Introduction
About the Hideaway ® Surface Access Products
The patented Extron Hideaway HSA 400 and HSA 402 are
furniture-mounted, architectural solutions for inconspicuous
computer video interface connector access and control.
The HSA 400 provides space for two double-space
(double-height) or four single-space Extron Architectural
Adapter Plates (AAPs), a standard grounded AC receptacle, and
two RJ-45 (Category 5/6) (CAT 5/6) connectors (figure 1-1). The
HSA is available in a US version, with a US power receptacle,
and an international version. Several different types of power
receptacles are available for the international version, including
Universal, UK, French, Israeli, Australian, Indian, European,
and Swiss receptacles.
The Universal AC outlet is fully compatible with
Europlug, British, Indian, Danish, and Italian plug
types. See the universal AC outlet guide on the Extron
Web site,
www.extron.com , for compatibility details on
all plug types.

The HSA 402 provides the same AAP space, but with two AC
receptacles and four RJ-45 connectors. The AC receptacles and
RJ-45 connectors are arranged symmetrically on opposite sides
of the AAP opening (figure 1-2).
In both models, cabling inside the enclosure runs the AC power
line(s) and RJ-45 signal lines from the HSA panel connectors to
connectors on the bottom of the enclosure.
With an optional conversion kit, one or more of the RJ-45 (data)
lines can be converted to an RJ-11 (telephone) line.

The installed enclosures fit nearly flush within a table or podium
top, storing the AAPs and connectors out of the way and out of
sight. To access the AAPs and connectors, the user presses
down on the top of the enclosure, releasing a mechanical latch.
A gas lift slowly tips the AAPs and connectors into view.

The functionality of the HSA enclosures can be optimized with
one or two RGB 580xi AAPs connected and routing video and
audio signals to one or two RGB 580xi Remote Interfaces
(figure 1-3, on the next page).
