The SBO-140BW is a back-box designed to be used with bullet-type surveillance cameras. A “back box” is essentially the junction enclosure behind (or beneath) the camera, where cables, connectors, and sometimes supporting electronics are housed. The back-box serves several purposes:

• Provides a clean, dedicated cavity for cable management (junction box).

• Improves the weatherproofing of the camera installation by reducing exposed connectors.

• Adds structural support and aesthetic finish to the mounting.

According to SAC Egypt’s product page, the SBO-140BW is made of aluminum, is white in color (RAL9003), and the physical dimensions are Ø143 × 50.8 mm, with a weight of ~ 420 g. SAC Distribution Center The mounting screw size is TR20. SAC Distribution Center

Here is a summary of the main technical specs from the SAC Egypt listing:

These specifications make it well suited for typical bullet camera installations where a compact, strong housing is needed.

Here are the main advantages and selling points of the SBO-140BW back-box:

5.1 Protection & Weather Resistance

By housing cable terminations within the box, the system is better protected from moisture, dust, insects, and tampering.

5.2 Clean Cable Management

The box allows installers to neatly conceal splices, connectors, and cable fanning, improving aesthetics and minimizing cable exposure.

5.3 Structural Support

It adds rigidity and support to the mounting of the bullet camera, helping align and secure the camera firmly.

5.4 Material & Finish

Being made of aluminum gives it durability and corrosion resistance. The white finish (RAL9003) often blends well in urban settings and helps reflect some solar heat.

5.5 Standard Mounting Compatibility

With a TR20 mount screw size, it’s compatible with standard mounts and accessories used in bullet camera systems, reducing compatibility issues.

5.6 Light Weight

At ~420 g, it’s light enough to avoid overloading mount supports, while still providing robust protection.

5.7 Ease of Installation

Its compact, cylindrical shape keeps installation simple and quick without large bulky enclosures.

The SBO-140BW is versatile and applicable in multiple surveillance scenarios, including:

• Outdoor perimeter monitoring (walls, fences)

• Parking lots and driveways

• Building façades and exteriors

• Retail store exteriors or entrances

• Any environment where a bullet camera must be mounted, and wiring needs to be concealed

In larger CCTV projects, using a back-box like this helps reduce entry points into structures and prevents unauthorized exposure of wiring.

When comparing the SBO-140BW to generic or other branded back boxes, you would assess:

The SBO-140BW gains advantage for being tuned for bullet cameras and making installation smoother.

Here are tips to maximize performance and longevity:

1. Seal all cable entries using proper glands or silicone to maintain weather protection.

2. Choose proper orientation so water does not pool or drip onto connectors.

3. Use corrosion-resistant screws and hardware to match aluminum body.

4. Avoid over-tightening which can deform the box or crack seals.

5. Leave access space to open the box for later maintenance or changes.

6. Ground the box if needed (in high lightning zones) to protect against surges.

7. Match the camera and this housing so their alignment and fit are optimal.

• Periodically inspect for cracks, corrosion, or seal degradation.

• Check that screw covers and junction seals remain intact.

• Clean external surfaces to prevent buildup of dirt, which can accelerate wear.

• Ensure the internal wiring does not abrade or rub against sharp edges.

Given its aluminum construction and light but solid design, it should provide long service life when properly maintained.

• If you are a security integrator or vendor, here are ways to position the SBO-140BW:

  • “Invisible strength”: highlight how it conceals the wiring yet provides robust protection.

  • Emphasize compatibility with Hanwha / bullet cameras – “fits seamlessly with your camera lineup.”

  • Aesthetic appeal: the clean white finish helps the camera installation look tidy on walls/facades.

  • Reliability as part of the system: good back-box reduces failure points related to wiring and exposure.

  • Include in project proposals as a cost-effective upgrade – minimal extra cost but high benefit.

  • Create bundles: “camera + lens + SBO-140BW mount kit” to simplify procurement for clients.
