Aigis Mechtronics releases the Vandal Resistant Recessed Mount Dome designed to offer a a compact, unobtrusive package.

The majority of this unit mounts into a wall or ceiling with only the small, 3.9-inch polycarbonate dome exposed. The back box is small enough to mount directly into a 2 x 2-inch electrical box or on its own using a specially designed dust cover that guards against dust and ensures the unit’s plenum rating.
