FlipTop Basic Crestron FT-600
Connection Compartment
The FT-600 is highly configurable to provide a well-organized connectivity solution
tailored to each unique application. It provides options for both pullout cables and
panel-mounted connectors, with or without ac power outlets. It comes standard with
two cable pass-through plates and four blank plates, all of which can be swapped out
for a choice of cable retractors, connector plates, and ac power outlet modules.
• Cable Pass-Through Plates – Each cable pass-through plate provides four
grommeted holes to accommodate Crestron Certified Interface Cables* and
other AV, data, and communication cables. The user end of each cable
stows neatly within the connection compartment ready for use while excess
cable simply drops out of sight below the cable pass-through plate. The
grommets provide a smooth, slippery surface for easy pullout of each cable.
Blank caps are also provided to cover any unused holes. The cable
pass-through plates are positioned at the left and right sides of the
connection compartment. The FT-600 supports one or two cable
pass-through plates. Two are included.
• Cable Retractors – For an even more refined cable management solution,
the FT-600 accommodates up to six Crestron CBLR2 Cable Retractors.*
Crestron cable retractors feature a patented mechanism that ensures smooth
operation while eliminating hanging cable loops beneath the table. Up to
three cable retractors can be installed in place of each cable pass-through
plate, allowing for a total of six cable retractors.
• Connector Plates – If panel-mounted connectors are preferred, the FT-600
can accommodate up to four FTA-CP Connector Plates.* Connector plates
are offered with a variety of common AV and data connector types. Custom
connector plates may also be fabricated by the installer using the blank
plates provided. All four connector plates are positioned at the center of the
connection compartment.
• AC Power Outlet Modules – To provide power for laptops and other
portable devices, the FT-600 can be equipped with up to four 120 Vac
(NEMA) power outlets, or a single international ac outlet, using a choice of
FTA-PWR series AC Power Outlet Modules.* Each FTA-PWR module
occupies either two or three connector plate spaces.
* Item(s) sold separately.
