Refer to www

the complete user guide and
installation instructions.
This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced
technician to install the Extron Cable Retraction System
for Cable Cubby
® Enclosures. Additional instructions
are available in the Cable Retraction System User Guide
available online at
www.extron.com.
Planning
The cable retraction system can be mounted horizontally or vertically depending upon under‑table clearance and accessibility.
The XL models, which provide additional cable length, can also be mounted at an angle. Where differences occur in mounting,
they will be noted.
Horizontal mounting is recommended to provide maximum legroom and to protect the retractors against accidental damage.
Vertical mounting is used where insufficient under‑table space exists for horizontal mounting or where under‑table access is
limited.
Angular mounting (XL models only) is used where insufficient under‑table space exists for horizontal mounting and tabletop
to floor clearance prevents vertical mounting. The XL enclosure has additional mounting holes that enable mounting at an angle
between vertical and horizontal.
• For horizontal mounting, a mounting bracket kit, part number 70-678-00, is required.
• Filler modules, part number 70-678-08, may be required to occupy unused retractor space.
• For Cable Cubby 200 applications, the CC 200 Mounting Bracket Kit, part number 70-678-10, is required. Mounting
instructions are included with the kit and are also available online.
• For DC Power retractors, refer to the list on the website for laptop compatibility. Always use a power supply recommended
by the laptop manufacturer.
Kits and filler modules 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. Once the optimal mounting location for the Cable Cubby is determined, follow the instructions for cutting a
hole in the table (if necessary) and mounting the enclosure. Then install the retractors, AAP brackets, AAPs, and power module.
NOTE: When AAP modules are relocated or removed to provide space for the retraction system, associated
AAP brackets may require reconfiguration or replacement. Before starting an installation, determine if
replacement AAP brackets will be needed. Replacement brackets may be ordered from the Extron website.
If there will be no under‑table access after the Cable Cubby enclosure is mounted, the retraction system must be installed before
the enclosure is mounted (see “
Alternative Solution — Drop-in Installations ” on page 8). Otherwise the enclosure may be
configured and mounted, then the retraction system installed from underneath.
