This Pop ‘N Plug uses a custom cut-out tabletop surface  and hardware is attached underneath the cutout.  When closed, the PNP415/417 lays flat and matches

with the tabletop.  
The PNP415/417 design allows the connector panels to  be easily installed. Just remove the top and slide the connector panels into place.  In the open position, 
the PNP415/417 is functional yet maintains a smooth,  clean appearance. 
The PNP417 comes preconfigured with two standard DS90 1-120 sectional plates. Each plate includes the following connections: two AC power, one 15-pin HD 
(video), two RJ-45 (UTP), one RJ-11 (modem), and one  3.5mm audio. There are two plates and all connectors on the plates are female receptacles. Each signal 
connector is connected via a 6-foot cable to its corr esponding male plug at the opposite end. The AC power  cables are terminated with standard NEMA plugs at 
the end of 9-foot cords.
