PTZOptics PT-CM-1 Universal Camera Ceiling Mount

The PT-CM-1 is the standard-base ceiling mount: two steel plates, one that fixes above the ceiling line and one that carries the camera, so a PTZ head hangs inverted below a tile with the cabling and the hardware out of sight. Inverted mounting is the normal way to cover a congregation or a classroom from the front of the room without a camera on a stand in someone's sightline.

The camera attaches with a universal 1/4-20 screw, so it is not locked to one camera line. It is steel, made in the USA, and offered in black or white powder coat so it can either read as equipment or disappear into a white ceiling. Note this is the standard-base mount; the largest PTZOptics heads (Move 4K 30X and Link 4K 30X) use the PT-CM-3 instead.
