Provides a retractable cable management solution for Crestron® FT2 ELEC Series FlipTops™. Features an electrically clutched, spring powered retraction mechanism, which allows each cable to be pulled out smoothly for use, and then retracted with the touch of a button. Ideal for applications with limited space beneath the table.
Overview:
Crestron® One-Touch Cable Retractors (FT2A-CBLR-1T Series) offer a refined cable management solution for use with Crestron FT2 ELEC Series FlipTops™. Each cable pulls out smoothly to any length up to 5ft (1.5m), and retracts gently back into the FlipTop™ with the touch of a button. The button on each module is backlit for visibility in a darkened room, and is labeled with an international symbol icon indicating the connection type.
Retraction can also be actuated remotely through integration with a control system, allowing all cables to be “put away” at the end of the day or after each meeting, either manually from a touch screen, or automatically via scheduling. An electrically clutched, spring powered retraction mechanism allows for a compact design that is ideal for applications where vertical clearance is limited beneath the table.
Each One-Touch Cable Retractor is composed of a retractor enclosure and pass-through module. The enclosure attaches to the FlipTop chassis beneath the table, while the module installs in the top of the FlipTop. A cable tail is provided below the table for connection to a DM® transmitter or similar interface device. The pull-out end of the cable passes up through the module so that the connector nests neatly in place and pulls out easily for use.
The pass-through module occupies two module spaces within the FlipTop. The retractor enclosure slides onto the side of the FlipTop chassis beneath the table and locks into place with a snap. Retractors normally install at the left and right ends of a module row, but can also be installed in the middle of a row by adding an FT2A-CBLR-BRKT series mid-row adapter bracket (one per row, each sold separately). Installation requires 11-5/8inches (295mm) minimum vertical clearance below the top surface of the table. End-mounted retractors require 8-9/16inches (218mm) horizontal clearance to either side of the chassis, while mid-row retractors require 9inches (228mm) horizontal clearance to the front or rear of the chassis.
