Best Hikvision-Compatible CCTV Accessories (Switches, Cables, Mounts)
Hikvision-compatible accessories that just work: standards-based PoE switches, cables and mounts at a fraction of OEM cost. See the full brand guide.
Published 2026-08-03
Hikvision cameras and NVRs use open standards, so you do not have to buy Hikvision-branded accessories. Standards-based gear connects and powers them for far less.
PoE switches
Hikvision IP cameras take 802.3af/at over RJ45. The 8-port 802.3at switch or 4-port 802.3af power and link them to your Hikvision NVR with one cable each.
Cable and connectors
Run Cat6 for IP, or RG59 siamese + BNC for analog/HD-TVI. Finish power ends with DC plugs.
Mounts and housings
A universal wall bracket fits standard base-mount Hikvision bullets and turrets; add a rain cover outdoors.

Frequently asked
Do Hikvision cameras need Hikvision switches?
No. Any 802.3af/at PoE switch works because Hikvision IP cameras use the open PoE standard. Third-party switches interconnect with Hikvision NVRs out of the box.
Are third-party Hikvision mounts safe to use?
Yes. Standard base-mount patterns are shared across brands. Our universal brackets are sized for them. SurveilForge is independent and not affiliated with Hikvision.
Are SurveilForge accessories compatible with Hikvision, Dahua and Axis cameras?
Yes — they follow open surveillance standards (IEEE 802.3af/at PoE, RJ45, BNC, DC 12V/24V) and work with any brand using those standards, including Hikvision, Dahua and Axis. SurveilForge is an independent brand, not affiliated with any camera OEM.
Can I buy a single unit, or only wholesale?
