    What does it mean that KDL-65W955B has a vesa mount?
    marlin_heller
    over 1 year ago
    A VESA mount is a standardized interface that allows you to attach your TV to a wall mount or stand. If your TV has a VESA mount, it means that it is compatible with wall mounts or stands that follow the VESA standard. The VESA mount on your TV is typically located on the back of the TV and is identified by a set of holes spaced a specific distance apart. To use a VESA mount, you'll need to purchase a mounting bracket that is compatible with the VESA pattern on your TV and follow the manufacturer's instructions for attaching the bracket to the TV and mounting it on the wall or on a stand. This will help ensure that the TV is securely mounted.
