The Chief Tempo™ Flat Panel Wall Mount System Now Includes Camera Shelf, Interface Extenders, Crestron® UC Bracket, and Video-Sound Bar Mount Solutions

 

Eden Prairie, Minn. -  (NOVEMBER 2023)  — Chief announces the latest mounting innovations available for its Tempo™ Flat Panel Wall Mount System. This all-in-one, easy-to-configure wall mounting system now includes brand-new accessories that further support and streamline the flat panel solution. The new accessories include the Camera Shelf, 650 mm Interface Extenders, Crestron® UC Bracket Accessory, and Video-Sound Bar Mount. 

 

“When we announced the Tempo Flat Panel Wall Mount System at InfoComm this year, integrators we’re excited to see a solution catering to fast, scalable enterprise deployments and AVaaS,” said Ann Ewoldt, product marketing manager, Chief, Legrand | AV. “One of the biggest requests were accessories that would further Tempo’s flexibility. These accessories were born from that feedback and leverage Legrand AV’s years of expertise creating device mounting solutions that rethink the AV business model and builds upon Tempo’s ingenuity for proper device mounting and storage.”

 

The Chief Tempo Flat Panel Wall Mount System is thoughtfully designed with feedback from installers for faster flat panel deployments — from ordering and shipping to installation and servicing. Integrators can save time by ordering one part number. The Chief Tempo Wall Mount System is offered with an optional Middle Atlantic PD-715SC-NS slim-profile, 7-outlet, 15A power strip. Two 15”x10” Lever Lock™ storage plates are included, which can be preloaded with up to six small devices plus cabling ready to ship to the job site. Panels can be added and easily moved along the mounting rail to store more devices. As a result, integrators can minimize last-minute shipping costs of missing parts. 

 

Like other Chief mounts, the Tempo Wall Mount System features up to 1-inch post-install leveling adjustments and 10 degrees of display tilt in 2.5-degree increments for viewing flexibility. The total installation depth facilitates ADA compliance with 49” to 86” displays with less than 2” in depth and a 970 mm x 450 mm mounting pattern. The mount pulls away from the wall for approximately 13 inches of service depth, allowing ample access to cables and AV equipment for simple, fast maintenance checks. It can be installed on any wall, including steel studs, wood studs, concrete, and block wall substrates. 

 

The new Tempo Flat Panel Wall Mount System accessories include:

Camera Shelf

The Camera Shelf is 6” long and has a 3.28” depth adjustment slot to facilitate placement of a camera using a ¼”-20 screw. It fits most cameras with a ¼”-20 tripod mounting hole and has a weight capacity of 15 lbs. For quick and easy installation, the camera shelf glides and locks into place on the top or bottom rail of the Tempo Flat Panel Wall Mount System using strut channel nuts with captive screws. Lateral shift allows installers to position the camera shelf anywhere along the wall plate mounting rail. Toolless height-adjust knobs allow 6.27” of travel to easily position the camera shelf at the right height above or below the display. Window opening and slots along both sides of the vertical bracket facilitate cable management. It also includes mounting brackets for Vaddio IntelliSHOT and ConferenceSHOT ePTZ cameras.
