Salamander 12 x 8 Tech Shelf, 24" Post, Integrated Mount, Factory Installed - FI/TS1/128

Product Overview

The Salamander FI/TS1/128 is a factory-installed tech shelf measuring 12 x 8 in, carried on a 24 in post. It provides a flat mounting platform for AV hardware that has no standard bracket pattern, integrated into the furniture rather than set on a wall or the table surface.

Product Description

Not every device in a conferencing room has a VESA pattern or a manufacturer bracket. Codecs, compact speakers, wireless presentation receivers, and control appliances frequently ship as a box that installers end up placing loose inside a credenza or taping under a table. A tech shelf gives those devices a defined position with airflow around them and a cable path that runs through the furniture.

The 12 x 8 in platform suits mid-size appliances, and the 24 in post places it just above the furniture surface. Larger platforms are available in the same family — 27 x 8 in and 32 x 9 in — as is a compact 7 x 5 in version, with 36 in post variants for greater elevation. Mounting points are machined and reinforced during manufacture. For help sizing a shelf against a specific device, contact the Creation Networks AV team.

Technical Specifications

Competitor Comparison

Three ways to give a conferencing camera, speaker or appliance a fixed home. Competitor specifications are as published at time of writing.

How to choose: the Peerless and Chief shelves are the right answer when the camera has to bolt onto an existing cart or display mount and the decision is being made after the room is built. The Salamander bracket is specified up front, with the furniture, and earns that constraint by putting the device on a reinforced structure at a chosen height with cabling concealed inside the furniture — and by offering four platform sizes rather than one. Send us the camera or speaker model and we will confirm the right platform and post length.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which shelf size should be specified?

Match the platform to the device footprint: 7 x 5 in for compact appliances, 12 x 8 in for mid-size codecs, and 27 x 8 in or 32 x 9 in for wider hardware or multiple devices.

What is the difference between the TS1 and TS2 series?

TS1 shelves use a 24 in post and TS2 shelves a 36 in post. The platform sizes are the same across both.

Can a shelf be added after delivery?

No. It is factory-installed, with mounting points machined and reinforced during manufacture.
