Product Overview

The Crestron FT2-1200-MECH-PTL-B is a FlipTop FT2 Series cable management system sized at 1200mm for conference table installation. It features a mechanical (non-powered) operation mechanism and a pass-through lid design that allows cables to route through the unit without requiring the lid to be opened. The black finish suits dark table surfaces and contemporary conference room aesthetics.

Product Description

The FlipTop FT2 Series is Crestron's dedicated line of conference table cable management units, designed to provide clean, organized connectivity at the table surface. The FT2-1200-MECH-PTL-B is the mechanical variant, meaning the lid opens and closes manually without any electronic actuation—making it simpler to install and maintain in environments where motorized operation is not required. The pass-through lid is a key differentiator: cables can be left connected and routed through the lid when it is closed, eliminating the need to disconnect devices when the lid is down. At 1200mm, this unit is suitable for medium-to-large conference tables where multiple connection points are needed in a single assembly.

FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the mechanical and electronic FT2 variants?
A: The mechanical variant (MECH) opens and closes manually with no power required. The electronic variant uses a motorized mechanism for automated or touch-to-open operation. The mechanical version is simpler to install and has no electronic components to maintain.

Q: How does the pass-through lid work?
A: The pass-through lid has an opening that allows cables to route through the lid while it is closed. This means connected laptops or devices can remain plugged in without leaving the lid open, keeping the table surface clean.

Q: Can I add modules to this unit?
A: Yes. The FT2 platform supports Crestron accessory modules including power, USB charging, and AV connectivity options. Verify module compatibility with the FT2 MECH series before ordering.
