Retractor SM • Installation Guide
This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced technician to quickly install the Extron
Retractor SM Show Me® cable retraction modules in an Extron TeamWork® Collaboration System and
in compatible Cable Cubby enclosures.
Additional instructions are available in the TeamWork Collaboration System Installation Guide and the
installation guides for the individual Cable Cubby® enclosures and the Retractor SM User Guide. All
are available at www.extron.com.
NOTE: For information on safety guidelines, regulatory compliances, EMI/EMF compatibility,
accessibility, and related topics, see the Extron Safety and Regulatory Compliance Guide
on the Extron website.
Planning
Retractor SM modules can be mounted in a horizontal, vertical, or angular orientation depending upon under‑table clearance and
accessibility.
Horizontal mounting is recommended to provide maximum legroom and to protect the Retractors against accidental damage.
Be certain the Horizontal Mounting Bracket can be fastened under the table or on a table support without bending the pulley
system or forcing it from a perpendicular angle with the enclosure (see the Top View diagram on page3).
Vertical mounting is used where insufcient under‑table space exists for horizontal mounting or where under‑table access is
limited. Ensure the Retractor SM modules hang freely without touching the oor and are not obstructed under the table.
Angular mounting is used where insufcient under‑table space exists for horizontal mounting and tabletop to oor clearance
prevents vertical mounting. An additional mounting hole allows installation at an angle providing extra oor clearance.
• For horizontal mounting, a Retractor SM Horizontal Bracket Kit is required.
• A Retractor SM Filler Module is required to occupy unused Retractor space.
• Depending on the enclosure, various Retractor SM Mounts are available, both Triple and Quad.
NOTE: See the Extron website for a list of compatible Retractor SM Mounts and brackets to suit the application and
enclosure.
Mounting kits, bracket kits, ller modules, and accessories are available at www.extron.com.
For new installations, to determine the best location for the enclosure, keep in mind the under‑table space required for the
retraction system. Refer to the enclosure installation guide for mounting.
NOTE: Before starting an installation, determine if additional hardware is needed.

Getting Started — Determine Under-table Clearances
Follow the installation instructions provided in your Cable Cubby enclosure package to determine a suitable mounting location.
The diagrams that follow show the space required for a Retractor SM module installation in a compatible enclosure.
NOTES:
• To prevent objects from impeding cable retraction, ensure the exposed cable clears nearby obstructions.
• Excess cabling can cause clearance issues. Use zip ties to secure under‑table cabling to prevent accidental contact or
entanglement.
The Retractor SM module is mounted from below the enclosure.
