Install the Cisco Edge 340 Series on a Flat-Panel Display

You can use your display-mounting kit to install a Cisco Edge 340 to almost any VESA-compliant flat-panel display that is attached to a third-party VESA bracket. You can mount your Cisco Edge 340 Series above or below the flat-panel display, whether the display is oriented in landscape mode (horizontal) or portrait mode (vertical).

Note See the manufacturer documentation pertaining to your display to learn if its casing is VESA compliant and, if it is, where you can obtain a compatible VESA bracket for it. Cisco does not sell VESA brackets or kits.
The LCD-mount plates for this product might not be long enough to mount your mounting kit to an extremely large flat-panel display even if that display is VESA compliant.
