About the Cable Cubby 300, 600, and 800
Extron Cable Cubby products are furniture-mounted, architectural solutions that provide inconspicuous cable access and connection points. When cables are not in use, they can be stored out of the way while remaining connected to the presentation system.
Most US/domestic Cable Cubby models provide two unswitched USA AC power outlets. For international markets, several different types of power receptacles are available, including universal, UK, French, Australian, and European receptacles.
NOTE: The universal AC outlet is fully compatible with various plug types. See the
Universal AC Outlet Compatibility Guide on the Extron website, www.extron.com, for compatibility details on all plug types.
The four different sizes of Cable Cubby provide room for the indicated number of
Architectural Adapter Plates (AAPs):
•Cable Cubby 800 USA/domestic model — Eight single space (single height) AAPs
•Cable Cubby 800 (AC module optional) — Ten single space (single height) AAPs
•Cable Cubby 600 USA/domestic model — Six single space AAPs
•Cable Cubby 600 (AC module optional) — Eight single space AAPs
•Cable Cubby 300 USA/domestic model — Three single space AAPs
•Cable Cubby 300S — Square cover (see figure 1)
•Cable Cubby 300C — Circular (round) cover
•Cable Cubby 300 (AC module optional) — Five single-space AAPs
•Cable Cubby 300S — Square cover
•Cable Cubby 300C — Circular (round) cover

Figure 1. Cable Cubby 300S US/domestic Enclosure
The AAP spaces inside the Cable Cubby allow you to customize the enclosure to meet your unique needs. The split AAPs (included) can store almost any type of cable you might encounter. The Extron line of passive AAPs allows you to customize the AAP with almost any kind of pass-through connectivity you may need.
The elevation of the AAPs inside the cubby and the arrangement of the AAPs and the power outlets are adjustable to suit cable lengths and connector types.
The installed Cable Cubby fits nearly flush within a table or podium top, storing the AAPs and cables out of the way and out of sight. To access the AAPs and connectors, lift the lid (see figure 2). Half-moon cutouts in the lid allow you to run cables in or out and then close the lid. The lid can also be lowered into its recessed position.

The Cable Cubby 300 is available with either a round or a rectangular top. The other Cable Cubby models all have rectangular tops only. Preparing the table to install a Cable Cubby 300C (round) requires drilling a hole in the table with a 6-inch hole saw (see figure 3). Preparing the table to install a square cubby requires routing a square hole in the table top. Sheet metal routing templates are available (see “Routing Template Part Numbers” on page 19 for part numbers).

Installation
This section covers the following topics:
•Installation Overview
•Preparing the Routing Template
•Preparing the Table
•Installing the Cables and AAPs
•Mounting the Cable Cubby
Installation Overview
Install and set up the Cable Cubby enclosures as follows:
1.If you plan to use a mounting template that has not been prepared, prepare the template (see “Preparing the Routing Template” below).
2.Cut a hole in the surface where the enclosure will be installed (see “Preparing the Table” on the next page).
3.Run 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.
4.If 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 number 68-734-01.
5.Install all desired cables into the cable pass-through (split) AAPs and install the AAPs into the Cable Cubby (see “Installing the Cables and AAPs” on page 7).
6.If applicable, connect cables to the rear connectors on the passive AAPs and install the AAPs in the cubby (see “Installing the AAPs” on page 10).
7.Mount the Cable Cubby in the table (see “Mounting the Cable Cubby” on page 10).
8.Peel the protective film from the top surface.
9.Connect the Cable Cubby power cord.
Preparing the Routing Template
Extron offers metal templates for each Cable Cubby model; see “Routing Template Part Numbers” on page 19 for part numbers. Extron recommends using this template as a guide to cut the hole in the table where the cubby will be installed.
NOTE: The 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 inch x 4 inch strips of soft, finished lumber to a length that is long enough to span the distance between the desired installation location on the mounting surface and the edges of the mounting surface (see figure 4).
