    2. Installation Procedures 
    WARNING:  ALTINEX recommends using an experienced prof essional to make the table cutout. Before starting, go to the ALTINEX website at 
    www.altinex.com and download the latest table cutout requirements, t emplates, and detailed installation instructions with diagrams. 
    Step 1.  Cut an opening into the table for the CNK20 0. Use the template and measurements provided on the A LTINEX website. The CNK200 is designed to fit 
    tabletops 0.5 - 3.5 in (13-89 mm) thick. 
    Step 2.  Insert the CNK200 into the table cutout and  secure it to the table using the 
    brackets and thumb screws provided.  
    Step 3.  Prepare cables for use with the CNK200. When  using retaining brackets to 
    hold cables in place, it is important to adjust the r etaining brackets close 
    enough together to prevent the cables from falling,  but loose enough to 
    allow the cables to be pulled up easily.  The cables  should be long enough to 
    be pulled up through the CNK200 and reach the equip ment. 
       If using preconfigured or customizable sectional pla tes, the cables need only 
    be long enough to mate with the cables/connectors on  the plates. 
    Step 4.  If desired, bundle like cables together using  a protective sheath, meshed 
    sleeve, etc.  Leave the free ends of the cables long  enough for making 
    connections to the equipment on the table. 
    Step 5.  Route the cables through the bottom of the u nit to the top. Use the cable 
    clamps provided to neatly route and secure the cable s to the bottom of the 
    table. 
    3. Limited Warranty/Return policies 
    Please see the ALTINEX website at www.altinex.com for  details on warranty and return policies.

    5. About Your CNK200  · 
    Installs easily into tabletop  
    · Convenient access to cables  
    · Simple, cost-effective interconnect solution  
    · Fits table surfaces 0.5 - 3.5 in (13 - 89 mm) thick 
    The CNK200 is a simple, effective way of hiding/storin g multimedia cables and connectors and is designed for  boardrooms and conference rooms. Cables remain 
    connected to a presentation system enabling the user to  access connections to AC power, video, audio, and other media sources. 
    The cables connected to the presentation system under neath the surface can be accessed from the CNK200 by e ither pulling the cables up and out of the top of 
    the unit (using retaining brackets) or by plugging ex ternal cables into sectional plates installed in the CNK200.  
    Retaining brackets secure cable ends where the brack ets can be adjusted to fit a wide variety of cable sizes.  Cables are pulled out from the top of the CNK200  
    when needed and then fed back down under the table  when no longer required. The weight of the cables helps to feed the slack through the unit and the cable 
    ends are kept from falling by the retaining brackets.   
    The CNK200 sectional plates allow for diverse connecto r configurations. Available plates include combinations of audio, video, computer, and AC power 
    connectors, providing extensive flexibility in a con venient package. The sectional plates connect permane ntly to the presentation system. 
    The CNK200 Cable-Nook is designed for use with tables  ranging from half an inch to 3.5 in thick. The height of the interior shelf can also be adjusted for 
    different depths. The CNK200 comes in a standard matte  black color, or the top of the unit can be finished to match a table on a custom per order basis at an 
    additional charge.

    Diagram 5: Twenty-Three (23) Hole Sets 
    The CNK200 can be customized for virtually any configuration required. Inside, there are 23 hole sets available for installing preconfigured plates, customizable 
    plates, or retaining brackets for holding cables.   
    In some cases, it is desirable to have the cables reside  in the Cable-Nook instead of requiring the user to provide their own cables. In this case, retaining brackets 
    can be positioned to keep cables installed under the t able from falling below the Cable-Nook’s interior she lf. The user simply pulls out the cable(s) needed and 
    connects them to a laptop, iPod, etc. 
    Shown below are some typical plate options with reta ining brackets. See our website at 
    www.altinex.com for a complete list of available plates and customizable 
    snap-in connectors.

    or other debris from damaging the unit. 
    7.2 Power/Signal Connections 
    Connect external devices to the appropriate connect or from the CNK200.
