Accessoires pour caméras de sécurité

Compatibility depends on the specific security camera or security recorder (NVR or DVR) you’re using. Accessories like mounts, junction boxes, cables, PoE switches, and security grade hard drives vary by model, so it’s important to choose items that match your device’s connection type and installation needs. Always check the compatibility details listed on the accessory page or your device’s product specifications to ensure the accessory is supported and will deliver reliable performance.

Lorex wired security cameras use different cables depending on the system. IP cameras use Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables for PoE power and data, while analog cameras use RG59 Siamese BNC cables for video and power.

Yes — but you must use direct-burial-rated Cat6 cable without conduit, or standard outdoor-rated Cat6 enclosed within PVC or metal conduit. This protects the cable from moisture, soil pressure, rodents, and environmental wear.

Security systems require surveillance-grade hard drives. These drives are designed for continuous 24/7 recording, high write endurance, and long service life. Regular desktop drives are not suitable for constant video capture.

Always check your recorder’s specifications for maximum supported capacity.

For best performance, use a security grade microSD card designed for security recording. Larger cards allow you to store more video clips and extend the amount of history your camera can keep.

You need a PoE switch when: 

• Your NVR doesn’t have enough built-in PoE ports  
• You want to place cameras farther from the recorder 
• You need multiple connection points in different areas of your property 

PoE switches supply power and data over one Ethernet cable, making them essential for large homes, multi-building setups, or 32-channel systems where only 16 ports are built in. 

Coax-to-Ethernet adapters allow you to reuse older coaxial wiring and convert it to Ethernet for IP cameras. This is ideal for upgrading from DVR systems to NVR systems without re-running new cables through walls.

Choose a junction box that matches your camera’s mounting pattern (3-screw or 4-screw), preferred shape (round or square), and color (white or black to match your camera). Junction boxes help conceal and protect wiring while providing a cleaner, more secure, and weather-resistant installation.

You may want a special mount if you need improved camera placement, wider field of view, or support for challenging surfaces like poles, corners, or ceilings. These mounts help optimize coverage and give your installation a clean, professional look.

Yes. Lorex solar panels provide continuous, energy-efficient charging for compatible battery-powered cameras, helping keep them running year-round with minimal maintenance. They’re also a great option for harder-to-reach installation areas, since you won’t need to take the camera down or remove the battery for charging.

Yes. You can pair multiple doorbell chimeboxes throughout your home, ensuring you hear the doorbell camera on different floors or in distant rooms — even if your phone isn’t nearby.

Lightbulb socket extenders (available in 64mm and 96mm) help lower or reposition your lightbulb camera for better viewing angles under fixtures, eaves, or covered areas.

You can find compatibility information on the product pages for your camera, recorder, or the accessory itself. Checking these details ensures the accessory matches your device’s power, connection, and mounting requirements for proper performance and reliability.

Absolutely. Using surveillance-grade storage, certified cabling, proper mounts, weatherproof junction boxes, and PoE switches ensures stable power, clearer video, and long-lasting performance — especially in critical 24/7 security applications.

Yes. Junction boxes, corner mounts, pole mounts, and cable extenders keep wiring organized, concealed, and protected — giving your installation a more professional appearance.
