Salamander 27 x 8 Tech Shelf, 24" Post, Integrated Mount, Fact...
Product Overview
The Salamander FI/TS1/278 is a factory-installed tech shelf measuring 27 x 8 in on a 24 in post. The wide platform carries soundbars, video bars, and multiple stacked appliances on a single furniture-integrated shelf.
Product Description
Width is the constraint that drives this size. A conferencing soundbar or an all-in-one video bar is long and shallow, and a 12 in platform leaves the ends unsupported. At 27 in the shelf carries the full span, which matters both for load distribution and for keeping the device level so its camera framing and audio coverage stay as commissioned.
The same platform also suits rooms placing two or three appliances side by side — a codec beside a wireless presentation receiver, for instance — rather than stacking them inside a credenza where airflow is restricted. The 24 in post positions the shelf just above the furniture surface; a 36 in post version is available as FI/TS2/278. Mounting points are machined and reinforced during manufacture. For sizing help, contact the Creation Networks AV team.

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
Why specify a 27 in shelf over a 12 in one?
A soundbar or video bar spans well beyond 12 in, and supporting only its center leaves the ends unsupported. The wider platform carries the full span and keeps the device level.
Can multiple devices share the shelf?
Yes. The 27 in width accommodates two or three appliances side by side with airflow around them. Confirm combined weight against the shelf specification.
Is a taller post available?
Yes. FI/TS2/278 is the same platform on a 36 in post for installations needing greater elevation.
