1)
Verify that 68P round floor box or 68P-EXT floor box extension has
been prepared for installing the 68P-DV-KIT. The top surface of the
floor box or 6” extension will need to be cut 1/8" below finished
floor height as shown in Figure 1(below). Finished floor may be
carpet, wood, vinyl or ceramic tile.
2)
Pull data cable up through opening in box. Pass "through" cable
to other side of box and through conduit opening(s), see Figure 2.
NOTE:
Data cable may enter the box from either the two 1"
conduit openings (as shown), or it may enter through the four 3/4”
conduit openings.

arrangement.
3)
Assemble divider halves, see Figure 3A. Do not glue! Lower divider
assembly into 68P floor box so that data cables exit the floor box
on outer sides of the divider assembly. Verify the divider ramp
covers any data cable that runs through the box. Make sure
divider assembly is resting on the bottom of the 68P floor box,
see Figure 4.
NOTE:
When using the 68P-EXT floor box extension, the
68P-DVD-EXT Voltage Divider Extension (not included) is required.
Snap (do not glue) the divider extensions onto top of the Divider
Assembly provided, see Figure 3B.
4)
Make a mark on the divider sides where they meet the top of the
cut floor box, see Figure 4.
5)
Remove the divider halves or divider extensions from the floor
box. Make a second mark at 1/2” below or the next molded score
line on the divider or divider extensions. Score (cut) the divider or
divider extensions at the second mark and remove the cut portion,
see Figure 5.
NOTE:
When reinserted in the floor box, the top of the divider
assembly should be 1/2” to 9/16” from the top of the 68P floor
box, see Figure 7.
