Installation Overview

Install and set up the HSA surface access enclosure as follows:

1If you have an unprepared mounting template, prepare the template. See “Preparing the Routing Template” in this chapter.

2If desired, install the optional RJ-45 to RJ-11 conversion kit(s) to replace one or more RJ-45 connectors with RJ-11 connectors. Refer to the RJ-45 to RJ-11 Conversion Kit manual.

3If desired, install the optional flexible conduit kit to replace the removable AC power cord. Refer to the Flexible Conduit Kit manual.

4Cut a hole in the surface where the enclosure will be installed and install the enclosure. The clamshell clamps the enclosure to the table. See “Preparing the Table and Mounting the Enclosure” in this chapter.

5Run all cables necessary to support the AC and RJ-45 connectors and all planned AAP connectors. Leave enough slack in the cables to connect them to the underside of the enclosure or to the rear of the AAPs before the AAPs are installed in the enclosure.

6Turn off all of the equipment to be connected. Ensure that the equipment connected to the RJ-45 connectors and the connections for any AAPs are all turned off and disconnected from the power source.

7If applicable, connect cables to the rear connectors on the AAPs to be installed in the HSA. Install the desired AAPs on the front panel of the enclosure. See “Cabling and Installing the AAPs” in this chapter.

8Connect the power and RJ-45 cables to the underside of the enclosure. See “Cabling the Enclosure” in this chapter.

9Route and secure the AAP cables inside the clamshell. See “Routing the AAP Cables” in this chapter.

10Peel the protective coating from the top surface.

11Connect the power cords and turn on the devices that connect to the surface access enclosure.

Preparing the Routing Template

Extron provides a metal template for each HSA model at no charge. Appendix A lists the HSA 400/402 template part numbers. Extron recommends using this template as a guide to cut the hole in the table where the HSA will be installed.

 

The metal routing template is reusable. Do not discard

 

this template when the installation is complete. Save it

 

for installing future HSA enclosures of the same size.

1.

Cut two 1/2" x 4" (approximately 13 mm x 102 mm) strips

 

of soft, finished lumber at least long enough to span the

 

distance between the desired installation location on the

 

table or other mounting surface and the edges of the

 

mounting surface (figure 2-1).

 

 

CAUTION

Do not allow the wood screws to protrude through

 

 

the bottom of the wooden strips. Protruding screws

 

 

will mar the table when the template is used.

Figure 2-1 — Prepared mounting template

These strips raise the routing template above the mounting surface to provide room for the router’s collar, protect the mounting surface, and extend the routing template’s reach so that it can be clamped to the edge of the surface.

2. Using four or more short wood screws, secure the mounting template to the lumber strips.
