PFA121 junction box: compatible cameras
The PFA121 is a Dahua junction box. Its own spec sheet doesn't say which cameras it fits - almost no accessory sheet does. So we read every camera's official spec sheet and collected the ones that list the PFA121. Each row below links to that camera's document, so you can check any of them yourself.

Compatible cameras
One row per camera whose official spec sheet names the PFA121. We put this list together from those sheets - the manufacturer doesn't publish it - and every row links to the official manufacturer document, so you can check any of them.

Weight check
The PFA121 is rated to 3 kg (stated in its own datasheet). Every camera above is already listed as compatible by its manufacturer. The share below is ours, worked out from each camera's datasheet weight - a quick sanity check, not a manufacturer rating.
| Camera | Weight | Share of 3 kg rating |
|---|---|---|
| IPC-HFW5241E-SE | 470 g | 16% |
