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 pre-
construction applications, the BB-6X-DSW permits fastening to the left or right side
of a stud in a framed wall prior to installation of sheet rock. Conduit knockouts are
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.
The table below lists all parts included with the BB-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.
