Buy a POE IP Camera without mounting enclosure?

[RDC]

Anyone know if you can buy such things?. I have searched.

I need a poe camera that I can poke just the lens through a ceiling. The ceiling is to low to mount a full camera.

Picture quality not important, needs to be poe, no IR, cheap as possible. Compatible with BI.

Any ideas?

check aliexpress for poe pinhole cameras..get them to give you access to confirm it works with BI...

if its a drop ceiling or you have access from above you can buy a dahua mini dome and just pop the dome portion in. @vector18 did an install like that where he dropped the dome portion only through the ceiling....

Thanks. Pushing a dome through is a option - any recommendations for a really cheap dome ideally without ir?.

How cheap is really cheap?
These Dahuas are good mini domes, no ir, work well with low light

You might want the 2.8mm version though. They do not have ir-cut so you cannot use any external ir with these.
