Pre-Construction Wall Mount
Back Box: BB-6X-DSW
Description
The Crestron® BB-6X-DSW back box provides a UL®-listed, recess-mounted steel
enclosure for the TPS-6X-DSW Wall Mount Docking Station. Designed for preconstruction applications, the BB-6X-DSW permits fastening to the left or right side

provided on the top and bottom to accommodate a variety of fittings and a blank
cover plate is included.
NOTE: If mounting into a material other than drywall (for example, wood lectern,
concrete or rock) use the cutout template, available in the post-construction kit
MMK-6X-DSW or TMK-6X-DSW.
NOTE: For concrete and rock mounting material, allow for proper ventilation
before mounting the TPS-6X-DSW.

Setup
Assembly
Required Tools:
• #2 Phillips tip screwdriver
The back box mounting enclosure comes fully assembled except for a grounding
screw. To prepare for mounting, complete the following procedure:
1. Remove knockouts as required.
2. Attach the supplied #08-8B self-tapping screw to back box mounting
enclosure assembly for grounding.
NOTE: The #08-8B self-tapping screw (2007277), supplied for grounding
purposes, is installed in the rear of the back box mounting enclosure assembly.
Mounting
Required Tools and Materials:
• #2 Phillips tip screwdriver
• Level
• Standard drywall screws or nails (not included)
CAUTION: Allow an air gap of a least 12 inches (30.48 cm) in the wall cavity
above and below the TPS-6X-DSW for heat dissipation.
NOTE: If your installation is not on wooden studs, be sure to consider the needs of
your particular situation. For example, screw type may vary for steel studs, etc.
To mount the back box, complete the following procedure (refer to illustration on the
following page).
1. Position the back box against the stud so the extended edge of the attached
mounting plate covers the front edge of the stud. Be sure the side of the
back box is also against the side of the stud.
2. Use the level and verify the back box is horizontal. Leveling must be done
before proceeding.
3. Attach the back box to the left or right side of the stud with standard
drywall screws or nails (not included). If mounting to the left side of a stud,
the back box must be turned over so the extended edge of the attached
mounting plate is on the right side.
4. Feed cables through the knockout holes.
NOTE: This assembly should use Class 2 wiring only.

NOTE: Cut the drywall to the inside edge of the front of the back box. The labels

NOTE: The four tapped holes on the front of the back box must be exposed to
accept the TPS-6X-DSW mounting screws. The holes are found beneath the drywall
just outside of the four corners of the opening made by cutting out the drywall. Refer
to the NOTE in “Mounted View with Cover Plate” above.

Complete the installation by either installing the TPS-6X-DSW, leaving the hole
open (if permitted by local building codes) or installing the optional cover plate with
the included #06-32 x 1½” screws, as shown in the illustration above.
If the TPS-6X-DSW is to be installed, refer to the latest revision of the
TPS-6X-DSW Operations & Installation Guide (Doc. 6708) for installation

Other Mounting Option Accessories
If too much of the mounting plate is exposed after the drywall is cut, you may need
to patch the area. Crestron provides the following accessories:
• MMK-6X-DSW (Doc. 6779) – for larger repairs and to fill in larger
irregularities around the opening (requires plastering).
• TMK-6X-DSW (Doc. 6780) – for smaller repairs and to provide a smooth
edge at the opening. This option provides a finished appearance and is
preferred when wallpaper is hung.
The manuals for the MMK-6X-DSW and TMK-6X-DSW are available from the
Crestron website.
