Preparing the Installation Site
Take the following steps to prepare the installation site:
1.
Determine and obtain the electronics, MAAPs (Mini Architectural Adaptor
Plates), and cables required for this installation.
2.
Turn off all equipment. Make sure the computer, Extender, and output
devices (projector, monitor, etc.) are all turned off and disconnected from the
power source.
3.
Select an installation site that allows cable runs without interference. Allow
enough depth for both the floor box and the cables.
4.
Install the floor box in accordance with the instructions Ackermann provided
with the floor box.
5.
Route all cables required for the installation through the floor box and
terminate the cables with connectors if needed.
CAUTION
Exposed cable shields (braids or foil) are potential sources of short circuits.
To prevent short circuits, shields should be trimmed back or insulated with
heat shrink. Both braided and foil shields should be connected to an
equipment ground at the other end of the cable.
Identifying the Parts
The Extender AKM MAAP assembly, shown
at right, consists of the four metal pieces
(main enclosure, upper mounting plate,
lower mounting plate, and nut bar), blank
MAAP plates, an Extender line driver, and
the screws that hold it all together.
