The AXIS 216FD/216FD-V/216MFD/216MFD-V can be mounted with the cables routed

both sides of the dome cover. The AXIS 216FD-V/216MFD-V can also be fitted with a metal
conduit for protecting the cabling when connected via the side openings. See the
illustrations on page 4.
1. Using the drill template, drill two holes in the ceiling/wall.
2. Route and connect all the required cables. See Connect the cables, below.
3. Fasten the camera unit to a ceiling or wall, using screws and plugs appropriate for the
ceiling/wall material.
4. Ensure the camera is positioned so that the tamper-proof screws can be tightened using
the supplied screwdriver.
Mounting on a hard ceiling
To mount the AXIS 216FD/216FD-V/216MFD/216MFD-V on a hard ceiling, check that the
ceiling material is sturdy enough to hold the weight of the camera.
The camera can also be secured using a plate or board that better carries the weight of the
camera, and which is more suitable for securing the screws.
The AXIS 216FD/AXIS 216MFD can also be mounted using the AXIS 216FD/AXIS 216MFD
Drop Ceiling Mount, which allows the camera to be mounted more discreetly. Please see
www.axis.com for all available mounting accessories.
