The Chief CMS446 adapts Chief's above-tile Speed-Connect suspended ceiling kit for pro AV cameras. It is built on the CMS440 bridge with an added camera plate, so a PTZ or conferencing camera can be hung through a drop ceiling without a separate custom bracket. The kit uses a WireVice cable suspension system for quick tie-off to structure and includes an all-point security approach intended to deter theft. Each kit fits 24-inch (600 mm) wide ceiling tile grids. In the box, Chief lists four 25 ft flexible cables, four wood eyebolts, four concrete anchors, a chrome trim ring and the CMS440 with camera plate. Most cameras under 20 lbs (9.07 kg) can be secured through standard 1/4"-20 threaded mounting holes. The kit is white, UL Listed, and listed by Chief as TAA compliant. The camera is sold separately; confirm your camera's mounting pattern and weight before ordering.
