2. Installation Procedures 

Warning: 

Altinex recommends using an experienced professional to make the table cutout. Before starting, go to the Altinex website 

www.altinex.com

 and download the latest cutout requirements, templates, and detailed installation instructions. 

Step 1.  Cut an opening into the table for the CNK200. Use the template and measurements provided on the Altinex website. The 

CNK200 is designed to fit tabletops 0.5 - 3.5 in (13-89 mm) thick. 

Step 2.  Insert the CNK200 into the table cutout and secure it to the table using 

the brackets and thumb screws provided.  

Step 3.  When using retaining brackets to hold cables, adjust the retaining 

brackets close enough together to prevent the cables from falling, but 
loose enough to be pulled up easily.  The cables should be long enough 
to be pulled up through the CNK and reach the equipment. 
 
Preconfigured or customizable sectional plate cables need only be long 
enough to mate with the cables/connectors on the plates. 

Step 4.  If desired, bundle like cables together using a protective sheath, meshed 

sleeve, etc.  Leave the free ends of the cables long enough for making 
connections to the equipment on the table. 

Step 5.  Route cables through the bottom of the unit to the top. Use clamps provided to neatly route/secure cables to the bottom of the 

table. 

3. Limited Warranty/Return Policies
