2. Installation Procedures 
The UT Series can be installed horizontally or vertically as shown. Typically, units are installed under a tabletop, but in 
some cases, it may be desirable to install a unit i nside a desk opening, or on the back of a desk or p odium. 
Step 1.  Locate the best position for the UT Interco nnect, but do NOT mount it to the surface until cables are ready. 
Step 2.  Prepare the mating cables using high-qualit y cables for best results and durability. Make sure the cables are long 
enough to allow for a service-loop and so the cable s can be neatly routed beneath the table to their destinations. 
Step 3.  Prepare network cables using the CAT-6 (RJ- 45) connectors provided with the unit.* The connectors are 
high-quality snap-in connectors and do not require  any tools for installing them into the UT interconnect. 
         
Step 4.  Secure the unit under the table using the m etal screws provided with the unit. 
Step 5.  Make any necessary connections to the snap- in connectors.  
Step 6.  Use cable-ties to secure the cables to the  mounting shelf. 
Insert the ties through the holes on the bottom of  the unit. 
Step 7.  Use the cable clamps provided to secure the  cables to the bottom of the table/desk.  
*  Not all units include network connections. Please  visit our website: 
www.altinex.com  
for information related to the pin out of the cable s. 
 
3. Limited Warranty/Return Policies 
Please see the ALTINEX website at www.altinex.com for details on warranty and  
return policies. 
Note: Connectors are provided but do not include cables. ALTINEX recommends a telecommunications contractor wire the  network

5. About Your UT Interconnect 
The ALTINEX UT-Series of Under-the-Table AV Interconnects provide a wide variety of options for routing computer audiovisual signals, network connections , 
and AC power. Under-the-table options are ideal for  situations where it is too expensive or impractical to install the routing interface directly into the furniture. 
The UT240-300 Series are available in both U.S. and  international versions. U.S. versions provide standard NEMA 5-15R receptacles; international units in clude 
AC receptacles for Europe, England, and Australia.   The UT240-550 and UT240-551 include universal AC r eceptacles that accept various types of AC plugs. U.S. 
and international models UT240-312, UT240-410, UT24 0-450, UT240-510, and UT240-550 also include a push-to-reset 15A circuit breaker. 
Each unit comes standard with 1 or more AC receptac les and 2 or more RJ-45 connectors. The UT240s conn ect to standard AC power outlets through a single 
9-10 ft (2.7 to 3.0 m) power cord that is permanent ly attached to the unit.  The CAT-6 (RJ-45) connect ors are snap-in style connectors that attach to a support 
bracket inside the faceplate. The connectors must b e "snapped" out of the bracket, wired to the CAT-5/ 6 cable, and then "snapped" back.  
The UT240-300 Series units with audio inputs have 3 .5 mm female inputs on the front of the unit and 3.5 mm female inputs on the back via an 8 in (200 mm)  
cable. The audio receiving devices attach to the ca ble on the back of the unit. The UT240-278 has a 3. 5 mm female input on the front and a terminal block  
connector with captive screws on the back of the un it.  
Units with video connectors have female-to-female b ulkhead connectors for both 15-pin HD and 24-pin DV I types. The video receiving devices attach to the 
bulkhead connectors accessible on the back of the u nit.
