Peerless-AV ACC-MBF – Ceiling Mount Conversion Bracket for DS-MBX/Y/Z Menu Board Mounts

ACC-MBF – Peerless-AV Ceiling Mount Conversion Bracket for DS-MBX/Y/Z Menu Board Mounts

The Peerless-AV ACC-MBF is a ceiling mount conversion accessory bracket that works in conjunction with the DS-MBX, DS-MBY, and DS-MBZ menu board wall mounts, converting them from wall-mount to ceiling-mount configurations when structural or electrical constraints prevent installation on the existing wall surface.

Product Description

Menu board installations in quick-service restaurants, food courts, and retail environments frequently encounter situations where the planned wall mounting location is unavailable due to concealed structural members, existing HVAC or electrical runs, or architectural features that prevent a clean wall mount installation. The ACC-MBF is designed specifically to address these situations, providing a fast and compatible solution that converts the existing DS-MB series wall mount to a ceiling drop configuration without requiring a complete hardware change.

The bracket sustains a maximum load capacity of 200 lb, making it appropriate for multi-display menu board assemblies where two or more 48" screens are mounted in a horizontal array. The ACC-MBF maintains the same display geometry and height relationship as the wall-mount configuration, preserving the visual layout intended during the planning phase even when the physical mounting surface changes.

Because the ACC-MBF is an official Peerless-AV accessory engineered specifically for the DS-MBX, DS-MBY, and DS-MBZ mounts, it integrates without modification and without the structural compromises associated with field-fabricated ceiling adapters. This keeps the installation within the intended load rating and structural design envelope of the DS-MB mount series.

Key Features

• Converts DS-MB wall mounts to ceiling mounts — Designed specifically for the DS-MBX, DS-MBY, and DS-MBZ menu board mounts, providing a direct conversion without field modification.
• 200 lb maximum load capacity — Sustains the weight of multi-display menu board assemblies including two or more 48" commercial displays.
• Supports 48" displays — Sized and rated for 48" commercial display panels as used in standard digital menu board deployments.
• Addresses installation obstacles — Provides a fast solution when wall mounting is prevented by structural members, HVAC, electrical runs, or architectural constraints.
• Official Peerless-AV accessory — Engineered specifically for the DS-MB series, maintaining the structural integrity and load ratings of the original mount system.
• Preserves planned display geometry — Maintains the display height and layout relationship intended during the planning phase regardless of ceiling vs. wall mounting.
• No field modification required — The bracket connects directly to the existing DS-MB mount hardware without drilling, cutting, or adapting the original components.

Typical Applications

The ACC-MBF is specified on quick-service restaurant, food court, and retail menu board projects where last-minute site conditions prevent wall mounting at the planned location. It is also appropriate for renovation and retrofit projects where existing wall construction makes penetration impractical, and for any DS-MB installation where the structural ceiling offers a more reliable attachment point than the available wall surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the ACC-MBF be used with menu board mounts other than the DS-MBX, DS-MBY, and DS-MBZ?

No. The ACC-MBF is engineered specifically for the Peerless-AV DS-MBX, DS-MBY, and DS-MBZ mount models. Using it with other mount families is not supported and may compromise the structural integrity of the installation. Contact Creation Networks to identify the correct ceiling conversion accessory for other Peerless-AV mount series.

What is the maximum weight the ACC-MBF can support?

The ACC-MBF has a maximum load capacity of 200 lb, which covers multi-panel menu board assemblies using two or more 48" commercial displays within the DS-MB mount series configuration.

Is the ACC-MBF a complete ceiling mount kit or just the conversion bracket?

The ACC-MBF is the conversion bracket that connects the existing DS-MB wall mount to the ceiling. It is used in conjunction with the DS-MBX, DS-MBY, or DS-MBZ wall mount—it does not replace that mount. Both components are required for a complete ceiling-mount installation. Creation Networks carries the full DS-MB series.
