Hikvision DS-KAB34X-S1 Protective Shield For Face Recognition Terminals

Hikvision DS-KAB34X-S1 Protective Shield

The Hikvision DS-KAB34X-S1 is a protective shield designed for compatible Hikvision face recognition access-control terminals. It provides a purpose-designed surround for selected DS-K1T341A/C and DS-K1T342 series terminals while maintaining access to the terminal screen, camera and user interface.

Manufactured from lightweight PC material, the DS-KAB34X-S1 measures approximately 99.4 x 55 x 199.3mm and weighs approximately 89g.

This product is a passive physical accessory only. It contains no electronics, power supply, reader, access controller or biometric hardware.

Designed for Compatible Face Recognition Terminals

Hikvision specifically identifies the DS-KAB34X-S1 as a protective shield for compatible DS-K1T341A/C and DS-K1T342 series face recognition terminals.

The shield is designed around the physical dimensions and form of supported terminals rather than as a universal enclosure for every Hikvision access-control device.

Customers should therefore check the exact model number of their face recognition terminal before ordering.

Protective Shield Design

The DS-KAB34X-S1 surrounds the top and sides of the compatible terminal to provide additional physical shielding around the installed device.

This can be useful where a more enclosed installation is preferred or where the access terminal would benefit from additional physical coverage around its body.

The shield should not be treated as a sealed enclosure and does not replace the environmental protection rating of the terminal itself.

PC Construction

Hikvision specifies PC as the construction material for the DS-KAB34X-S1.

PC, commonly referred to as polycarbonate, provides a lightweight yet rigid construction suited to accessory housings and protective covers.

The complete shield weighs approximately 89g, helping keep the accessory lightweight when installed with the compatible terminal.

Compact 99.4 x 55 x 199.3mm Dimensions

The official Hikvision specification gives overall dimensions of approximately:

• 99.4mm width
• 55mm depth
• 199.3mm height

These dimensions correspond to the purpose-designed protective profile for the supported face recognition terminal series.

Purpose-Built Access Control Accessory

The DS-KAB34X-S1 is designed specifically as an accessory for compatible access-control terminals rather than as a general CCTV mounting bracket.

It should not be confused with wall brackets, pedestal mounts, electrical back boxes or complete terminal housings.

Its primary role is to provide a fitted protective surround around compatible face recognition terminals.

No Electrical Connection Required

The DS-KAB34X-S1 contains no electronic components and requires no electrical connection.

There is no power input, network interface, Wi-Fi connection, relay output, card reader or data connection associated with the protective shield itself.

All electrical and network functionality is provided by the compatible face recognition terminal installed with it.

No Power Supply Required

Because this product is a passive physical accessory, it does not require a separate power supply.

Any power requirements relate to the access-control terminal and wider system rather than the DS-KAB34X-S1 shield.

Important Compatibility Information

The official Hikvision datasheet identifies compatibility with DS-K1T341A/C and DS-K1T342 series face recognition terminals.

This does not mean the shield should automatically be assumed compatible with every DS-K1T34x, DS-K1T6xx or other Hikvision access-control terminal.

Always check the complete terminal model number before purchase.

Not a Universal Access Control Bracket

The DS-KAB34X-S1 should not be sold as a universal bracket.

Its dimensions and mounting profile have been designed specifically around supported Hikvision face recognition terminal families.

Using it with an unsupported terminal may result in incorrect alignment, insufficient clearance or incompatible mounting points.

No IP Rating Specified for the Shield

Hikvision's official DS-KAB34X-S1 datasheet does not publish an IP ingress-protection rating for this accessory.

The product should therefore not be advertised as an IP65, IP66 or waterproof enclosure.

The environmental suitability of the finished installation depends on the compatible terminal, mounting position and complete installation method.

Terminal Protection Is Separate from Terminal IP Rating

Adding the DS-KAB34X-S1 does not change or upgrade the certified IP rating of the access-control terminal installed inside it.

Installers should continue to follow the terminal manufacturer's mounting and environmental requirements.

Installation Considerations

The accessory should be securely installed according to the supported terminal arrangement and the requirements of the mounting surface.

Before installation, confirm that there is sufficient space around the intended terminal position for the 99.4 x 55 x 199.3mm shield.

The underlying wall or mounting surface should also be suitable for the terminal and associated access-control wiring.

Hikvision DS-KAB34X-S1 Product Facts

What Is Included?

This listing is for the Hikvision DS-KAB34X-S1 protective shield.

A face recognition terminal is not part of the product specification and should not be assumed to be included unless your own commercial bundle specifically states otherwise.

The official public datasheet does not provide a detailed packing list for screws, fixings or other mounting hardware. Those items should therefore not be promised as included unless confirmed from the exact physical stock.

Ideal for Compatible Hikvision Access Control Installations

The DS-KAB34X-S1 is suitable where a compatible Hikvision face recognition terminal requires a purpose-designed protective surround as part of a professional access-control installation.

It can be used in appropriate office, commercial, residential and controlled-entry applications where one of the supported terminal models is being installed.
