Extron electronic Cable Cubby 600 Installation Overview, Preparing the Routing Template

Installation

Installation Overview

Install and set up the Cable Cubby enclosures as follows:

1If you plan to use a mounting template that has not been prepared, prepare the template. See Preparing the Routing Template, later in this chapter.

2Cut a hole in the surface where the enclosure will be installed. See Preparing the Table, later in this chapter.

3Run all cables necessary to support the AC connector, the cables stored in the cubby, and all planned AAP connectors. Leave enough slack in the cables to connect or route them before the cubby is installed in the table.

4If applicable, install the power module. If your location requires electrical conduit, install an Extron flexible conduit kit. Refer to the Flexible Conduit Kit Installation Guide, Extron part #68-734-01.

5Install all desired cables into the cable pass-through (split) AAPs and install the AAPs into the Cable Cubby. See Installing the Cables and AAPs, later in this chapter.

6If applicable, connect cables to the rear connectors on the passive AAPs and install the AAPs in the cubby. See Installing the AAPs, later in this chapter.

7Mount the Cable Cubby in the table. See Mounting the Cable Cubby, later in this chapter.

8Peel the protective film from the top surface.

9Connect the Cable Cubby power cord.

Preparing the Routing Template

Extron provides metal templates for the Cable Cubbies at no charge. See Routing Template Part Numbers, in appendix A, Reference Information, for part numbers. Extron recommends using this template as a guide to cut the hole in the table where the cubby will be installed.

NThe metal routing template is reusable. Do not discard this template when the installation is complete. Save it for installing Cable Cubby models of the same size.

1.	Cut 1/2" x 4" strips of soft, finished lumber at least
	long enough to span the distance between the desired
	installation location on the mounting surface and the edges
	of the mounting surface (figure 2-1).

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.

CDo 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.
