The Altinex CN5102US Dual AC Power Module is designed for use inside Altinex's Cable-Nook Jr. series of interconnect boxes but can
also be installed directly into furniture. The Cable-Nook Jr. is designed for boardrooms and conference rooms where it provides a
simple and effective means of hiding/storing multimedia cables and connectors. The cables remain connected to a presentation system
enabling the user to access connections to video, audio, and other media sources. The modular Cable-Nook Jr. uses a half-moon lid
that remains flush with the table when not in use.
The CN5102US module provides safe, ample AC power for users to power laptops, projectors, or other presentation equipment.
To access the CN5102US power module inside the Cable-Nook Jr., simply lift the door and plug in to the AC receptacles the same as
any other AC power outlet. The lid closes easily even with several cables in use.
