Middle Atlantic 2786-WH NM Drop Ceiling Connector

Overview

The 2786-WH is a non-metallic drop ceiling connector fitting for Middle Atlantic's Middle Atlantic 2700 Series UniDuct raceway system. It routes cabling from surface-mounted duct runs up through a drop ceiling grid — a common transition point in commercial AV, access control, and structured cabling installations where you need a clean, finished pathway between the ceiling plenum and the raceway below. The white finish blends with standard ceiling tile surrounds. TAA compliant, making it suitable for federal and government-funded projects subject to Trade Agreements Act procurement rules.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Middle Atlantic 2700 Series UniDuct non-metallic raceway family. Confirm your installed duct is from the 2700 Series before ordering — connector geometry is series-specific and cross-series fitment is not guaranteed. Pairs with surface raceway, fittings, and accessories from the same 2700 line, including inside/outside corners, couplers, and end caps stocked in the same series.

Installation Notes

This fitting handles the vertical transition into a drop ceiling — position it at the ceiling grid line where the duct run terminates and the cable continues into the plenum cavity. Non-metallic construction keeps the fitting lightweight and eliminates concerns about grounding continuity at the transition point. Ensure the ceiling tile cutout aligns with the connector opening before securing the duct run. No special tooling beyond standard installation hardware for the 2700 Series duct is required.
