FULL TILT
Sanus is introducing the latest addition to its range
of super slim full-motion mounts, the VLF613-B2,
for use with 40- to 80-inch TVs, to mount them
close to the wall, yet provide maximum flexibility
of positioning.
The VLF613 mount sits just 47mm from the
wall when folded flat, positioning the screen in a
manner that complements the thin profile of
modern TVs. Its full-motion capability permits the
screen to be extended 342mm into the room and
up to 50-degrees of total swivel can be achieved.
Virtual Axis™ finger-tip control enables the screen
to be tilted to -8 degrees for the optimum viewing
angle if the screen is mounted above eye level.
In keeping with Sanus’ installer focused design
criteria, the VLF613 incorporates ProSet™ post-
installation height and level adjustments, which,
together with lateral shift, enables fine-tuning of
the position after it is attached to the wall, making
it easy to create the perfect TV display. Cable
management is integrated into the mount with a
dedicated cable sleeve, and recesses in the arms in
which to hide the cables. Similar attention to detail

Simple, reliable and powerful, the new URC MX HomePro is a cloud-based smart
home control system that is a great starting point for customers looking for single
room AV control. The MX HomePro, which incorporates a smart hub, remote

an affordable professionally installed solution.
The URC MX HomePro offers users one-touch control of home entertainment
and IoT devices including lighting, thermostats, security cameras and Z-Wave®
products. The compact H500 smart hub and remote control, which features a
two-inch colour LCD screen, connect via Wi-Fi or Ethernet. The free to download
MX HomePro App offers on-touch system control at home or on the go, and can
control multiple locations from a single smart device.
For the installer, this system is extremely easy to programme and monitor.
The MX HomePro offers dealers simple, web-based programming via PC, Mac
or mobile, and allows for servicing to be managed remotely. Limited training is
required for the URC HomePro system, which means the installers can spend
more time out on the road, selling and installing products.
For the customer, this package allows them to enter into the world of
smarthome technology, but on an affordable level.

has been paid to the wall mounted section of the
unit, where the mounting hardware is located
behind decorative hardware covers to maintain
the clean look of the installation. The dual rail open
wall plate provides ready access to wall sockets
for quick and easy connections.
“The super-slim mounts have been one of
the biggest selling ranges within our portfolio over
recent years, as TVs become ever thinner.” says
Rick van Bommel, Senior Marketing and Product
Manager – international. “Making a thin mount
that is also highly adjustable is a considerable
challenge for the engineers, but one that the Sanus
product design team has risen to and become very
adept at. The new VLF613 is the epitome of their
engineering prowess and a product that is sure to
find many fans among the custom installer
community and with end-users who want their TVs
to be discretely mounted in their homes, yet flexible
in movement to suit their viewing situation.”
The VLF613-B2 will be available now at a UK
MSRP of £199 inc. VAT.
