SM 26 • Setup Guide
NOTE: Unless otherwise stated, mounting hardware is not included.
This setup guide contains installation information about the Extron SpeedMount® SM 26 speaker.
NOTE: Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.
Installing the Speaker Mounting Plate
The SM 26 speaker comes with a at mounting plate and an adapter for positioning the speaker 10° up, down, left, or right.
• 0° mounting plate — The flat (0°) mounting plate allows the speaker to be mounted flat on a suitable surface.
• 10° mounting adapter — The 10° mounting adapter allows the speaker to be installed at a 10 degree angle so that the
speaker can be pointed up, down, left, or right from an elevated position by rotating the adapter.
The mounting plate can be installed vertically or
horizontally as shown below right.
10° Mounting Adapter
NOTES:
• Observe all applicable building codes and local ordinances when installing the speaker.
• If mounting the SM 26 with the yoke mount, see the Yoke Mount Setup Guide.

Mounting to a Wall Stud
1. Locate the wall stud where the mounting plate will be installed.
2. If using the 10° mounting adapter, position the adapter over the wall stud according to how the speaker will be angled and
mark the positions of the pilot holes. See the figure below right for mounting hole locations.
If not using the adapter, position the mounting plate against the wall. The #26 arrow molded into the mounting plate indicates
the vertical midpoint of the SM 26 speaker when it is mounted on a wall stud. While positioning the mounting plate on the
wall, mark the location of two pilot holes using the holes indicated below.

NOTE: A speaker wire access hole (see the following figures) must also be cut in the wall. Mark that hole location now
with the mounting plate positioned on the wall while ensuring that the wall stud does not interfere with the wire routing
and that the mounting plate hides the access hole.
3. Drill the mounting plate pilot holes and cut the speaker wire access hole, as previously marked.
4. Install the speaker cables into the wall before installing the speaker mounting plate. Leave enough slack in the cable.
5. Install the mounting plate.
NOTE: Since applications can vary considerably, it is assumed that the installer will exercise good judgment when
selecting the mounting location, method, and hardware. Mounting hardware is not provided.
z If using the 10° mounting adapter, route the speaker cable through the adapter and 0° mounting plate, attach the adapter
to the 0° mounting plate using the four included screws and washers, then attach the wire ends to the quick connect
contacts using a small screwdriver. Be sure to observe the correct polarity. Attach the mounting plate to the wall (see the
