The HP B300 PC mounting bracket is an accessory designed for use in office environments, specifically developed for mounting compact PC platforms behind selected HP displays. The device enables the attachment of HP Desktop Mini-Business PCs, HP Chromebox, selected HP Thin Clients, and the HP Workstation Mini directly behind specific HP EliteDisplays (model years 2017 and 2018) and HP Z Displays. The bracket is black and serves to save space and reduce cable clutter in the workspace. Installation is carried out at the rear of the display stand, after which the PC platform is attached to the bracket. The bracket features a panel mounting interface in the 100 x 100 mm format, compatible with VESA mounting. This standard format allows use with a wide range of devices supporting this mounting surface.
Applications
The mounting bracket is primarily designed for office environments where a compact and tidy workspace is required. It is recommended for use with HP displays equipped with a VESA mounting (100 x 100 mm), particularly HP EliteDisplays from 2017 and 2018, as well as HP Z Displays. When used with the HP Workstation Mini, note that not all monitors can support the weight of the Z2 Mini — compatibility is therefore limited to specific monitor models.
Features and Equipment in Detail
The bracket provides a stable mounting solution for small PC systems, allowing them to be mounted directly behind the monitor. This frees up more desk space. Installation is done via the VESA mounting, with the bracket itself secured using screws. The package includes the HP B300 PC mounting bracket, a DisplayPort cable with a length of 700 mm, a USB A-to-B cable also 700 mm in length, and screws in two sizes (4 x 6 mm and 4 x 10 mm). Additionally, a quick installation guide is included. The cables are kept short to minimize cable clutter and enable neat cabling.
Technology Explained Simply
The mounting bracket uses the VESA mounting (100 x 100 mm), a globally recognized standard for securing monitors and other devices. This standard enables compatibility with a wide range of devices supporting this interface. The bracket itself is made from robust material and measures 246.3 mm (width) x 115 mm (depth) x 51.9 mm (height), with a weight of 318 g. The design ensures that monitor functions such as tilt, height, swivel, and rotation are not impaired. Installation is at the rear of the display stand, preserving the original adjustment capabilities of the monitor.
Compatibility and Accessories
The bracket is compatible with HP Desktop Mini-Business PCs, HP Chromebox, most HP Thin Clients, and the HP Workstation Mini, provided they feature a VESA mounting (100 x 100 mm). Use is restricted to specific HP EliteDisplays (2017 and 2018) and HP Z Displays. When using the HP Workstation Mini, note that not all monitors can support the weight of the Z2 Mini. The bracket is not suitable for all monitors, only those supporting the VESA mounting (100 x 100 mm) and mechanically designed for the load. The included cables (DisplayPort and USB A-to-B) are intended for connecting the PC to the monitor and support the required interfaces.
Installation and Mounting
Installation involves securing the bracket to the rear of the display stand using the included screws. The PC platform is then mounted onto the bracket. The quick installation guide included in the package provides step-by-step instructions. Installation is straightforward and requires no special tools beyond a screwdriver. The bracket is designed to not interfere with the original adjustment features of the monitor.
Operational Advantages
Using the HP B300 PC mounting bracket results in a tidier workspace, as the PC is mounted directly behind the monitor. This reduces desk space requirements and minimizes cable clutter. The included cables are kept short, keeping cabling neat. The bracket also allows continued use of monitor functions such as tilt, height, swivel, and rotation. The warranty is one year, with additional support available 24/7 via phone and online forums. The bracket is designed for business environments and provides a reliable mounting solution for small PC systems.
