prepared.
Step 2. Prepare the ating cables using high-quality cables for best results and durability. Make sure the cables are long
enough to allow for a service-loop and so the cables can be neatly routed beneath the table to their destinations.
Step 3. Prepare the network cables using the CAT-6 (RJ-45) connectors provided with the unit.* The connectors are
high-quality snap-in connectors and do not require any tools for installing the into the UT interconnect.
Step 4. Secure the unit under the table using the etal screws provided with the unit.
Step 5. Make any necessary connections to the snap-in connectors.
Step 6. Use cable-ties to secure the cables to the ounting shelf. Insert the ties through the holes on the botto of the
unit.
Step 7. Use the cable cla ps provided to secure the cables to the botto of the table/desk.
* Please visit our website: www.altinex.co for infor ation related to the pin out of the cables.
3. Limited Warranty/Return policies
Please see the ALTINEX website at www.altinex.co for details on warranty and return policies.

5. About Your UT Interconnect
The ALTINEX UT-Series of Under-the-Table AV Interconnects provide a wide variety of options for routing co puter audiovisual signals, network connections,
and AC power. Under-the-table options are ideal for situations where it is too expensive or i practical to install the routing interface directly into the furniture.
UT-Series are available in both U.S. and international versions. U.S. versions provide standard NEMA 5-15R receptacles; international units include AC
receptacles for Europe, England, and Australia. Additionally, the UT240-550 and UT240-551 include universal AC receptacles that accept various types of AC
plugs.
U.S. and international odels UT240-312, UT240-410, UT240-450, UT240-510, and UT240-550 also include a push-to-reset 15A circuit breaker.
Each unit co es standard with AC receptacles and 4 RJ-45 connectors. The UT240 connects to standard AC power outlets through a single 8 ft (2 ) power cord
that is per anently attached to the unit. The CAT-6 (RJ-45) connectors are snap-in style connectors that attach to a support bracket on the inside of the
faceplate; they are not bulkhead style connectors. The connectors ust be "snapped" out of the bracket, wired to the CAT-5/6 cable, and then "snapped" back.
Units with audio inputs have 3.5 fe ale inputs on the front of the unit and 3.5 fe ale inputs on the back via an 8 in (200 ) cable. The audio
receiving devices attach to the cable on the back of the unit.
Units with video connectors have fe ale-to-fe ale bulkhead connectors for both 15-pin HD and 24-pin DVI types. The video receiving devices attach to the
bulkhead connectors accessible on the back of the unit.

The UT240-312, UT240-410, UT240-450, UT240-510, and UT240-550
include a push-to-reset 15A circuit breaker. The circuit breaker is
accessible fro the left-hand side of the unit as viewed fro the front.
In the event the circuit breaker is tripped, do the following:
•Disconnect all AC devices fro the UT240
•Turn off the power switch of each AC device
•Push the circuit breaker reset button back in
•Reconnect the AC devices
•One at a ti e, turn on the AC devices
WARNING
WARNINGWARNING
WARNING
If the circuit breaker trips again, find the device that is drawing
excessive current. Check the ratings for each of the devices connected
to the UT240. If a device requires a significant a ount of power, it
should be plugged into its own supply circuit.
