping in mind cable routing paths.
2) Prepare the ceiling and hardware — Access the ceiling space and ensure there is a solid mounting surface (joist or suitable structure). Gather the mounting hardware included with the GV-Mount104 and any additional anchors appropriate for your ceiling type. If necessary, pre-install a conduit or cable channel to protect and route power and data cables from the ceiling to the camera location.
3) Attach the mount to the ceiling — Secure the GV-Mount104 to the ceiling with the provided hardware, ensuring the mounting plate is level and properly anchored. Double-check that all fasteners are tightened to specification and that the mount remains stable under light manual manipulation. The goal is a rigid platform that maintains camera alignment over time, even with minor vibrations or seasonal building movement.
4) Attach the camera to the mounting plate — Mount the GeoVision IP camera to the GV-Mount104’s universal plate, following the camera’s mounting pattern. Tighten the securing screws evenly to avoid tilting or offset, and ensure the camera is oriented toward the target surveillance area. If the camera includes any quick-release mechanisms, verify that they lock securely and won’t loosen during normal operation.
5) Route cables and adjust positioning — Run video, power, and network cables through the mount’s internal channels, then into the camera housing. Seal or conceal any cables as needed to maintain a clean appearance and reduce exposure to tampering. Use the tilt, pan, and rotation controls to set the camera angle precisely for the desired field of view. Perform a final test by viewing live streams to confirm framing, focus, and exposure, making minor adjustments as necessary for optimal coverage.
