Perfect fit in 2x2 ceiling grid. I mounted inline duct fan directly to it to exhaust heat from my server room. Actually added two (exhaust and input) but the input side needed a $5 collar as well. Note: My goal was only to supplement the airflow from the existing wall mounted ac unit (this won't cool the server room all by itself) and replace the ceiling tiles we removed for ventilation. Otherwise it was super simple and looks great (much better than the pictured prototype I made from a plastic tote!)
