It is threaded with 1.5-inch NPT on both ends and works with any Chief 1.5-inch NPT ceiling plate or accessory. Flow-through cable management with a cable exit port keeps wiring concealed. It suits conference room, auditorium, and commercial meeting space ceiling installations that require a fixed drop height. Product Description The CMS036 is a fixed-length extension column built to save installation time and add security to ceiling-mounted AV. Its aluminum construction provides high strength while keeping the column light enough for straightforward installation.

Flow-through cable management with a dedicated cable exit port routes signal and power wiring inside the column for a clean, concealed appearance. As a fixed 36-inch length, it establishes a defined drop from the ceiling structure to the projector or display mount.
