The modular treatment

The Ackermann Cablelink Plus modular floorbox from MK Electric is suitable for managing data and power in raised underfloor applications. Built to be very robust, thanks to its high load bearing capability when in-situ, it is also designed to be installed easily and quickly.

Highlight features include market-leading load bearing that meets the latest legislation - BS EN 50085-2-2; self-closing lids in accordance with draft IEC 61534-22 and improved robustness with the inclusion of tougher cord caps that can't be kicked off. The introduction of square-shaped boxes and lids allows 900 rotations, giving contractors greater options in location, positioning and installing; and facility managers more flexibility during office re-designs. A choice of two frame sizes provides the option of using three or four modules so catering for the vast majority of typical applications.

Deeper back boxes, adjustable module and device tray heights help achieve increased plug top space or increased wiring space for CAT 6 compatibility by ensuring that minimum bend radii of cables are maintained. Installation time has been slashed thanks to a number of design enhancements that include quick release blades for 10-second tool-less fitting and quick fit two piece modules.

Common problems that typically affect end users have also been addressed. Staggered power plates ensure that plug top leads do not clash allowing workers the opportunity to make full use of all available outlets.
The module height adjustment feature means that items such as phone chargers that traditionally have bulky plugs which prevent lid closure, can now be used with the floor box lid closed, reducing the risk of tripping.

The Ackermann range and its Cablelink Plus modular floorbox deliver the specifier, developer, contractor and building manager a host of benefits - both in terms of speed of fixing and convenience in use - that raises the bar for floor boxes in commercial raised floor distribution applications.
