ABOUT YOUR TNP500/502

2

The 

TNP500

 designed for installation into a table in a

presentation or boardroom, the Tilt `N Plug™
Configurable Tabletop Interconnect Box provides
access to multi-media input connections when
needed, and hides them when not needed. This unit
can be configured with a wide variety of data or A/V
connectors before shipment from ALTINEX.
Using a tilting angular construction with pneumatic lift
assist and a mechanical latching mechanism, the

TNP500

 can either "tilt up" into a raised position to

provide access to input plates, or it can be lowered
flush into the table when not in use. The unit is
opened and closed by pressing down on the top
panel.

Note that, while the 

TNP500

 is similar in many ways

to its predecessor (TNP100), it actually performs the
lifting function internally, and does not require the user
to lift the faceplate up. Only light pressure is required
to unlatch the top to open it, and slightly more
pressure to push the lid down and close the unit.

The 

TNP500

 provides six Sectional Plate slots on the

exposed faceplate, servicing one side of a table.
Signals are passed through the unit to the underside
of the table. A variety of sectional plate connector
configurations are available to populate the slots - see
Sectional Plate Accessories for a list of available
options. All Sectional Plates must be ordered
separately.

The 

TNP502

 is a "package" of parts that covers the

basic needs of many Tilt ‘N Plug users. When this
item is ordered, it ships as a completely assembled
product made up of: one TNP500 and a  SP3500SC
Sectional Plate, with input labels already engraved
The SP3500SC includes the following connectors:
two standard U.S. power receptacles, computer video
(15-pin HD), COM Port/RS-232 (9-pin D), composite

video (RCA), S-Video (4-pin mini-DIN), audio (2-
RCAs), computer audio (3.5 mm), modem (RJ11),
and network (RJ45) input connectors. All connectors
have 6 foot cables attached that feed through to the
bottom of the unit. The connectors and their labels
may be customized for a fee.
