control and relays these signals to the audio/video equipment for operation
from another room. Mounts through a circular hole with a diameter of 0.5”,
requires a minimum clearance of 2.0” behind the face of the mounting sur-
face, and will mount in a panel with a maximum thickness of 1.75”.

BEZEL EXCHANGE
The SaphIR 862P Plasma Eye comes with three bezels (white, black, brass) for
more installation color choices.
