Product Description
What the IPBOX-BLACK-85X85X42 does
This small junction box gives CCTV, network and electrical cable joins a sealed, weatherproof home instead of leaving connectors exposed. It's rated IP55, meaning protection against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets — suitable for an exterior wall or under a camera bracket, indoors or out.
Where it earns its keep
- CCTV installs — housing the join between a camera pigtail and the main run, or a power/video splice partway along a cable route.
- Network cabling — sealing an outdoor Ethernet coupler or cable splice.
- General electrical wiring — a compact enclosure for small junctions on domestic or commercial jobs.
Build
The enclosure is a durable plastic housing with a sealed lid, keeping dust and moisture off the connections inside. Multiple cable entry points fitted with rubber grommets let you route more than one cable in while keeping the seal intact. It's designed as a wall-mount unit, fixing to walls, ceilings or similar surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the IP55 rating on this junction box actually protect against?
IP55 means the enclosure is protected against dust ingress and against low-pressure water jets from any direction, which suits exterior wall mounting but does not cover submersion.
How many cables can I run into the IPBOX-BLACK-85X85X42?
It has multiple cable entry points with rubber grommets, but at 85 x 85 x 42 mm it's sized for a single connector or a small handful of joins rather than a large loom.
Can this junction box be used indoors as well as outside?
Yes, it's designed for both indoor and outdoor installation, mounting to walls, ceilings or similar surfaces.
Is this box suitable for CCTV camera cable joins?
Yes, it's commonly used to house the join where a camera pigtail meets the main cable run, keeping the connection sealed rather than exposed.
