The AAP spaces inside the cubbies allow you to customize the
enclosure to meet your unique needs, with the included split
double space AAPs and Extron’s full line of optional passive
AAPs. The split AAPs can store almost any type of cable
you might encounter. The line of passive AAPs allows you
to customize the AAP with almost any kind of pass-through
connectivity you may need.
The elevation of the AAPs inside the cubby and the arrangement
of the AAPs and the power outlets are adjustable to suit cable
lengths and connector types.
NThe elevation and arrangement of the power outlet
and AAPs in the Cable Cubby 200 are fixed and not
customizable.
About the Cable Cubby®Products
The Extron Cable Cubbies are furniture-mounted, architectural
solutions for inconspicuous cable access and connection points.
When cables are not in use, they can be stored out of the way
while remaining connected to the presentation system.
Most US/domestic Cable Cubby models provide two
unswitched USA AC power outlets. The US/domestic Cable
Cubby 200 provides one outlet. Each of the international
versions provides a single unswitched AC power outlet
appropriate to the region where the Cable Cubby is sold.
Several different types of power receptacles are available for the
international version, including UK, French, Israeli, Australian,
Indian, European, and Swiss receptacles.
The four different sizes of Cable Cubbies provide room for
the indicated number of Extron’s Architectural Adapter Plates
(AAPs):
• Cable Cubby 800 USA/domestic model — Eight single-
space (single-height) AAPs
• Cable Cubby 800 (international model) — Seven single-

Installation Overview
Install and set up the Cable Cubby enclosures as follows:
1If you plan to use a mounting template that has not been
prepared, prepare the template. See Preparing the Routing
Template, later in this chapter.
2Cut a hole in the surface where the enclosure will be
installed. See Preparing the Table, later in this chapter.
3Run all cables necessary to support the AC connector,
the cables stored in the cubby, and all planned AAP
connectors. Leave enough slack in the cables to connect or
route them before the cubby is installed in the table.
4If applicable, install the power module. If your location
requires electrical conduit, install an Extron flexible
conduit kit. Refer to the Flexible Conduit Kit Installation
Guide, Extron part #68-734-01.
5Install all desired cables into the cable pass-through (split)
AAPs and install the AAPs into the Cable Cubby. See
Installing the Cables and AAPs, later in this chapter.
6If applicable, connect cables to the rear connectors on
the passive AAPs and install the AAPs in the cubby. See
Installing the AAPs, later in this chapter.
7Mount the Cable Cubby in the table. See Mounting the
Cable Cubby, later in this chapter.
8Peel the protective film from the top surface.
9Connect the Cable Cubby power cord.
Preparing the Routing Template
Extron provides metal templates for the Cable Cubbies at no
charge. See Routing Template Part Numbers, in appendix A,
Reference Information, for part numbers. Extron recommends
using this template as a guide to cut the hole in the table where
the cubby will be installed.
NThe metal routing template is reusable. Do not discard
this template when the installation is complete. Save it
for installing Cable Cubby models of the same size.
1. Cut 1/2" x 4" strips of soft, finished lumber at least
long enough to span the distance between the desired
installation location on the mounting surface and the edges
of the mounting surface (figure 2-1).
These strips raise the routing template above the mounting
surface to provide room for the router’s collar, protect the
mounting surface, and extend the routing template’s reach
so that it can be clamped to the edge of the surface.
CDo not allow the wood screws to protrude through
the bottom of the wooden strips. Protruding screws
will mar the table when the template is used.

Preparing the Table
The preferred and recommended method for preparing the table
for square Cable Cubbies and one of two preferred methods for
the Cable Cubby 300C is to use the appropriate Extron routing
template and a router.
For the Cable Cubby 300C, another preferred method is to use a
6" hole saw.
Alternatively, for any model, you can use a paper cut-out
template (see appendix A) and a sabre saw or keyhole saw, but
this method is not recommended.
CThe opening in the table for the Cable Cubby should
be cut only by licensed and bonded craftspeople.
Exercise care to prevent scarring or damaging the
furniture.
The surfaces of the Cable Cubby enclosure have
screws and other protruding hardware that could
damage fine furniture. Do not rest the enclosure on
unprotected furniture.
Preparing the table with a router
Prepare the table with a router as follows:
CThe routing templates for the various Cable Cubbies
are not interchangeable. If you use the wrong
template, you will cut an improperly-sized hole. If
you use a larger template than required, the cut will
result in gaps in the table surface on either side of
the enclosure.
CEnsure that only the wooden strips on the routing
template contact the furniture. Failure to do so may
mar the furniture.
NThe metal routing template is reusable. Do not discard
the template when the installation is complete. Save it
for installing other Cable Cubbies of the same size.
1. Locate the desired mounting location on the tabletop or
other installation surface. Mark the location.
2. Place the mounting template assembly on the table,
centered on the mounting location. Angle the template
for the optimum positioning. If necessary, use a square to
ensure that the template is properly positioned. Extron is
not responsible for improperly positioned Cable Cubbies.
3. Once the template assembly is positioned properly, secure
the assembly to the table with C-clamps.
WWear safety glasses when operating the router.
Failure to comply can result in eye injury.
4. Using a router with a 5/8" (or 16 mm) outside diameter
guide bushing and a 1/2" (or 12 mm or 12.7 mm) diameter
straight router bit, carefully cut the opening in the surface
(figure 2-2).
Figure 2-2 — Cutting the opening with a router
5. Remove the C-clamps and the routing template.

Preparing the table with a hole saw
(Cable Cubby 300C only)
Prepare the table with a hole saw as follows:
1. On the tabletop or other installation surface, mark the 6"
circle, then find and mark the center of the circle.
WWear safety glasses when operating the drill.
Failure to comply can result in eye injury.
2. Using a portable drill with a 6" (or 152 mm) hole saw,
carefully cut the opening in the table surface at the
desired location (figure 2-3). Extron is not responsible for
improperly positioned Cable Cubbies.
CUse a portable drill with sufficient power to handle
the 6” hole saw. Exercise caution when handling
the drill and hole saw. Take care to protect the
mounting surface from damage.

Installing the Cables and AAPs
Each Cable Cubby 300, 600, and 800 model ships with one or
two moveable AAP shelf assemblies. The Cable Cubby 200’s
AAP shelf is fixed in place.
AAP shelf brackets (CC 300, 600, 800)
Each shipped AAP shelf assembly consists of a set of shelf
brackets and a number of cable pass-through (split) AAPs.
Depending on the Cable Cubby model, each set of shelf
brackets supports either two, three, or four single-space AAPs
(figure 2-4).
Four-Space Shelf Bracket
and Split AAPs

and Split AAPs
Two-Space Shelf Bracket
and Split AAPs
Figure 2-4 — Shelf brackets
The simplest way to install the cables and AAPs in the Cable
Cubby 300, 600, and 800 is to populate the shelf brackets with
split and/or standard AAPs outside the cubby and then install
the populated AAP shelf assembly into the cubby.
NCable cubby 300, 600, and 800 only —
On US/domestic models, the power module takes up
two AAP spaces. On IEC, EU, Swiss, UK, Israeli, and
Australian models, the power module takes up three
AAP spaces. Cable pass-through AAPs take two, three,
or four AAP spaces. Consider the arrangement of the
Cable Cubby AAPs when you install them so that you do
not waste AAP space.

Installing the power module (CC 300, 600, 800)
From the underside of the Cable Cubby, gently push the power
module into the desired position at the desired elevation. Secure
the power module into position with four Phillips head screws.
Installing the cables
Three half-moon cutouts in each set of cable pass-through (split)
AAPs loosely channel three cables in the cubby. Each channel
is padded with a split grommet to prevent cable wear. Each
channel and each associated split grommet is a different size
(figure 2-5).
Large

Large 0.625" (1.59 cm) 0.453" (1.15 cm)
Medium 0.562" (1.43 cm) 0.390" (0.99 cm)
Small 0.5" (1.27 cm) 0.312" (0.79 cm)
Figure 2-5 — Cable pass-through AAPs
A typical installation consists of a VGA cable, an audio cable,
and a network cable. In a typical installation, the VGA cable
runs in the largest channel, the network cable runs in the middle
(medium) channel, and the audio cable runs in the smaller
channel. In a non-standard installation, just match the diameter
of the cable to the size of the channel as best you can.
Install cables in the channels as follows:
1. Remove a segment of a set of split AAPs by unscrewing
the nuts on the underside of the bracket that fastens the
plate to the shelf (CC 200) or shelf bracket (CC300, 600, or
800) (figure 2-4, on page 2-7).
2. Rest the cables in the half-moon cutouts of the split AAP
segment still mounted on the shelf (CC 200) or shelf
brackets (CC 300, 600, and 800). Place the cables so that
the connectors that require inside Cable Cubby access
protrude from the front (black side) of the split AAP
segment.
3. Insert the screws of the split AAP segment that you
removed in step 1through the holes in the shelf bracket.
Ensure that the cables are free in the channels that the two
split AAP segments form without being pinched where the
two segments meet.
4. Secure the split AAP segment to the shelf (CC 200) or shelf
brackets (CC 300, 600, and 800) with the provided captive
washers and #4-40 nuts.
5. Slip the appropriate size split grommet over each cable
with the flange of the grommet toward the connector
that will be accessible inside the Cable Cubby. Snap the
grommets into the channels.
6. If applicable, snap the included hole plugs into unused
channels in place of the split grommets.
Installing the AAPs
The split AAPs can be replaced with passive Extron AAPs.
Replace a set of split AAPs as follows:
1. Remove the set of split AAPs to be replaced by unscrewing
the nuts on the underside the shelf (CC 200) or shelf
bracket (CC 300, 600, and 800) that fasten the plates to the
bracket (figure 2-4, on page 2-7).
2. Cable the rear of the AAP(s) to be installed before attaching
the AAPs to the enclosure.
3. Insert the screws of the AAPs through the holes in the shelf
or shelf bracket. Secure the AAPs to the shelf brackets with
the provided captive washers and #4-40 nuts.

Installing the shelf assembly (CC 300, 600, 800)
From the underside of the Cable Cubby, gently push the AAP
shelf assembly into the desired position at the desired elevation.
Ensure there is enough space above the AAP assembly for the
Cable Cubby lid to close completely. Secure the AAP shelf
assembly into position with four Phillips head screws.
NIf the AAP shelf assembly does not slide easily into the
cubby, loosen the AAP mounting nuts. Retighten the
AAP mounting nuts once the AAP shelf assembly is
installed in position.
Adjusting the cable position (CC 200)
The Cable Cubby 200 has three cable stand-offs (figure 2-6) that
allow you to set the height of the cables inside the enclosure.
Adjust the cable height as follows:
Loosen screws to
adjust side to side.
Remove screws to
adjust height.
Cable Stand-Off
Figure 2-6 — Cable Cubby 200 height adjustment
1. Insert the stand-off into the Cable Cubby and align the
stand-off with one set of horizontal slots in the side of the
enclosure. Choose the adjustment height that best lifts the
cable connectors off of the cable pass-through AAP and
yet still allows the lid to be closed.
2. Loosely install the Phillips head screws and washers as
shown in figure 2-6.
3. Install a second stand-off, in accordance with steps 1and 2.
4. Slide the stand-offs back and forth in the horizontal slots to
position them so that the cables easily rise and lower but
do not fall below the stand-offs.
5. Tighten the Phillips head screws to lock the stand-offs into
position.
6. Install and position the third stand-off, in accordance with
steps 1and 2and 4and 5to secure the remaining cables.
Mounting the Cable Cubby
WThe flanged edges of the top of the surface enclosure
are sharp. Exercise caution when the cubby is not
installed in a table to prevent personal injury.
CThe flanged edges of the top of the cubby are
bevelled to an ultra-fine thickness of less than
0.04 (4/100)” (approximately 1 mm). These
edges are soft and can be easily nicked or bent.
Exercise caution when handling and mounting the
enclosure. Mishandling can damage the appearance
of the enclosure.
1. Cable Cubby 300, 600, and 800 — If
screw clamps are installed, remove them
from both sides of the enclosure
(figure 2-7 on page 2-12).
NFigure 2-7 shows the installation of
a Cable Cubby 300C. Cable Cubby
300S, 600, and 800 installations are similar.
2. Remove the plastic strips that protect the corners of the
enclosure and the plastic film on the finished surfaces. If
a sticky residue remains, remove it with an appropriate

Replacing Cables or an AAP
Before you change the cables inside the cubby or replace one or
more AAPs on Cable Cubby 300, 600, and 800 models, you must
remove the AAP shelf assembly from the Cable Cubby. Use the
following guidelines as applicable:
1
Cable Cubby 300, 600, and 800 — If the Phillips head
screws on the front and rear of the cubby are blocked by
the table, remove the cubby from the table. See Removing
and Replacing the Cable Cubby, steps 1through 4, earlier in
this chapter.
2
Cable Cubby 300, 600, and 800 — Remove the AAP shelf
assembly(s) by removing the four Phillips head screws on
the front and rear of the Cable Cubby and gently pushing
the assembly out through the bottom of the cubby.

Adding an Additional Power Module
(CC 600 and CC 800)
Each additional power module occupies two (USA/domestic
models) or three (international models) of the cubby’s AAP
spaces, reducing the amount of AAP space available in the
cubby for cable pass through (split) or passive AAPs. Use the
following guidelines as applicable:
1
Replacement two-space, three-space, and four-space shelf
brackets and cable pass-through (split) AAPs are available
from Extron, and may be required to maximize the
remaining available space if you add a power module.
• Cable Cubby 200 models — Adding a second power
module is not possible.
• Cable Cubby 300 models — Adding a second power
module is not recommended. Depending on the
model, with a second power module, there is room
left for either only a single one-space AAP or no AAP
space left at all.
• Cable Cubby 600 and 800 international models — In
general, you probably do not need replacement shelf
brackets when you add an international module to
an international Cable Cubby, because the power
module replaces a three-space shelf that is standard
in all international cubbies.
Figure 3-3 shows typical configurations before and after
you add a second power module to an international
Cable Cubby 600.

•Cable Cubby 600 and 800 US/Domestic models —
You probably do need replacement shelf brackets
when you add a US/Domestic power module to
a US/Domestic Cable Cubby, because the power
module takes up two spaces in a cubby that, in its
standard configuration, is equipped with three-space
(Cable Cubby 600) or four-space (Cable Cubby 800)
shelves.
Figure 3-5 shows typical configurations before and after
you add a second US/Domestic power module to a
US/domestic Cable Cubby 600 and suggests rack shelf
configurations to replace the shelf space removed.

If the Phillips head screws on the front and rear of the
cubby are blocked by the table, remove the cubby from the
table. See Removing and Replacing the Cable Cubby, steps 1
through 4, earlier in this chapter.

Before you add an additional power module, you must
make room for the Cable Cubby by eliminating two
or three AAP spaces and the AAP shelf brackets that
support them. Remove the Phillips head screws on the
front and rear of the Cable Cubby and gently pushing the
assembly(s) out through the bottom of the cubby.

If desired, assemble and install replacement AAP shelf
assemblies. Remember that the cable pull function of the
Cable Cubby requires at least two AAPs. See Installing the
Cables and AAPs in chapter 2, Installation.
