VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) defines the standard for mounting a flat panel display to a stand or wall mount. Using standards like VESA’s help ensure that any mount will work with any TV, provided it fits within the size and weight limits of the mount.
Here’s how it works: The VESA specification dictates a standard pattern of connectors that the TV and mount should use. Then all you do is line up the holes and bolt the TV to the mount—no fiddling necessary.
