Installing the HPX-1600
5
HPX-1600 Retractable Connection Port
Installation Location Notes
The HydraPort system requires a mounting surface from 19mm (.75in) to 50mm (2.0in) thick.
The HydraPort system requires at least 383mm x 293mm x 159mm (zzin x xxin x yyin) of space below the mounting
surface.
If the system is to be mounted within a column, pillar or other enclosed space below the mounting surface, please note that
final assembly and termination will require the installer to have access to this space below the mounting surface.
Care should also be taken to ensure that the system does not interfere with the normal use of the work space.
For example, on a table or work surface, ensure that the system does not interfere with the user's legs when they are seated at the
table. Even when the system is deployed in the up position, the mounting system and shields occupy the entire space requirement
below the table.
Step 2 - Cut the Hole In the Mounting Surface
Use the HPX-AC-TK (FG559-90) and a suitable router with ½” arbor to create the hole in the mounting surface. FIG. 4 provides the
hole cutout dimensions for reference:
1.
Carefully measure the tabletop or other mounting surface to locate the desired position of the HydraPort unit.
2.
Apply the included double-sided tape mounting strips to the bottom surface of the HPX-AC-T router template, making sure
that the rounded edges of the mounting strips protrude slightly beyond the edges of the template (see FIG. 5).
3.
Use the alignment marks scribed on the template to align the template properly on the mounting surface (FIG. 5).
Note that due to the guide bushing and router bit, the final cutout will be smaller than the opening in the template. The
cutout in the mounting surface will be offset to the inside of the template opening by 1/8th inch (3.2 mm) on all sides.
Note both the position and orientation of the template relative to the table top or other mounting surface.
Note that very little clearance exists between the HydraPort assembly and the hole cutout in the mounting surface. Take
care to align the cutout carefully with the edges or other appropriate features in the table or mounting surface. If the
cutout is misaligned, the installed unit will be misaligned.
CAUTION:
Ensure the template is held securely on the mounting surface. If the template moves during the cutting process, the
cutout will be enlarged and will likely exceed the trim bezel of the HydraPort base assembly, requiring extensive repair to the mounting
surface.
