The Chief CMS115 mounting plate is an essential accessory for ceiling-mounted projector installations. Designed by Chief, a renowned brand in audiovisual mounting solutions, this plate combines durability, practicality, and aesthetics to meet the needs of professionals and home theater enthusiasts alike.
The CMS115 stands out with its compact and sleek design, crafted to simplify installation while ensuring a polished visual finish. Its aluminum construction provides both lightness and strength, allowing it to support an impressive load of up to 500 lbs (226.8 kg). This high load capacity makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of projectors, from compact models to larger, heavier units.
One of the key features of this mounting plate is its Speed-Connect system, which enables quick and secure installation. With its four anchor points, the CMS115 ensures stable and reliable ceiling attachment. The central 1.5” (3.81 cm) threaded fitting is compatible with standard NPT extension columns, offering great flexibility in configuring your setup.
Chief has paid special attention to the aesthetic aspect of installations by incorporating a cable management system into the CMS115. A strategically placed cable exit allows wires to be routed directly through the plate and extension column, ensuring a neat and organized setup. This feature is particularly valued in professional environments where appearance is crucial, such as conference rooms or exhibition spaces.
The CMS115 mounting plate integrates seamlessly into Chief’s product ecosystem. It is compatible with a wide range of CMS extension columns, allowing you to adjust the projector’s height to meet the specific needs of each installation. This modularity provides installers with great flexibility to create custom configurations tailored to any environment.
The CMS115 is designed to be universal, but its compatibility depends on the specific mount used for the projector. It is compatible with Chief RPAU, RSAU, RSMAU, and RPMAU mounts, which cover a wide range of projector models.
To choose the correct column length, measure the distance between the ceiling and the desired position of the projector. Chief offers several CMS column lengths, ranging from 3 inches to 24 inches, to accommodate most configurations.
The CMS115 is designed for installation on flat ceilings. For sloped ceilings, an additional tilt adapter, available separately in Chief’s accessory range, is required.
While the CMS115 already includes a security system, an additional safety cable can be added for enhanced protection. Consult a professional to explore compatible options for your specific setup.
