ANCT – Nested Towers – Tilt-down
Height range 4m – 10m
Altron Nested Camera Towers are designed to be a secure mounting solution, where a lattice tower is the preferred mounting option. Cabling through the tower is completely concealed thanks to its patented hinge design and there is a secure access door and treated backboard within the large integrated base post so that connections and equipment are situated inside the tower.
Installation is made easy by the use of a simple bolt frame for setting the holding down bolts and a large entry point into the base post provides clear access for cable ducts.The footprint of the tower is small and the appearance is neat and compact due to the base post ‘nesting’ inside the tower.
ANCT towers give good rigidity and are suitable for exposed locations. Ideal for medium to heavy camera installations or lighter applications where rigidity is paramount, a full range of accessories is available and all tower components are held in stock. ANCT Towers are not ideally suited for public area installations due to their climbable nature.
