5. About Your Tilt 'N Plug Jr. Interconnect Box
All Tilt 'N Plug Jr. pro ucts belong to a family of compact interconnection solutions
esigne for installation into a table as part of a presentation system. They are
esigne for mounting into a table, po ium, or other furniture to provi e a way of
connecting au iovisual equipment on top of the furniture to a presentation system
below the furniture.
All use the same core element; a multime ia input plate that can be "tilte " open
when nee e an pushe close when not nee e .
The TNP122 an TNP142 each incorporate two Tilt 'N Plug Jr. mo ules an are
operate in epen ently. The TNP142 is the same as a TNP122, but with the
mo ules factory-installe facing in opposite irections. The TNP131 is the same as a
TNP121, but with a roun bezel instea of a square bezel, the TNP141 is a TNP151
with a roun bezel, an the TNP126 is a TNP125 with a roun bezel.
All signals pass through the input plate irectly to cables on the un ersi e of the
table with no intervening circuitry. The use of a itional ALTINEX Signal
Management Solutions such as computer vi eo interfaces, istribution amplifiers,
an switchers may be esirable.
The input plate of the Tilt 'N Plug Jr. is accessible by pushing own on the top cover. The unit then auto-tilts open with help from an internal pneumatic spring.

All Tilt 'N Plug Jr. Signal Management Solutions come with a stan ar top an bezel offering a high quality matte black finish. Other finishes or special bezel
configurations are available upon request. Please contact an ALTINEX representative to iscuss custom options.
