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 up to 5 ft (1.5 m), 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.
Automate one-touch retractors by connecting the retractors in
a FlipTop to a control system and a switch or to a DMPS via a
single Cresnet cable. Custom programming can trigger all the
cables to retract after five minutes of no video being detected.
The retractor 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 pass-through module occupies two module slots 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 may 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).
The following one-touch, retractable HDMI® cable is offered:
FT2A-CBLR-1T-HD: 10.2 Gbps HDMI cable with a male
HDMI Type A connector at both ends.
The following 4K compatible cables offered feature a minimum
TMDS bandwidth of 18 Gbps to support ultra high-definition
digital video signals up to 4K60 4:4:4. Active circuitry is
employed for optimal performance.
l FT2A-CBLR-1T-4K-DP: DisplayPort™ cable with a male
DisplayPort connector at both ends.
l FT2A-CBLR-1T-4K-DP-HD: Cable with a male DisplayPort
connector at the source end above the table and a male
HDMI Type A connector at the sink end below the table;
converts DisplayPort to HDMI to allow connection of a
DisplayPort source to an HDMI input.
l FT2A-CBLR-1T-4K-MDP-DP: Cable with a male Mini
1
DisplayPort connector at the source end above the table
and a regular-sized male DisplayPort connector at the sink
end below the table; converts Mini DisplayPort to standard
DisplayPort to allow connection of a Mini DisplayPort
source to a DisplayPort input.
l FT2A-CBLR-1T-4K-MDP-HD: Cable with a male Mini
DisplayPort connector at the source end above the table
and a male HDMI Type A connector at the sink end below
the table; converts Mini DisplayPort to HDMI to allow
connection of a Mini DisplayPort source to an HDMI input.
l FT2A-CBLR-1T-4K-USBC-HD: Cable with a male USB
Type-C® connector at the source end above the table and a
male HDMI Type A connector at the sink end below the
table; converts USB-C to HDMI to allow connection of a
USB-C source to an HDMI input.

A USB-C power module is available to support charging devices:
FT2A-CBLR-1T-USBC-PWR: USB Type-C cable with a male
connector at the source end above the table and a male
USB Type-C connector at the sink end connected to a 60 W
USB-C adapter below the table (not included).
