Optional accessories
Optional equipment to complement the PCM 240 includes:
• PMK 350 Low Profile Projector Mounting Kit —
The Extron PMK 350 securely mounts several quarter rack
width products, or multiple products and a power supply
to a projector ceiling mounting pole. It uses only
2" (5 cm) between the projector and the ceiling to
conveniently and securely enclose the products out of
sight above the display device.
• PMP Series Projector Mounting Poles — Available in fixed
lengths of 4" (10 cm), 6" (15 cm), 10" (25 cm), and
12" (30 cm), PMP Projector Mounting Poles are used
with the PCM 240 and UPB 25 to create individualized
installations. Each pole includes a cutout, which provides
convenient cable access.
• UPB 25 Universal Projector Mounting Bracket — The Extron
UPB 25 universal projector mount is compatible with
nearly every projector having a weight of up to 25 pounds
(11 kg). It features independent adjustment of roll
(±4 degrees of horizontal tilt), pitch (±25 degrees of
vertical angle) and yaw (360 degrees of rotation on a pole
mount, or 10 degrees when mounted flush to the ceiling)
for precise control of each axis and exact alignment of
the projector. Locking mechanisms maintain the original
positioning settings when servicing requires the projector
and attached arm assembly to be removed from the
mounting assembly.

About the PCM 240 projector ceiling mount
The Extron PCM 240 Projector Ceiling Mount is a versatile
ceiling plate for installation in classrooms or boardrooms with
2' x 2' or 2' x 4' T-bar style suspended ceiling. The PCM 240
should be secured to the structural ceiling, above the suspended
ceiling tiles, using turnbuckles and tie wire. Once secured in
place, it is easily fixed to the suspended ceiling T-bar with the
supplied screws. When properly installed, it can hold up to
50 pounds (23 kgs) of A/V equipment. The projector mounting
pole is easily installed in the threaded pipe adapter mounted
on a sliding plate, allowing horizontal adjustment for correct
alignment. The PCM 240 includes mounting holes for Extron 3"
deep, ¼ rack wide devices (e.g. MPA 122), and has two openings
for Raco (catalog #8471) or UL junction box insertion, providing
integral power access points, video connection, or simple cable
pass-throughs.
