Abstract

A mounting assembly for an electronic device includes a device-side bracket configured to be secured to a rear surface of the electronic device, a tilt bracket pivotably coupled to the device-side bracket, and a pan bracket detachably and pivotably coupled to the tilt bracket. The tilt bracket includes a first wall mount interface. The tilt bracket is securable at a plurality of angles relative to the device-side bracket. The pan bracket includes a second wall mount interface. The mounting assembly is adjustable between a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration, the pan bracket is detached from the tilt bracket, and the first wall mount interface is configured to mount to a wall surface. In the second configuration, the pan bracket is attached to the tilt bracket, and the second wall mount interface is configured to mount to the wall surface.
