Optoma Short Throw Projector Ceiling Mount
By placing an order, you are agreeing to our privacy policy and terms of service.
The Optoma Universal Short Throw Projector Ceiling Mount is a universal mount that Optoma says fits almost any projector. It supports up to 33 lbs (15 kg), hangs 22.7 to 32.9 inches (576 to 835 mm) on its adjustable pipe, with +/-30-degree rotation and +/-20-degree pitch and roll for image alignment.
The white finish blends cleanly with most ceilings, and integrated cable routing keeps your installation looking professional. Optoma rates it ideal for high ceilings. Optoma's compatible-models list includes the GT2000HDR and many other Optoma short-throw projectors.
Supports projectors up to 33 lbs (15 kg), covering Optoma short-throw golf simulator projectors such as the GT2000HDR, 4K400STx, and ZW351ST-B.
Telescoping design adjusts from 22.7 to 32.9 inches (576mm to 835mm) on the pipe, fitting rooms with standard 8-foot ceilings to taller spaces.
Rotate the projector left or right to aim the image precisely at your impact screen without repositioning the ceiling plate.
Detach and reconnect the projector quickly for maintenance or lamp replacement without disturbing your alignment settings.
Integrated cable management channels keep power and video cables hidden for a professional, clutter-free installation.
Optoma rates the OCM815W ideal for high ceilings, with a pole that adjusts from 22.7 to 32.9 inches to set the projector at the right height.
Optoma calls the OCM815W a universal pole mount that fits almost any projector. Its compatible-models list includes these Optoma short-throw projectors used in golf simulator builds:
For the Optoma ZW351ST-B (WXGA laser, 3,600 lumens, 6.25 lbs), the matching mount is the OCM815B, the same universal pole mount in black. The ZW351ST-B is not on the white OCM815W's compatible-models list.
The Optoma 4K400STx (4K UHD, 4,000 lumens, 8.77 lbs) is within the weight rating but is not on Optoma's compatible-models list.
Any projector you mount must weigh 33 lbs (15 kg) or less, and its mounting holes must line up with the mount's adjustable extension arms (included in the box). If you are unsure whether your projector fits, call us at 1-888-871-6110 and we will confirm compatibility.
Determine where the projector needs to sit based on your throw distance and screen position. Use the ceiling plate as a template to mark drill holes.
Mount the ceiling plate with lag bolts and washers, on a ceiling that can support the weight of the projector and mount.
Adjust the pipe between 22.7 and 32.9 inches based on your ceiling height and desired projector position.
Attach your projector, then use +/-30-degree rotation and +/-20-degree pitch and roll to dial in the perfect image alignment.
